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 help / contact bottom left of Paypal pages for options available for your country.

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.
OR
You could just close your business account (removing all subscriptions / financial info etc first) and open a personal one.

Hi there I’m needing help with changing what my PayPal account is listed as, currently it is listed as being a business when I am only wanting my PayPal account to use for personal use I.e online shopping or transferring funds to friends. Is anybody able to advise me how to change what my account is listed as in the settings? Thank you
