Activity: 0% Longevity: 8% | | US bank accounts that work with mis matched names?
I'm having difficulty finding banks that will work with mis matched name deposits. I used to use fifth third and they worked fine until this year. I have tried us bank, river valley cu (a local cu), boa, keybank, cinfed, myusa, sofi, huntington. That's all I can think of atm.
None of these banks are working for me. I have tried with a brand new account with each one of them. I have tried opening online accounts but I always hit a brick wall because of a requirement that I live/work/worship in the town that the bank is in. And when I search for banks I literally search for banks in Ohio but never find any.
I am also unable to use this site's search function as I get caught in a verification loop.
I'm 99% sure I'm not having any problems with account creation methods as none of the accounts I have created had any problems until I tried to add a bank account.

There is too much fraud these days,USPS workers are stealing checks,checks can also be easily washed,go to Youtube to learn how.
Banks do not accept endorsed checks presented at physical branches,so why should they accept them online?
Have you tried BAC,CHASE,WFC,CFG,EVER Bank,East West Bank,HSBC,there are tons of banks out there. https://www.crediful.com/banks-that-...urity-numbers/

Paypal may still offer a debit card which you can use to transfer fund back and forth from your Paypal account to the card and vice versa,there is a monthly fee and you must have SSN and physical residential address.
Go to Paypal and check it out

your best bet is to use business accounts with properly registered LLC names or payment services designed for mismatched deposits, like payoneer.you can also try local credit unions or fintech Apps, but make sure review their policies carefully!

Commericial bank accounts are expensive,bank could ask for minimum balance say $1000,and a monthly processing fee .
But you will get better service

I used to be able to do one every few days but after I got a 4th one I started getting blocked. Haven't made one in 2 years now.
Also, I wonder how a business account (or llc) would affect SSDI?

Many US banks are strict about name matching. You might consider smaller credit unions or online banks that accept flexible account names but always check their policies first.

Did I hear Barclays allows easy opening of multiple business accounts online with different LLC names?
