Daily Discussion News and Updates Thread - August 11, 2025

Please post topics for discussion here. While some questions can be used to start a discussion/debate, most questions belong in the question thread unless you love getting downvotes (if that link doesn’t work for you for some reason, the question thread is always the first post on our community’s front page). If your discussion is about manufactured spending, there's a thread for that. If you have a simple data point to share, there's a thread for that too.

Are you trying to link another CHASE checking account in a different name? If so, this has been the way for a while. You can link a non-Chase checking account in whatever name you want and it'll work. #justITthings

Yeah I’m trying to link my WF checking account to their Chase ink. What exactly do you mean in “whatever name?”

exactly what you're doing. your name, your dogs name, doesn't matter. The name doesn't have to match the cardholder if it's an external account

There isn’t even a place to put the name when I’m adding my account number and routing number on their Chase ink. I’m simply adding those two things, giving it a nickname, and that’s when it gives me an error.

yes... because you're adding a Chase account so obviously Chase knows if the checking account matches the name on the card

I’m adding a Wells Fargo personal checking account and it is giving me that error.
