* Login to your account.
* Click on the "gear" icon next to Logout.
* You should see a link at the bottom left.
* "Close your Account" - click

Notes:
As per the FAQs:   If you close your PayPal account, it can’t be reopened.   Any scheduled or incomplete transactions are canceled. You can’t close your account if there are limitations, unresolved issues, or a balance.   Also, if you have an email address on your account that you haven’t confirmed, remove it from your account before you close it.

Charges have been posted to my account without my authorization on 3 different days.  I emailed the resolution center each time and I haven’t received a response. Disappointed. I am canceling my account as I do not feel my information is secure.
