Direct to Local Bank withdrawal not received

Hi,

Dear Upwork Community,

I had set a payment method on Upwork with the correct bank account number but wrote the postal code in place of the postcode. Yesterday, I made a transaction but still have not received any payment. 

 

Please guide me. Is it a delay due to bank holidays, or is the payment transferred to another account? 

Best Regards,

Muhammad Hussain.

Hello community

I have requested payment since November 07, until today I still haven't received it.

I wrote to the support, they said to wait 08 days. The 08 days have passed, yet I have not received any payment.

 

Please tell me, have I infringed a rule FireShot Capture 357 (1).png?

That said, the 8 working days will be over on Saturday, Nov 19th. If you do not receive funds after 8 working days, contact us here and we will be happy to assist you further.

Your specific bank transfer time will vary depending on a range of factors, including fraud prevention, different currencies, different time zones, and bank holidays/weekends.Online payment gateway in uae. In general, the bank transfer time will be around one to five working days.

The pending period showed it was over, however the amount was not available for withdrawal from this client from that specific week.  When I go to Transaction History, I can see the amount and it is no longer pending but it never gave me the option for withdrawal. Please let me know what could have been the issue here? 

I am also wondering about this same issue.

Hi Arjay,

 

Thanks for your help. The issue is that I was not able to "Get Paid" for that specific transaction. It did not show any indication for withdrawal therefore I had no option to click withdrawal for that amount. It just shows on transaction history that it is no longer pending, however it was never an option for withdrawal, if that make sense.

 

I have been able to make other withdrawals for payments scheduled after that date, so I am not understanding why that exact amount has been skipped over.

Hi. I need help with my transfer earlier to my local bank. I contacted my local bank and they said my account has been closed that's why the money didn't reflect on my account and it will credit back to my upwork account. Can you help me about this? This is my first time though and I'm so worried right now.

Hi Marle,

 

Thank you for reaching out. Once a withdrawal is initiated it cannot be canceled whether it is manual or automatic. The funds will be sent to the payment method on file. If there are any issues with the bank account, the funds will be returned to Upwork and once this has happened, rest assured that we will immediately credit the funds to your account.

Hi,

Dear Upwork Community,

I had set a payment method on Upwork with the correct bank account number and in fact, I have succesfully made a withdrawal back in July and everything went smoothly. However, I made a transaction recently on Nov 4th but still have not received any payment and it is now already Nov 17th. 

 

Please guide me. I have called my bank and they said there were no floating transactions on my account.

What is this hassle you are imposing us now ?

 

We need to pay for electricity, internet connection, to continue working on your platform.

 

We have to struggle to find work, and then struggle again to receive payment?

 

I am in the same situation since Nov 07

 

The support only sends messages to calm us down instead of solving the problem.

It takes 3-5 business days. Starting from the 15th, that's still 4 business days max. In some cases even 7 business days, depending on the bank and country.

Hello Upwork support team.

I have not received my money after your famous 08 days.

I have requested payment since 07 Nov. Today is 21 Nov.

The bank does not recognize any authenticity of this document you sent  . It does not reflect the swift in any way. No origin of money transfer from X bank, from any country to UBA Bénin. This document does not prove that you have paid me according to my bank.

 

 Pay me my money, Please.

Hello Upwork
I’ve withdrawn my available balance on Wednesday (16th November) and I was expected it will be available in my local bank by next couple of days. Unfortunately, It’s been 9 days and no result yet. I’ve contacted my bank even and they said no balance and i even didn’t receive the confirmation email (with exchange rate and other stuffs) .

This is the history of my first withdrawal and the last on 20th November and the same history for this withdrawal as well.
