Hi Sandeep,
Thank you for your message. I am sorry to hear about the trouble while purchasing Connects. In general, this happens when the transactions you’re attempting on your card keep being declined by the bank. Please contact your card-issuing bank for more information about the specific charge decline.
If you’re still experiencing issues after checking with your bank, a quick way to contact our support team is by clicking the 'Chat with Upwork' button on the Contact Support page.
Update:

Hi,
I've encountered difficulties purchasing connects as each attempt with various cards from different banks resulted in an "unauthorized card" prompt. Despite multiple discussions with the bank, they consistently assured me that everything is in order from their end. Can anyone provide assistance with this issue?

I made a transaction of 3.54 dollars for 20 connects, but I did not receive the 20 connects in my Upwork account and 83.39 Rupees were deducted from my account. Please either refund the money back to my account or update connects in my account.

I want to purchase connects from my chosen Billing Method, not from my earnings.
Is there any solution to this problem?

Hi Nabeel,
We appreciate your interest in buying Connects. Please know that the system can only use your billing method to purchase Connects if you don't have an available balance on your account. I understand you'd prefer to be able to choose which one to use so we will be noting your feedback and sharing it with the team

Hi Harsh,
I checked your account and it looks like the only other available billing method for you is Paypal.
