Just don't expect Paypal to ever let go of a bank account. I tried for a good bit to get them to drop an old account after it got overdrafted. I took partial blame but a transaction decided to default to that account even though my other account has been the default for quite some time. I guess I should have double checked but I asked them if they could remove it since I just get an error saying there's a pending transaction. They asked me if I knew what the pending charge was and I told them there absolutely wasn't one since I haven't used the debit card in over a year for anything. They told me they couldn't tell me what it was either but somehow knew for sure there was one there and refused to remove the account so there it stays and gave me the same steps I just used. Tried again a few weeks later in case it was the overdraft BS and then again a little while after that and it's same story everytime.
They also couldn't tell if/when my back-up option was ever going to be used. I was curious because there was a back-up for that transaction but instead they just hit the same savings account 3 times in a row. That's a lot of I don't knows coming from a company that has direct access to almost all of my money for my comfort. I'm closing everything out the moment my paypal credit is paid off. I'll close the damn account with the bank if I have to in order to cut them off.
