Direct to Local Bank withdrawal not received

[#1]

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.

Yes 😀. My local bank is BDO

[#3]

We have the same Bank! I'm also with BDO. Do you think we can receive it later ot tuesday max? Need my fund badly 😔

This is my 1st time experiencing this kind of delay. Usually I get to receive my funds within 1-2 hours after processing. 

[#4]

Based on my withdrawal last 10/01, I think it should be in by 8 AM EST Monday

[#5]

Sams here. My fund withdrawal is delayed. My bank is metrobank. Usually if the fund is delayed, it will be deposited monday evening if not, until wednesday. Thats what I always experience when my fund is delayed. If you still didnt receive it by wednesday, thats the time you need to contact upwork support or your bank.

Hi,

I cashed out last Friday afternoon to my Local Bank BPI and until now I haven't received the amount on my account. This is not the first time I've cash out using BPI. Any thoughts on this?

How do I send a ticket regarding this? Or should I wait?

[#7]

Hi,

I think you should not wait and bring into Upwork notice ASAP.

Thank you!

Upwork sent email notification that my payment is processed last Oct 7, 9:20pm. But it hasn't come thru to my BPI account yet. I called my bank about it, and they have't receive anything from upwork for them to process. Would just like to ask Upwork on your end what's the status or what may be the reason? Usually when I request payment process, it only takes 3 hours. But this is the first time it hasn't gone thru to my account for 3 days.

wait

[#14]

will appreciate your help! 😊

[#15]

You mean withdraw money from upwork to your local bank, right? I think because the bank not work in Sat and Sun, so you will receive on bank by this Tue 

[#16]

The same exact situation here, Upwork encountered a payment processing issue last October 7. I already received an email confirming that the payment has been processed but until now, the funds haven't been posted on my UB account. Very frustrating! 😆

[#17]

 Support has been blowing up since Friday, October 7th. Imagine the que is 85 persons in chat support

[#18]

same issue...already contacted upwork about it to ask for the reference id so bpi can check the transaction but no email from upwork yet...the support will just say to wait for 2-4 days but it has been 4 days and the funds are not yet reflecting on my account which is very frustrating...the agent i spoke with earlier said that today is a holiday in the US...but i always get my funds within the day even during the weekends and holidayw without delay

[#19]

I think we should exclude weekends. I'm expecting our money should come in Wednesday.

[#20]

never had a problem before even during weekends and holidays...funds are always transferred within the day

[#21]

Yes and they never help they just tell you to wait super useless...why do we have chat support but they cant do anything wtf

This is not helpful. We know that there's a problem and you won't just admit it.

[#24]

Correct! I've been asking support if there's been an error on the Upwork side because there's no problem on my bank's end. They keep on repeating this script all over again. So disappointing!

[#25]

We also know that this is just a copy-paste script given to you.

You just won't take responsibility and admit that there's a problem because if there's not then please explain and give us a concrete answer why many of us are experiencing the same issue globally.

[#26]

please understand the word "moderator" hes just here to moderate this thread not to take responsibility if there is a system issue. also the instant direct withdrawal started during the covid pandemic to help us get our salary quicker. before pandemic its during wednesday and you will get it by friday around 3 working days. so if you withdraw funds last friday expect it on tuesday afternoon. 

also there is an attached estimated date on the processing funds email. complain when it went past that date.
