Ok, bare with me. I've been waiting for my stimulus since the IRS website showed it was deposited on April 13!! As Missy of us, we went ahead and signed up for direct deposit for quicker stimulus checks. I was confused on the Wells Fargo involvement too. Go to paypal prepaid, sign up for direct deposit, it's not the same sign up as what we did through our PayPal account, pick a card and wait for it to come in the mail. This new card is associated with your PayPal BUT it is a prepaid card for government issued payment. When it comes in the mail download the PayPal prepaid app, login and activate the new card. That's as far as I've gotten, I'm waiting on the card but my clairvoyance (😂) tells me doing this will release the money from the random Wells Fargo that doesn't even know we exist, deposit into the new card and we've been set free! Why they couldn't just add it to the PayPal we already use is beyond me. But way to make **bleep** difficult! And it's a good idea to update the AI in messages about this because they have no clue what I'm talking about, all I got was an unwanted automated message telling me to contact the IRS! Very professional PayPal. I hope this is our solution. I'm pulling my hair out dealing with these uninformed computers.
