Because you are permanently closing your PayPal account, everything tied to your account will be permanently deleted. This means your transaction history will be lost.
Is it bad to leave money in PayPal?
1) Leave it as long as you like. If it sits dormant for a few years, we may legally have to send the funds to your state as abandoned property, so just don't go three years or more without logging in at all and you'll be good here. 2) Unclaimed funds are only if you do not accept or deny a payment.22 mar 2011
