The beneficiary name is mismatched

[c3ca1bf0]

Hello, today, I am trying to add paypal as an additional payment method.

My full name on paypal account is Cong Dinh, which is the same on upwork account.

But upwork says:

Payment method verification in progress

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

But I noticed that the verified name on contracts and invoices is Ding Cong. Is this the reason?

If so, this should not be a big deal!

Can you help me add paypal quickly?

Best regards.

Hi Cong,

Thank you for your message. I checked your account and can confirm that your payment method is already accepted. Your new payment method will be active after 3 days for security purposes.

Hello!

My upwork username is the same as my paypal username and the email is the same. But the upwork page says that my username doesn't match and later shows that my paypal payment method is not active. How can I fix this please?

Best regards.

Hello, I have an issue, before now I added my local bank account, it showed active after some day. Then after some days when I did my identity verification and earned my first money it began showing that the beneficiary name is not same as my Upwork account. This is not true. My name is Ngwuta Sunday Shedrach. That is my legal name. In all my dealings. Business, school everywhere. Even in my identity card. That is what is there. The same identification card I used to verify Upwork is the same i used to register bank account though the latter came first. I don't see why Upwork would keep doing this. Please review my account and correct this. My swift code, bank code and all the details have been confirmed to be how it is on my bank.

Please I need your reply 

[ArjayM]

Hi Ngwuta, 

I took a closer look at your account and confirmed that the name mismatch has been cleared. You can expect your new payment method to be active and ready for use in three days.

Hi Han,

Thank you for reaching out to us. I checked and It looks like you need to update your tax information to be able to withdraw earnings. For more details feel free to check this page.

After Upwork corrects my verified name, it still says, "The beneficiary name is mismatched".

My Verified name on Upwork: (Saif Hassan Abdelnaby Ahmed Abdelnaby)

Paypal: Saif Hassan (first name: Saif) (Last name: Hassan).
If this is correct can you please activate my payment method?
If no please tell me how to write to match if I should change things with the Paypal name.
Thanks

I recently made changes to my agency and had to verify myself again as a freelancer (this is all complete). 

Issue:

• When trying to set up either Freelancer or Business ACH bank, it shows mismatch benificiary.

Details:

• All of my bank accounts either are my (first name / last name) or (Middle name / last name) 
• none of my accounts are first middle last.
• I have always went by my middle name Austin Kimbell. (This has resulted in mismatch name for beneficiary I believe since my ID has first middle last. 
  
  

I need assistance in getting bank account issues resolved for future payouts. Can someone provide me with clear direction on how to fix?

Upwork team,

unfortunately, my CNiC was in urdu language and Upwork fetched Fazeh Asad Ali instead of Fizza Asad Ali now I am having problems in setting up payment method as my name on Bank Account is Fizza Asad Ali not Fazeh Asad Ali. I can provide english Passport pic as a proof but kindly resolve my issue so that i can proceed with my payments.

[ArjayM]

Hi Fizza,

I took a closer look at your account and confirmed that the payment method you're referring to has been removed. Please be aware that if you are withdrawing directly to your bank account, the beneficiary name on your bank account must match your verified name on Upwork. 

Could you please try and add your preferred payment method to your account. If your payment method was flagged for a name mismatch, you may add a new payment method that reflects your Upwork verified name, or reply to the email sent from Upwork to start the process of verifying that you are an authorized user on the payment method.

Let us know if you need further assistance afterward; we'll gladly look into that for you.

I tried to add a bank account to my payment methods, but was notified that there was a name mismatch. The problem is that my name has characters that cannot be used in the name of the account in question, so I used a variation excluding the accents. Since it's a minor variation (only two characters difference), I have waited for a few days to see if the problem would be resolved. Unfortunately, I didn't get any response. Does anyone know what can be done?

[PradeepH]

Hi João,
