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 all,

Hi Ashish,
My bank has confirmed me that Upwork has confirmed the validity of my card, when I added it as a payment method and thereafter neither any payment request has been received nor any error/ transaction decline log is available with the bank.
Furthermore, I am also unable to buy connects from my upwork balance.
Therefore, I believe there is some technical glitch which can only be resolved by Upwork technical team.
Thanks
