Anyone else had unrecognized account info for refund direct deposit?

Just discovered my printed copy of filing has wrong direct deposit account info for refund. The account number has too many digits. Don't think I entered it. It's the online version, so I can't go back to the entering screen, but it should've asked the account number twice. If I didn't enter that number, where is it from? Anyone else had the same problem?

Did you have the Turbo Tax fees deducted from your federal refund?  Then it goes through the 3rd party bank to take the fees out.

 

Did you import any 1099s from investments?  Some brokers change your Direct Deposit info to your brokerage account.

The refund was sent to a bank I didn't recognize because Schwab where I have an account uses an intermediary bank, JP Morgan. So the refund was in my Schwab account which has little activity and I had not checked. I had not had a refund in so long, I did not remember the default account I had set up years ago for refunds.
