I'm trying to link my bank to paypal so that i can add a new debit card.

My bank is chase and when i put chase or chase bank under where it asks for 'Bank Name', it says 

"The bank name you have entered is invalid or missing. Please try again."

I've entered everything else correctly

I was having the same issue, but was able to get it to work by typing JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, NA as the bank name. It's strange that the , NA was the missing piece.

My bank is Citizens.  PayPal doesn't seem to like it either.  Is there another name I should be using? 

Thanks in advance.

The only one that worked for me was JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, NA    I copied and pasted it from another person's response.  What a joke and waste of ten minutes of my life.  New to paypal.  This is lame, folks.
