Hi,
Dear Upwork Community,
I had set a payment method on Upwork with the correct bank account number but wrote the postal code in place of the postcode. Yesterday, I made a transaction but still have not received any payment.
Please guide me. Is it a delay due to bank holidays, or is the payment transferred to another account?
Best Regards,
Muhammad Hussain.

Hi Maggy,
Please note that international bank transfers can take anywhere from a few days to 2 weeks to be processed, depending on the banks involved and the transaction volume. As your client is based in the US, it's possible that the delay is due to the international nature of the transfer.
Before reaching out to Upwork, I would recommend you to:
- Double-check your bank account details in your Upwork account to ensure they are accurate.
- Verify with your local bank to see if there are any pending transactions or if they have any information on the transfer status.
If you still haven't received your payment or any updates after checking these, you can contact Upwork's Customer Support for assistance. To do so, you can follow these steps:
1. Log in to your Upwork account.
2. Click on the question mark icon (?) located in the top-right corner of the page.
3. From the drop-down menu, click on "Get Help" to access the Help Center.
4. Scroll down and click on "Contact Us" at the bottom of the page.
5. Fill in the form with the relevant details and submit your query. Upwork's support
team will get back to you via email or chat, depending on your preference.
Remember that Upwork's support team might take some time to respond due to the high volume of requests, but they will do their best to help you resolve the issue.
In the meantime, you can continue working on your gig as the delay in payment is likely temporary and not indicative of a recurring issue.
I hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck with resolving your payment issue.

Hi All,
I hope all are fine and doing well. I notice from last 2 weeks my funds are arriving too late in my local bank as compared to the past experience. Usually I received Upwork process email within 1 hour after withdraw request. In today case 10 hours goes but still not received processed payments email from Upwork. Please assist me with that. Thanks

Hi, I know funds take time to arrive in a local bank. But my concern is I did not receive a payment processed email from Upwork that usually i received within 1 hour. So when Upwork process my payment then i will receive it in my account.

Hey there Upwork
Yesterday I made a transaction from Upwork on 22nd March to my local bank account but I haven't received it yet in my bank account.
This never happened to me before, where ever I make a transaction from Upwork, it transfers the amount within 5 to 6 hours, but this time is been 4 days, and I didn't get the amount yet. Upwork also says it takes 4 business days to transfer funds and it's already been 4 days still I haven't received it.
Please I am curious, let me know how can I trace my payment using reference no, or should I wait more?
Kind regards Sajjad

Hello.
I withdrew my funds about 10 to 11 hours ago and I received my, "Payment Confirmation" email shortly after like I usually do, However Upwork has still not processed my payment and neither have I received the eMail or the notification that says, "Your Payment Has Been Processed" which I normally get after an hour or two.
This has never happened before and I'm really concerned about this. What's going on?
Mar 31, 2023 07:59:07 PM by Mykola A
Delays possible. I have delayng for day couple of times. Keep eye for email, you will be informed when done or some issues.
