Hello there, after more than 9 hours of waiting, I have not received my Mpesa withdrawal yet. What could be the possible problem? How quickly can this be solved? I am being told that the transaction was succeful from upworks end.

Hi all,
I checked and it appears some of the freelancers who posted on this thread are using M-Pesa while others are using Direct to Local Bank withdrawal method. I'd like to reiterate that I'm not aware of an issue that would be affecting recently initiated transactions, all of which are within the expected time frame.
Furthermore, I can confirm we received a confirmation from some freelancers using M-Pesa that they received their funds. For freelancers using Direct to Local Bank, we'd appreciate your patience and expect you'll receive your funds within the expected four-business day time frame.
Regarding questions about the payment processors Upwork is using, we won't be able to provide that information and Valeria shared more information earlier this week on this thread.
Please do follow up to confirm once you receive your funds or if you'd like to receive additional assistance (24 hours for M-Pesa, 8 business days for Direct to Local Bank transactions).
As an additional note, our team is reviewing all the reports we're receiving and so far all transactions are being processed as expected. We appreciate your reports and will continue to monitor and communicate on this thread.

Hi Goran,
I'm told MPesa funds were reprocessed on 20TH December, its now 27TH Dec and i am yet to receive the funds. Cumulatively, its now 11 days since i made the withdrawal. Are the funds lost? Is there a definite time frame?

Hello Community, I withdrew my cash on 16th Dec 2019. The money usually takes less than 30 minutes to hit my Mpesa Acc. To date, I have not received the cash. I have raised the issue and it's like they are too busy. They have requested my Mpesa statement twice doing nothing about it.

Zero progress about my money issue. I withdrew money on 16th and I haven't received it yet. I feel upwork do not take my case seriously.
There has been no progress since then, you just keep sending me templates of emails upon templates.
Are you guys doing any trace of my funds?? How can I talk to your agents?
Dec 25, 2019 01:21:26 PM by Bojan S

I checked this for you and our team sent you an update today on this support ticket. As our agent confirmed, the trace was already initiated. Once our team has more information they'll update you directly on your open support ticket.

It has now been over 48 hours since I requested payment to my Mpesa and I am yet to receive the funds. There's an open ticket on the issue but no one is bothering to update me on the matter. No one is bothering to help me. The countless agents I have spoken to keep telling me to wait 24 hours or that they will request an update for me, but I am yet to receive any updates and it's been 48 plus hours now. Can someone please help me, this has been really inconvenient.

Why is it that people who had a similar issue had their cases resolved within a day and mine is headed to three days now?
Apr 17, 2020 07:05:31 AM by Gliceria W
How long did it take for you to get your funds, cause it's now heading to three days and I am yet to receive my money. And I didn't withdraw on the weekend.

Thank you Shirlyne, but a week is so inconvenient given that they initially tell you it will take 24 hours only.

after one business day, I contacted customer support. they were helpful. they reversed the transaction on the third day. but I had to present my mpesa statement.
Just find a customer support agent, you'll get the help you need
