Best way to check to see what banking information was on your return: 

1. Log in to your account, open your return

2. Click on the file tab

3. Go through the prompts till you get to the screen about how you want to receive your refund- this is where you will see what you selected and any banking information there.

I submitted my return electronically in February.  I have not yet received my refund and I'm concerned I may have entered a wrong bank account, but can't verify.  Please help!

You can verify the banking information you provided by following the steps in the below TurboTax Help Article:

How do I review the federal refund method I chose after filing with TurboTax Online?

 

Also, the IRS is experiencing delays in the processing of returns due to a later than usual start to the tax season, a backlog of mailed returns, current tax season returns, and stimulus payments. Please see this post here by ToddL99 for further explanation of why returns are delayed.

What if that bank account is closed

@dpadron242 Banking information for direct deposit is wrong or the account is closed

 

If you entered incorrect banking information for your refund, you can change it if your return is rejected.  If it is accepted, however, it is too late to change it.  The bank will reject the refund and send it back to the IRS.  Then the IRS will issue a paper check and mail it to the address you put on your tax return.  Expect a delay of at least a couple of weeks to receive your refund.

Here is what the IRS says about entering incorrect banking information
