My taxes were accepted with an upcoming date for IRS to withhold taxes that I owe.

As long as the routing number and the account number is correct, the bank name is not really relevant.

If you have already filed your return and it has been accepted by the IRS for processing, you won’t be able to change it. You need to contact the IRS to try to expedite this process. They will put a hold on the direct deposit and issue a paper check instead.
