So anyone from customer service can help me here?
Before you close your account…

Hey @Norbert_5454545 & @Puffybutt2,
Thank you for your post and welcome to the PayPal Community Forum!
I understand you are attempting to close your account but seeing an error message.
There are a few reasons why you may not have the ability to close your account:
1. Account Limitations
2. Positive/Negative PayPal Balance
3. Ongoing PayPal Disputes/Cases
4. Pending Payments
If none of the above applies to your PayPal account, this error could indicate you either have a linked Honey or Xoom account. Because of this, you won’t be able to close your PayPal account. Teams are working on a solution to this issue.
Otherwise, you can use the contact options provided by @kernowlass to get in touch with us directly 🙂
I hope this helps, have a lovely day!
Rebecca
