There is no a specific Paypal customer service email address available. Alternatively you can contact them via Paypal Facebook page. You will get an automated response the second you write to them, however a customer service representative will answer you question within a day.

If your account is a Paypal Australia account, you can try: service@paypal.com.au.

You can give it a try and let me know so I can update this part of this article.
