Stop automatic imports of PayPal charges to my bank account?

Joanne Walen

I accidentally set my Paypal account to import charges to the bank account that I use to pay my bill. I don't want that. How do I turn this automatic import off and use it only for the payment?

You haven't been very clear as to exactly what you wish to do. If you wish to sever online activity with your PayPal account, the select that account in the Sidebar, and click on Settings at the lower right.



Then, you will want to click on Troubleshooting and choose to Deactivate the account:



This will keep the account in your Quicken file, but it won't have any online activity. In other words, all your transactions will have to manually entered.

I hope this helps.

Hi.
Your question doesn't concern Quicken but Paypal. I think I can help you.
You have to go to your Paypal account. On the first line, you click on "portfolio" (or something like that - My account is in french…) This is your fourth choice starting by the left. 
Now, on the left, you should see your bank account. Click on it and you will see your informations about the account. At the Bottom, you will be able to delete your account.

If you don't want to delete your account but you want to have the Opportunity to choose how you want to pay, click on "modify" and make your choice.
I hope it helps you.

I’ll try this, but when I called PayPal, they couldn’t see those charges going to my bank, so they said the problem must be with Quicken.
