[#2]

Yes, I called them and get my account activated. I used 3 different cards and also those 3 cards on my brother's account but the same problem It deducts amount (Rs1) but then doesn't process payment.

I have tried at different times. I also tried activating ecom session via mobile app(multiple times).

No helpful contact, no replies, no issue solving, no email replies. no user-friendly customer support platform. Very disappointed with the service. I am providing better customer support on a dropshipping store website LolZ. If the customer is not happy with the product I say keep the product, get your cashback and I will give you a voucher so that you can buy anything for free cost from the website to compensate.

Upwork can hire me to improve their customer support. Such a big company, a big shame and a small issue.

[#5]

Thank you for your feedback, Nouman, I will share it with our team.

Could you also confirm if you need help with something? If yes, please share more details with me here or via PM. Thank you.

I'm buying the plus membership, but it says, "Your payment could not be processed. Please choose an alternate payment method or retry again later". I dont know why. I have sufficient funds in my payoneer card. Instead of that, Iam facing this issue for the last 4 hours. Can you please help me resolve this issue?

Please try to upgrade to our Plus plan by adding a Billing Method and then changing your plan. Thank you.

Hi Mian,

I checked this for you and was not able to replicate the issue you're experiencing. Could you please clear your cache and cookies or log in with another browser to check if you`re still experiencing the same issue? Please use this link to see the options available to you and add one of those. 

Let us know if the issue persists.

Thank you.

[#11]

hey i cleared browser cache did everything u said several times but still it says

"Your payment could not be processed. Please choose an alternate payment method or retry again later."

should i wait for 3 days beacause i added this billing method yesterday.

And when i try to add an alternative payment method it declines the whole card and says 

"We are unable to authorize your card. Please add another billing method or contact your issuing bank"

Please help i want to buy connects so much of my time is getting drained.

[#12]

Hi Mian,

Once you`ve added a billing method you will need to enter the amounts of the 2 small charges in order to complete the verification. 
Once the verification is completed, you will be able to use your billing method to purchase connects. Thank you.

[#13]

thanks for replying!Can you please elaborate on that "you will need to enter the amounts of the 2 small charges in order to complete the verification."

Where should i put 2 small charges to complete the verification?i dont see any option like that.

And will it take three days for upwork to verify?

[#14]

Hi Arslan,

I checked and, unfortunately, it looks like the authorization is being declined by your card issuer/bank. We don't have any further information and you can either discuss this with your bank or attempt to use an alternative payment method to purchase connects.
