Hi. I have an error in my payment method. "Invalid IBAN Number. IBAN is different than account number and may vary by country."
https://www.xe.com/ibancalculator/sample/?ibancountry=turkey This is Turkey's IBAN format. I do the same thing but still getting error. How can I fix this?

I think I found the problem. It's about the swift code. My bank's swift code seems TGBATRISXXX. When I delete the last 3 character(xxx) it works. Try this.

Nope! It doesn't work, buddy. You need to delete the space between the numbers. Don't make people go in the wrong direction.

Hi there!
My personal bank account Iban is counted as invalid many times even though the swift code and the iban of the bank matches. I've used another account of my friend and withdrawn my money but now it was returned due to a problem called "unable to apply" I dont know why I can not use my IBAN number. I've used two different banks but it is no use.

Hello. I'm having the same issue.
Invalid IBAN Number. IBAN is different than account number and may vary by country.
Turkey's IBAN format is known worldwide. Ex; TR33 0006 1005 1978 6457 8413 26. Even you try to enter with or without TR, with or without spaces, Upwork doesn't accept the format as too many freelancers mentioned earlier. Please find a solution and reply back.
Thanks in advance.

Invalid IBAN Number. IBAN is different from account number and may vary by country.
Hi. I have an error in my payment method. “Invalid IBAN Number. IBAN is different from account number and may vary by country.”
In the Netherlands, the IBAN reference number consists of the current bank account number preceded by the country code NL, a 2-digit control number and the (abbreviated) name of the bank. For example: NL89-BANK-0123-4567-89. I tried with space and without space between ciphers, but still getting error.
Can you please guide me how to add my IBAN number?
Thanks in anticipation.
