## Summary

Discover has sent letters to select account holders informing them that bank prepaid accounts can no longer be linked as external accounts for transfers between banks. Consequently, on May 29, 2026, Discover will delete the listed external bank accounts and any future-dated transfers associated with them. The specific reason appears to be a policy change rather than a strict legal requirement
