I did a search and nothing relevant came out. Looking to avoid fees for normal money transfers with friends, I have been trying for days to figure out how to switch from Paypal premium status to personal status. I think I've read in passing in the Finance forum about paypal allowing you to link accounts? Not sure about that one. Any advice will be much appreciated and cookies points will be awarded.
I guess if I can't figure it out, I'll just start another Paypal account but I rather keep using my current one since it's linked with eBay.

The create new account part is easy but how about the linking part? I tried searching on paypal help but I can't get any answers.
When you do have personal and premium both linked and received a payment, do you get prompt to choose which account the money goes to?

Sign into your paypal account and look for "Contact US" at the bottom of the page. Then search for "downgrade". Follow the instruction then.

Note: You can only downgrade 1 time for that particular account you have. Meaning, if later on you decided to upgrade, then you cannot request downgrade for the second time.

I have two different accounts, one personal and one business. each has it's own email and funding sources.

I just set up a personal account in addition to my premier account using the same funding source. Looks like that's what paypal means by you are allowed to have 1 personal, 1 premier. Only 1 can be linked on Paypal though.
