Changing email address in Paypal settings on iphone

Hello owl5126,

Welcome to Apple Support Communities!

If we understand your post correctly, you're unable to remove your PayPal account from your Apple ID. We'd like to help!

Let's follow the steps below for help removing PayPal as a payment method.

How to change your payment method on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch

Open the Settings app.

Tap your name.

Tap Payment & Shipping. You may be asked to sign in with your Apple ID.

From here, you can do these things:

Add a payment method — Tap Add Payment Method.

Update a payment method — Tap the payment method, then edit your information. You may need to enter the security code that's printed on your credit or debit card. If you use the card with Apple Pay, go to the Wallet app to edit the card information.

Remove a payment method — Tap Edit, tap the red Delete button, then tap Remove. If you have an unpaid balance, have subscriptions, including an iCloud storage plan, or use purchase sharing, you can't remove all payment methods. Find out how to remove all payment methods.

Change the order of your payment methods — Tap Edit, then drag the move order icon .

More information about changing or deleting a payment method can be found here: Change, add or remove Apple ID payment methods

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Take care!
