Name change query?

Was wondering if anyone knows how long it takes for PayPal to allow a Name change? 

 I’ve submitted the supporting documents backing up my name change & now I’m left waiting. 

Ive been using PayPal to pay for goods online with no problem using bank account in new name, now, Ive got funds in my account I cannot seem to withdraw them?   I’ve read somewhere on here this because my now name & bank account name doesn’t match my PayPal account name. 

 

Can anyone help?
