Does anyone have a solution to removing all contact from PayPal? It appears they were imported from my new iPhone. PayPal, can you please add that function back to your system? Else we just have to delete our account?

Hi @swej2006,
Welcome to the community and thank you for your post!
I do understand your frustration with this. In order for the PayPal app to have access to your contacts, you would need to allow this from your phone manually.
If you did not get a pop up stating 'Do you allow your contacts to be shared', it could mean you have a setting on your phone to automatically allow this.
I would suggest you delete your PayPal app. Once you have done this, go to your privacy settings to now allow your contacts to be shared. Then you can download the app again, and the contacts should not show.
I hope this helps!
