If I was to close down my PayPal account, can I choose where my balance goes. E.g. another user or does it go to PayPal?

You can’t shut down an account while it has a balance so yes, must send it to another account or even donate the money to PayPal Giving Fund before you close can close the account. Unless you just want to forfeit the funds, ask PayPal customer service to take care of it zeroing out the balance and close the account.
Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
