The beneficiary name is mismatched

Hello there,

 

at my payment methods it says that the beneficiary name is mismatched, I guess because my surnames in my bank account have accent marks and in my Upwork profile I can not put them.

Any chance you could have my payment method activated already?

 

Thank you!

Hi,

 

I am getting the below-mentioned error.

"Your payment method has been deactivated because the beneficiary name on your payment method does not match the name on your Upwork account."

 

Name on the bank account is the name of my agency which is a legal entity named "**Edited for Community Guidelines** " of which I am the designated partner/ owner.

 

How do we verify the beneficiary name in such a scenario?

 

Cheers,

Amit

Can you please help me with this issue? I'm worried I can't get my salary about this error. My name on my Upwork profile is my legal name but I still have this error.

Hello Arjay,

I'm having the same issue. I thought it might be because of the language issue in the banking system because my name is actually Müjde Özgümüş.  Can I ask your name?

Many Thanks in advance

I have been having the same issues for the past 10 days, and support is not even responding as to what the problem is? I have tried 2 bank accounts, but it keeps saying mismatch! The best part is that when I raise a support ticket, it automatically closes and is marked as solved. I have not received any response from the support team and all have been marked as closed. I even shared my banking details, but nothing yet. , I have read all the FAQ's and all the step by step community pages, and the problem still exist. what is going on here? least tell me the problem that needs fixing

I guess we have a BOT replying here and no one even bothered to read the message! If you had read It, this would not have been the response. It's been already 6 days !! forgot 48 hours, !

Customer services have not responded, is this a joke! AT LEAST READ THE POST!! THE PROBLEM

Hi Ammar,

 

Not a bot, and I can assure you I've read your post. The details were last entered into the system last June 30. If you added your details prior to this date and re-added them when you got the mismatch error, this resets the timeframe for our support team to review the name mismatch on your account. I suggest that you wait for 48 hours to elapse, and when we find an issue, we'll send you an email with instructions on how you can correct this.

My last entry was 3 days ago, that's way beyond 48 hours, 6 days ago I raised a ticket that was closed, without a response and no resolution, and still a block on withdrawal, after that, I raised another ticket 4 days ago, another one 3 days ago. I have provided data and bank account details twice and waited for more than 3 days each time, I am not even getting a response from support and they are all being closed. ! 

All data matches, but still a block for more than 72 hours. Look at the screenshot!

Hi Ammar,

 

I just checked your account and one of our agents already replied to your ticket and the name mismatch has been resolved already. Please let us know if further assistance is still needed.
