This business decision (surely it's technically possible to change url link) is forcing me to consider using only Square Cash, which allows its users to change their cash tag names, which is similar in function to paypal.me link. I can't believe in 2017 a company like PayPal doesn't consider a use case where their customers would like to have their link changed. Please reconsider this business decision and make the technical changes. It will likely improve your bottom line based on the complaints here.

Just to add another voice: I have just created a paypal.me link thinking it would be meant for one purpose and then I could change it. It might have said otherwise somewhere but it wasn't obvious to me. I now have hidden the link 2 minutes after creating it because I cannot use it. That just sucks.
Please consider this problem as it seems a lot of users have run into this.

Hi all,
Welcome to the PayPal Community. I'm afraid it is not possible to change your PayPal.me URL.

It's incredible that this feature, at this time after more than two years and a lot of people asked for it, has not yet been implemented!

Yes this is really frustrating. Having discovered the hard way that a Paypal account cannot be moved to another country and thus having had to create an entirely new / separate account having emigrated, now I can't unlink the Paypal.Me link from my old account in a country I no longer live in to make life easier either!
Both of these issues seem like pretty useful and commonly requested features which seem odd for Paypal to not have.

Hi Guys,
Thank you for contacting the PayPal Community forum and welcome deepybee as a new member!
Once you've created your PayPal.Me link, you won't be able to delete it. If you want to disable your PayPal.Me account, you can do so by logging in to your PayPal.Me account and selecting "Disable account." This will hide your PayPal.Me page and prevent other people from sending you money through it. However, your selected PayPal.Me link will remain associated with your PayPal account and will not be available for others to use.
You can always reactivate your PayPal.Me account by typing your personalized link into a browser and logging in to manage your page. Once you reactivate your PayPal.Me account, your personalized PayPal.Me link will be re-activated.

We know that already. This is about the ability to CHANGE the link.
I have my old company name in the link, and i no longer have the company, and i have gone back to a private account from a business account, but yet i am stuck with the company name in the link.. How hard could it be to implement this option?
Asking for money with a company name that doesn't exist, doesn't look honest if you ask me.
Just make it happen! 🙂

Answers of this level without getting acquainted with the reasons for the creation of the topic and specific requests from customers - are not informative or helpful, and unprofessional.
Could you give clear answer and report to paypal-community.com/t5/Sending-and-receiving-money/Change-PayPal-me-Url/m-p/1210208#M39909
Instead of copypasting obvious information - contact the support department and report the customers' request.
If you do not have the desire / time to do that - pass by.
