Beneficiary name is mismatched

[sandee_miranda]

My direct to bank payment method has been deactivated since my upwork account name does not match the name in my bank account---this is because I previously used my nickname when I created this account.

But I have already edited my details to replace my nickname with my full name here in upwork. Any chance you could have my payment method activated already?

Thank you!

Hello,

My payment method got deactivated after more than a year of using it. I am using my legal name on my Upwork profile and bank account. This is the same name that appears on my government issued ID which I submitted for name verification last year. Upon checking my contract with my client, it shows that there is a typographical error with my verified name. How do I request for a review or update on my verified name? Thank you.

[g_vasilevski]

Hi Aimee,

I checked your account and I can confirm that your payment method is active and you can withdraw your funds at any time. Thank you.

Hi, I have this same problem. however the names in account and bank are the same. I tried to reach upwork with this issue, in the support area, but the bot gives me a ticket number that when I search for it does not give any result (My Requests area).

Can someone please assist me with this issue?

Thank you!

Hi,

I deleted my paypal account by mistake, I tried to place the same account and the message came out: "The beneficiary name is mistmatched".

I wanted to delete the account because I have two paypal accounts.

Can I change the account to another with another email address?

For now I put the one that I have always used. How can the problem fixed?

Thanks.

Best regards.
