How to Close Bank Independent Account?

If you have decided to close your bank account for some reason. Then you have all the rights to do it. But there is a proper way to do it. In this guide, I will tell you how you can close Bank Independent account.

The process is very easy but I don’t recommend you closing the account online because of the low success rate. Instead of that, you can follow the offline method explained in this guide.

This method explained in this guide not only works for the customers of Bank Independent. But it also works for the customers of most of the banks in the United States.

Before you approach the bank and request it to close your account. There are two things that you need to take care of regarding your account.

The first thing is you have to make sure that there is no negative balance or pending dues in the account. If you have any then you should clear those.

And the second thing is you have to move all your automatic payments and direct deposits to your alternative bank account. This is important because the payments will start failing once your account is closed.
