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.

Hello,
are you also having problems with the payment confirmation email? Please update me as I am having the same issue. They said I needed to wait for 3 days. before they can track the funds.

I am experiencing a similar problem too. I tried to withdraw yesterday via the "Direct to Local Bank" method. This is over 24 hours now and I am yet to receive the money on my bank account. I have been using this method of withdrawal for more than 2 years and it usually takes about 30 minutes for me to receive the money. I contacted a support agent today and it was confirmed that the withdrawal has been processed. The agent told me that withdrawal can take up to four business days for the money to get to my bank. So I have to wait for four business days before I complain again if I don't receive the money.

Thanks, Avery. My issue has been resolved. I received a notification from my bank this afternoon that I have received the money. But I noticed that the payment agent is different from the agent I normally see on previous withdrawals. I think that is why a lot of people are experiencing the same issue.

I initiated a withdrawal in the last 24 hours and it was processed by Upwork but I'm yet to receive the withdrawal at my local bank.

Hello,
Can anyone tell me what's going on? I have withdrawn my funds last ( Dec 18, 2019 ) I receive an email that I have successfully withdrawn my funds. Normally it would only take 8 hours I would receive the second email that they are transferring my funds to my local bank. It has been more than 24 hours since I have not received it. Supposed to be today I have the funds on my bank. I am very upset that this is happening since I have bills to pay and xmas is fast approaching and I am depending on my salary. Delay for me means disaster. I hope somebody can help me out with this. This has never happened to me since I started working here in Upwork.

Hi, I would like information about my last withdrawal request REF. ID 275322715 of 366.66 $, of 18 december as per schedule.
Usually I receive 2 emails, 1 with the start of the withdrawal as per schedule, and then after a few hours I receive another email where I confirm that the payment was processed with the exact amount in Euro.
With the withdrawal of 18 december I did not receive the email that the payment was processed.
Thanks

Can no moderator answer me? I also opened a ticket with support, but they don't know where my money is.
The clients I work with are very upset about this because they paid, but I received nothing.
My bank has checked and there is no bank transfer coming into my account.
I point out that my payment has not been processed and in fact I have not received any confirmation email.
I'd like to know one thing: if the money isn't on the Upwork account, now where is it ????
