How do I downgrade my business account to personal? The Assistant robot referred me to an article that says it has to be done manually by a PP person. I then asked for the account to be "downgraded" and got the Assistant robot again. I tried again and again got the robot. It seems to be an inescapable loop. How do I get past the Assistant so my request goes to someone real who can actually do what I request?

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.
Click help / contact bottom left of Paypal pages for options available for your country.
Or have you considered contacting Customer Service via Facebook or Twitter?
You can send them a personal message from their facebook or twitter pages.
It's: https://www.facebook.com/PayPal and @AskPayPal for Twitter.
OR
You could just close your business account (removing all subscriptions / financial info etc first) and open a personal one.
