Hi Everyone,
I would like to downgrade my account from business to personal account. My account used to be personal account but I upgraded by mistake. I tried calling the customer service but it is down due to COVID-19 and the downgrade option is not showing up on the "Email Us" section. Can anyone please help me? I would very much appreciate it.
Also I'm from Canada.

Hi @Anonymous_User,
Thank you for reaching out to PayPal. I'm sorry to know that you are experiencing this kind of situation provided the circumstances brought about by the pandemic, it is quite challenging to get a hold of a representative. However, we still have another option for you to try.
Please click on the help & contact link at the bottom of any PayPal page and select the chat option si we would be able to make the necessary changes to your account.
Hope this helps.

There is no automatic way to downgrade a business account to a personal account, you have to contact customer services and they will do that for you.
You can click on help / contact bottom left of every Paypal page for contact options for your country.
OR
You could just close your business account (removing all subscriptions / financial info etc first) and open a personal one.
Advice is voluntary.
Kudos / Solution appreciated.
