I have two bank accounts lined to my payoal acocunt, an old one which has been my prmary account until now and my new one which I wanted to change to the primary one. There is no option to change it to the primary bank when I click on the bacnk info. Does anyone know what I should do, this is very frustrating as money is still coming out of my old account unless i manurally change the bank linked to each payment.
Thanks
amy

This didn't work for me. I have 2 bank accounts registered. When I acces either one in my Wallet the option do 'make primary' isn't visible.

Any fix ? Because I’m having the same problem. Probably going to stop using PayPal because of this. It’s just more and more problems with PayPal
