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!

**Edited for Community Guidelines**
This is the message I get while adding the payment method. I have already verified by video chat and ID card. There is a verified badge showing on my profile. The issue still persists after having cleared the cache and changed the browser. Kindly guide me through this

Hello
I added a payment method today and I was told that my payment method has been deactivated because the beneficiary name on my payment method does not match the name on my Upwork account.
Meanwhile, my Upwork account has been verified and the name on my ID is the same as the beneficiary name on my payment method and they both differ from my Upwork account profile name by 1 alphabet.
I don't how to resolve this problem should I change my Upwork profile name to match the beneficiary name in my payment method? or what else can I do?
Thank you in advance for your help.

I have the same problem and the "manual verification" came back with an automated reply. I have been on Upwork for years and never had a problem. All I want to do is add my Paypal account here. My email address (so my account No) on Paypal is the same as on Upwork, simply my name with a number since my name@gmail was already taken. How can a "manual checker" not see that? I cannot use Payoneer anymore since the security is non-existent and cannot add Paypal... Now what? IMPOSSIBLE to get a human to answer me...

The "team" just sent me, once again, an automated reply that does not answer my question! Is it possible at all to have a human reply to me???
Jan 21, 2021 03:21:38 AM by Goran V

Sorry but I cannot see how a human, any human, can see a "mismatch" between Marie Capelle and Marie Capelle... Why don't "they" tell me what they consider a "mismatch" between my name and my name instead of coming back constantly with the same reply that does not answer the question ? I only have one name... the same across all the platforms and payment methods I use. And why have a problem with that (the "mismatch" they cannot define) now, when I have been on Upwork for a long time and withdrew before without any issues? I am now worried that somewhere my account might have been hacked or there is a mix up somethere...

Hello, I just did a verification check today and it went well however afterwards i noticed that when I wanted to withdraw money, it said my beneficiary name is mismatched. This could possibly be because my last name has an apostrophe in it and I sometimes have trouble with sites that may not include it or recognize it. My full name is Michael d'Entremont on my upwork account and bank account and I even did a video call to verify that I am indeed who I say I am. I noticed someone post about this same situation on this board and get a response so I will do that as well. Thanks!

I am trying to set up the payment for my account. I have set up my personal account, but using a company account for payment, however the company account is also a sole proprietary concern. So there is a mismatch in the name. How do I get this resolved?

hello i have a problem setting up my bank account as it mismatch on my name. My bank account uses my fullname while upwork as you can see I use my name and only the initial of my surname.
Feb 2, 2021 10:10:20 PM by Joanne P
Hi Ritchell,
Please know that freelancer profiles only show the first name and the initial of the last name, however, if the name you have added in your account and in your bank account matches, then it shouldn't be a problem. I've also requested the assistance of our team to check and assist you further.

Hi, I'm having a likewise problem; I tried to add my payment method but it got deactivated instantly and was later manually declined, because my name didn't match my payment method. Which is weird because my bank account contains my initials and my last name. I already sent in my ID for the ID verification, which shows those middle names. I retried a week ago but its still in progress.
