Unable to apply funds. Paypal.

Hello, as you see, i have problem with getting paid. Everytime i try to withdraw founds, i got this mail:

Hi Mirza,

We attempted to process your recent payment request but unfortunately it failed.

The reason for returned funds: Unable to apply funds.

As a result, the funds have been returned to your Upwork account and we need you to update your payment method for future payments.

 

Can you please help me, 

 

Thank you!

Hi Andrey,


In general, PayPal is not servicing customers in Ukraine for commercial payouts or mass payouts. Users in this region can send peer-to-peer payments or transfer funds from their PayPal wallet to an eligible credit card or debit card, but no Upwork payouts as these are commercial. You can contact PayPal directly for questions on any funds you currently hold with PayPal and consider adding an alternative payment method.

What do I need to do to make transactions work and I can withdraw money? Help!

Hi Artem, 


I looked into this further, and it looks like Paypal rejected the transaction. I'm sorry, but I don't have additional information to share. It would be best to check this directly with Paypal's Customer Support Team so that they can share more details as to why the transaction was rejected.

Hello, friends!! Unfortunatly, Im having the same problem. The payment method was added a month ago. PayPal have all permissions from Upwork (checked them in the settings). I have tried to withdraw manually with "Get Paid" button, and got the same result. Can Moderators help me?

Hi Andrey,
Scheduled payment of $ via PayPal account failed, and the money has been credited back to your Upwork account. Review your payment method information.
In order to ensure minimum disruption to your account, we have placed a pause on your scheduled payments. You can edit your payment method and re-enable your schedule. If you are still having trouble with your payments, contact Upwork Support.
