    Remove the bank account from your paypal account, and then you can close the account. You can technically go ahead and close it but it can cause problems in paypal if they try to access it and it is closed.

    Yes, you can do that. Paypal does not check your bank account status all the time and they are mindful that nothing last forever. Just do not withdraw anything until you add the new bank account.

    It is okay to leave the closed bank account and remove it after you add the new one.

    I canceled the Credit Card that was linked to my Paypal account.

    Any problems with that?

    Just add the new credit card before you remove the old one and you be fine. This will allow you to make purchases through paypal.

    I had problems removing my old one as I didn't have it and they ask for the last 4 digit of your card number to verify you want to remove it. I just got in contact with them in my case though.

    You can delete your bank account from paypal. If you had any paypal subscriptions setup that use the bank account as a backup source, they will be canceled, same when deleting a credit card ;)

    You should consider a free prepaid direct deposit account like account now or netspend. You can add your PayPal account via the direct deposit and routing number (avaliable instantly in the U.S.). Won't show up on your credit report and provides easy access to you paypal funds by credit card. You can also get paid by direct deposit. The direct deposit number is avaliable instantly as I remember and I was sent a card in 4 days!
