If you have an account with any bank that you wish to use no more. Then you have an option to close it down. In this guide, I will tell you how you can close Apollo Bank account.
I am going to explain to you a very simple process. But this will not be an online process but instead of that, it is an offline process.
In this process, you will have to personally visit the nearest branch of the bank personally. And fill the account closure request form.
But before you go to the branch of the bank. There are two things that you need to take care of. The first thing is you have to check your account balance.
Here you have to make sure that there are no pending dues or negative balances in your account. If you have any then you will have to clear those.
The second thing is you need to take care of all your automatic payments and direct deposits. You can move them all to your alternative bank account.
This will help you make sure that all your payments and deposits are running without any issues. If you don’t take care of them. Then all your payments and deposits will start failing once the account is closed.
