@JADA3 Using someone else's bank account is a bad idea. The bank will reject a deposit for someone whose name is not on the account. They send it back to the IRS and then the IRS has to issue and mail a paper check to you---which delays your refund for weeks. Or....if you chose to have your fees deducted from your federal refund, the deposit went back to the third party bank. That bank has to issue a check to you. And they will add another fee for doing so.
Your tax refund was not sent to TurboTax. TurboTax does not handle your refund at all.
Santa Barbara Tax Products Group, LLC (SBTPG) is the bank that handles the Refund Processing Service when you choose to have your TurboTax fees deducted from your refund. This option also has an additional charge from the bank that processes the transaction.
You can contact them SBTPG, toll-free, at 1-877-908-7228 or go to their secure website www.sbtpg.com
