    I did nowt when I was executor.
    I read though the same rubbish as per the above quotes from paypals' site and said to myself "fk that" - I've better things to do providing all that.

    Any CC or bank accounts details that might be stored in the PP account are long since closed.

    That was over 2 years ago and I've not seen any notices of imminent closure yet from Paypal in the deceased email account which I have access to.....
