Help: Withdrawal declined — "Information about card/address/phone was invalid" — despite matching details

 

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to withdraw earnings from article payments, and every attempt fails with:

Payment status: Information about card/address/phone was invalid

Here's what I've already checked and confirmed matches:

  • Name: Card and MQL5 profile both show the exact same name
  • Location: MQL5 profile shows Pakistan (country only), which matches the card's issuing country
  • Phone number: Updated my profile's phone number to match the one registered with the bank for this card, verified via SMS code — still declined with the same message

The card is an HBL (Habib Bank Limited) debit card, Mastercard. It's fully verified with the bank, and I've used it successfully for deposits/purchases on MQL5 before (those go through instantly) — it's specifically withdrawals that fail with this message.

Has anyone dealt with this exact decline reason? A few things I'm trying to figure out:

  1. Could this be related to HBL's "international usage" toggle only covering outgoing payments, not incoming/refund-type transactions?
  2. Has anyone successfully withdrawn to an HBL card before, and if so, did you need to do anything specific on the bank's side first?
  3. Is there a way to see exactly which of the three (card/address/phone) is actually the mismatch, rather than the generic combined message?

Any help or shared experience would be genuinely appreciated. Thanks in advance.
