Hi.
I've had my account for a few years now and really love the convenience it provides.
Unfortunately I'm on a government program that has requested that I close my PayPal Account and provide proof that I have done so.
1. Is there any way I can close the account and then somehow provide proof that I've done so?
2. Is there any way to re-open a closed PayPal account?
Thank you to any who take the time to assist me in this matter.
Sincerely,
brinneysmom

You need to go through the process of closing it first; you may not even be able to close it. In the meantime phone PayPal support for help.

I would imagine PayPal emailing you a confirmation that you have successfully closed your account. IF you closed your account, it can't be re-opened. You also can’t close your account if there are limitations, unresolved issues, or a balance. And if you have an email address on your account that you haven’t confirmed, remove it from your account before you close it.
Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
