I have been using Wells Fargo for years and now i cannot link them to my Pay Pal account. I get a message saying, "Instrument is currently marked as bad." I sent a message to the "support team" nearly 10 hours ago and still no response.

Hi @chmogel
Good day! I hope all is well. Thank you for using community forum to be heard.
Here are some common issues you might encounter when linking a bank account:
- The bank account must be a U.S. bank.
- The bank account can’t be linked to more than one account at a time.
- The bank account can't be linked if it has already been linked to 3 previous PayPal accounts.
- The name on the bank account must match the name on the PayPal account.
We can confirm accounts from most banks and credit unions. Unfortunately, there are some banks that are not compatible with PayPal, including most online only or prepaid bank accounts.
Keep safe!
Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
Stay Blessed!
