Hey, I was messing around and accidentally changed my account to a business account. I want to change it back to personal and I already searched how to but they removed the option to contact them about that (?). I would like to know how can I contact PayPal support so they can change it back.

You can contact us via Facebook or Twitter?  It's https://www.facebook.com/PayPal and @AskPayPal for Twitter. Once we receive your contact we will be able to review your account and downgrade it for you.

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.

Click on the words "Help / Contact" at the bottom of paypals pages and use the phone option in the blue band at the top OR very bottom of page dependent on what country you are in. Scroll down past the list of help questions and click on 'Call us' bottom of that page. Log in and get the code.
OR
have you considered contacting Customer Service via Facebook or Twitter?
You can send them a personal message from their facebook or twitter pages.
It's: https://www.facebook.com/PayPal and @AskPayPal for Twitter.

You can click on help / contact bottom left of every Paypal page for contact options for your country.
