Name Mismatch on ID Verification

I recently added my primary billing method but I used my Uncle's card (with his permission ofcourse). Then I got the prompt to verify my ID but the name of my uncle is showing. I can't seem to change the name even though I changed my billing method to my card. Please let me know how to resolve this issue. If I put my Uncle's ID in verification, would that solve the problem? Upwork account and withdrawal method is in my name along with the billing method now too.

Hi Shariq,

 

Please note that you can use a bank account that's in your name or is a joint account that has your name on it as a withdrawal method. 

We'll have one of our agents reach out to you via support ticket to assist you with your payment method verification process.

Thank you for reaching out to us.

Hello,
You misunderstood the problem.
I have attached the image of the problem i am facing.
As you can see my name is Shariq Attique and in the image it says Muhammad Rashid Khan which is the name of my uncle who's debit card i used (ofcourse with his permission). Now i want to change that name with my name which i am unable to do because it is not giving me the option to change that name.
I am unable to change that name even after when i have removed his debit card and added my debit card in place.

Please solve this problem soon.
Thankyou.

Hi Goran,

 

With respect , I am also stuck in this same process, as I used my friends credit card to receive payment, can you guide me how to resolve the issue?

 

Thank you

You cannot use someone else's card or ID or payment method in your profile. To resolve this, you have to use a method that is yours.
