Hello, Customer service has given me a US number to call, but it is not working. I am trying to call from my UK phone number. Faroe Islands is in Europe. What a disaster, I just want to close my account. I have clicked on close my account, but it is telling me to contact customer support for that.  They have given me the US number https://www.paypal.com/selfhelp/contact/call  to call for Faroe Islands support but no country or area code? The call wont go through. Called customer service again three times and the call keeps disconnecting. ... View more

I am at my wits end! I live in the UK customer service only has a US number? I dont have money to waste to call them. For some reason when I send money it keeps defaulting to Buy Goods & Services. I do not have the option to switch to Friends & Family transfers without the high fee. Nowhere to be found on the account to change this. It is completed locked on my app on Goods & Services. No way to change it. There is no email to customer service either. What do I do? I am shocked that in 2022 such a big company has no customer support for such a simple query. ... View more
