    Log into your Paypal account and then click on 'Contact Us' at the bottom of the page and select to send Paypal an email. In the web form just indicate your discussion to downgrade to a premier account.

    Then just wait a few days and Paypal will contact you to ask for a confirmation, once they get the confirmation your account would be downgraded.

    Or just call them through their contact phone number and request them to downgrade your paypal account from business to premier one.

    DON.

    The next alternative apart from waiting is to call them.

    Hi, out of curiosity - what are the main reasons for downgrading yourself?

    I'm wondering the same thing as 24hrs... Are the fees better with premier than business? I actually don't use my account for business reasons so I'm not sure how I got switched from a personal to a premier account... Thanks.

    Did you receive money at your personal account ? If so, I guess they sense that you are using the account for business purposes and updated the account.

    I've actually downgraded from a business account to a premier account a while ago after I stopped using my paypal account for business. I kept it as a premier account as it allows me to receive money in case I need to do so. Well, that came in handy when I sold one of my site last week. If I had a personal account, I would have been stuck as I do not know how to sell anything.

    Just forget about it for now... Their system is not working... I have been trying to get them to downgrade my account to premiere since December each time after 2 weeks the reply saying it not possible at the moment please request some other time.

    3rd April 2008
    If you haven't heard back from them for over a week you will getting this sort email saying you query got old and got rejected


    They are saying this to me since December 2007, I am starting to get the feeling this issue with downgrade will never get fixed. :(

    It's with the new Paypal policy. Once your account receives greater than or equal to 500$ (or was that a thousand, I forgot), your personal account automatically upgrades to premier.

    There is no Indian paypal number,u can call to number listed on their website,call around 12-1 AM IST, may take 5-10 minutes to get connected but once u r connected with any of their representative,ur account will be downgraded.

    It is $500, I believe.

    Anyway, why does PayPal prohibits exchanges? If I wanted to cash out and somebody is offering a nice rate, it is prohibited? :confused:

    What kind of exchanges do you mean? E-currency to e-currency?
