Direct to Local Bank withdrawal not received

[#1]

i was transfer balance on 29.02.2023 through direct bank payment. but still not received the balance in my bank. what should i do Now?? please help

[#2]

I made a payment to an account that was deactivated without my consent. Here's what the bank says:
For international transfers originating outside the United States, we need proof called MT-103. For domestic transfers between US accounts, we need proof containing information such as IMAD or Trace ID.

Question:
1. Where can I get Trace ID or IMAD.
2. After being refunded by the bank, does the money return to the Upwork balance?

Hi, I just saw this today. I am using BDO Kabayan Savings to withdraw my funds here and I have no issues until March 1st. Usually, it only takes 24-48 hours after withdrawal for the amount to appear in my bank balance but now it's the 3rd day and I haven't received anything. I wonder what happened so I'm going to the bank tomorrow to inquire.

Hi Emmanuel,

Thank you for your message. I checked the fund withdrawal you are referring to and can confirm that the same has been successfully initiated on your Upwork. Please be informed that Direct to Local Bank transaction is processed within four business days. If the transaction still hasn't reflected on your account after eight business days, let us know and we will assist you further. Please also take note that bank holidays both in the U.S, and your location may affect these withdrawals. In the meantime, please check this help article for more information about Direct to Local Bank Timing and Fees.

Hi, I hope you are fine. On february 23rd I made a transaction to my local bank account, the get paid shows that the paiment is done successfuly on february 23rd (11 business days) but till now I didn't receive the payment. This is my first withdrawl from Upwork with an amount over 2k$. 

I call to my bank as well and ask them about that and they said, they don't receive any payment against this reference ID yet.

Can you help me to trace my payment or what is the issue actually?

Many Thanks

Best Regards,

Mohamed Amine

Please let us know if after 8 business days the funds are still not reflected in your account so we can initiate a trace for you. 

Feel free to check this help article for more information.
