Hi Oluwatobi, 

If the action buttons that you usually use are grayed out, the Trust & Safety team may have suspended your account. In that case, you will have received an email about the action on your account. You can reply to the email to find out more about the action we’ve taken.

 

That said, if you need to contact support regarding your financial account, you can:

 

  1. Please visit Contact Support and click the ‘Chat with Upwork' button.
  2. Type a question or topic and select ‘Send’. The bot will find relevant Help articles for you.
  3. The chatbot will ask you to confirm if you need additional help. If you confirm that you need additional help, you will be asked to confirm the account type you need help with.
  4. From there, the support options available to you will be listed. Select either of the options to be able to contact the Upwork Support Team.

 

 

Update: 

 

This thread has been closed from further replies due to its size. We appreciate your participation in the Community and welcome you to continue the conversation on this new thread.

 

Thank you!

Hi Upwork teams, Greetings.

 

This is Chari and I've been using my Upwork account for over 2 years now.

Even though I haven't been very active, I recently received payment for an order but my account says "Your financial account -__________- has been suspended due to issues with payment methods on file. Please update payment methods to restore full functionality to your account.".

 

The payment method I chose already exists.

Please help!

Hello! My account was suspended due to a lack of money on the payment method connected.

 

I resolved this by connecting a new billing method and paying all the bills, but still, I can not submit applications as a freelancer.

 

Can you help? Appreciate it.

Our bank card was out of date so our account transactions were limited.

 

I have now updated the card and paid the outstanding bill but nothing has been fixed?

 

Can anyone help me?

Hi,

 

I've been hired for almost 2 weeks and have not received any payments from my client or might be a problem with Upwork, already ask my client if they already pay to Upwork and he said yes. After that I receive a notification on my account which tells "Your financial account -Cristopher Bobis (42427228)- has been suspended due to issues with payment methods on file. Please update payment methods to restore full functionality to your account." for no reason, I didn't do anything but this problem occurs. Anyone can help me? Need the money for my son's 1st month.

Posting on the forums because support has not responded to my ticket at all after 48 hours plus. My PayPal account was limited due to an incorrect unusual activity detection, which led to my Upwork financial account being suspended a few days ago. Since then, my active and potential clients have all gone non-responsive. I suspect that Upwork is giving a warning to people I message that my financial account has been suspended (like they do for us when it happens with clients). 

 

Any help with this? I already have added two new valid payment methods and it is still suspended. I still can't buy connects and I am unsure if I can be paid for my hours.

Hi,

My financial account was suspended and I recovered it by updating my billing information, but now I can't propose a new contract to my existing client and all of my proposals are withdrawn or archived on my freelancer account. How can I resolve this issue I already resolved the suspension issue by updating my billing information and I am unable to contact customer support about it.

When I try to propose a new contract, I get the following error: 'You can’t propose a new contract at this time. Please contact customer support to learn more.'


Thank you!
