(Primarily) This guide is for the account holders of the Bendigo Bank who are planning to close down their bank account. I will be telling you everything that you need to know to close the Bendigo Bank account. There are many banks that are operating in Australia and the competition is high.

When there is competition the ultimate winner will be the consumer. Because when you have high competition in the market then you have to provide the best possible services. If you don’t do it then you are not going to survive the competition. And that is what is being done by all the banks in Australia. The banks are trying hard to provide the best banking services to their customers.

Research says it costs more than 3 times to get a new customer than retaining the current customer of the organization. And this is why the customers or the account holders are always the most important people for the banks. Before you close your Bendigo Bank account I recommend you open a new bank account with another bank. This will help you in a smooth transition from Bendigo Bank to your new bank.

Once you have opened the new bank account you should transfer your funds in the Bendigo Bank account to your new account. It is recommended to transfer the funds on the day you are closing your bank account. Before you can close your bank account you should clear all the dues in your account. If you have any dues to pay or negative balance in your account then you will not be allowed to close the account until you clear them.
