Accidentally created business account now money is locked, cannot contact support anymore

[DedaDev]

I accidentally created a Business account, I thought it had nothing to do with having a registered business leggaly.

I've tried many times to convert it back to personal, but I got a negative response from support every time.

My money is now locked there since they are asking for proof of having a real business and I don't have that, and registering a business would cost me more than the money I hold at PayPal. I have created another account, but It's not allowing me to transfer money from my business to my personal account.

Is there anything I can do to save that money from a Business account?

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.

But they state here that I should close my account first, then open personal with the same email.

are you sure that they will do it?

All that link shows is how to ''upgrade'' your account from a personal account to a business account.

You were asking how to ''downgrade'' your account from a business account to a personal account and the only way to do that is by contacting customer services.
