How do I update my bank details on my PayPal account after a name change?

If the name on your bank account has changed, you need to remove this bank account from your PayPal account and add it back to use it again.

Here’s how to remove your bank account:

  1. Go to your Wallet.
  2. Click the bank you want to remove.
  3. Click Remove bank.

Now you need to link your bank account to your PayPal account again. 

After linking your bank account, you'll need to confirm it.
