Hello. I wanted to open a pay pal account. Ok I opened it . My page was in english and I started naturally. But I am in Uruguay and I chose by mistake a state in the USA. The account was opened but...I am stucked. That means that Im locked because it is asking me information about USA and I cant find the way to change the address so that I can be relocated and I can fill the information concerning my country or the option to close this account. I'm stuck at a page that ask me a social number.... HELP I would like to close this one and to start another using the same email.

Try clicking on close account on the profile page and if that does not work you would need to contact customer services to see if they will do it for you.
