How do I change the name of the Bank Account Name? I went from a Business Acct. to a Personal Acct., was able to change that name in the Profile settings, however, when I withdraw the balance in PayPal, and want the money into my bank account, the business name shows up. I can't locate a way to change that.

Hello cas124!
Here is how to update the bank name for the account listed in PayPal:
- Log in to your PayPal account.
- Click "Profile" near the top of the page.
- Click "My money."
- Click "Update" beside "Bank accounts."
- Click "Edit name," and then type the new name and click "Save."
Hope this helps!

i have tried this and it is no use as there is no edit name in the area described. you need to remove account and add a new one. i believe its the only way
