Can't Stop Withdrawals from Paypal to my bank account

I recently working for a company that uses paypal to pay me every week. I initiate the transfer to my palpal account every Friday and I am payed flawlessly. 

 

However, without any further action, about an hour after the money hits my paypal account it automatically transfers to my bank account without me doing it.

 

I have a paypal debit card now and would like to leave funds there so that I don't have to wait 3 days for the bank transfer to complete but paypal automatically dumps the money every week.

 

I have emailed support but no reply.

 

How do I stop these transfers?

The automatic transfers to your bank account are being done by the PayPal "auto sweep" option. If you initiate a PayPal "add funds" transfer from your bank account to your PayPal account, I believe PayPal will disable your "auto sweep" option.

If the "add funds" transaction doesn't disable the sweep, you will need to call PayPal and ask them to manually disable it.
