Closing your account does not end your financial exposure to PayPal — you can still be pursued for money owed, disputed transactions, or chargeback losses that occur after closure, potentially for an indeterminate period.
PayPal's User Agreement significantly affects your financial rights and access to funds — PayPal can place holds on your money for up to 180 days and limit or suspend your account at its discretion. You waive the right to participate in class action lawsuits and must resolve all disputes through individual binding arbitration, which is generally more costly and less accessible for small-dollar claims. You can opt out of the arbitration agreement by sending a written notice to PayPal's Legal Department at 2211 North First Street, San Jose, CA 95131 within 30 days of first accepting the User Agreement.
