The bank should receive the funds and will try to post them back to the appropriate account.  If they cannot complete the process, the funds are usually sent back to PayPal.   PayPal will then post them into your PayPal balance.  The bad news is, the process can take up to 30 days before PayPal gets the funds back.   PayPal recommends you contact your bank and let them know a money was sent to the old account so they can assist you by locating the funds and/or expediting the return of funds.
