I find the recent onslaught of changes in policy to be insulting to myself, and your admittance of how you are undeserving of my business. I'm sad it has come to this. I require this account to be closed.

I further require the removal all of data related to myself from all records and systems where permitted by law.

Regards,

Brian G.

I wrote a very nearly identical letter. After closing my account, they continued to send mr marketing spam with a broken unsub link. I had to write another letter requesting to not receive their spam.

That is a $500 CAN-SPAM violation, payable to you, exercisable in real court.

A broken unsubscribe link? Why, that must be an honest mistake by the good folks at PayPal. </sarcasm>

Where did you write this to? I'd like to close my account as well.

If you go into your account options you can close the account in a few short steps.
