If you have decided to close your bank account. 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 CommerceOne Bank account.
Every bank will be having a few terms and conditions that the customers have to agree to while closing the account. But there is no need to worry as these are very basic things.
The first thing is about the balance you have in your account. There should be no negative balance or pending dues in your account.
If you have any then you will have to clear those. And the next thing is about the payments that are running on your bank account.
Once your account is closed all your payments will start failing. And it is completely your responsibility to take care of these and not that of the bank.
So the best thing you can do is move all your automatic payments and direct deposits to your alternative bank account. This will help you ensure that all the payments are running without any issues.
If you already have an alternative account with you. Then that is fine. But in case if you don’t have then I highly recommend you to open one before you close your existing account.
There are so many banks in the United States of America to choose from. So if you need help in choosing your next bank. Then you can refer to this list of questions to ask the bank before opening an account with it.
I usually don’t recommend my readers close the account online. That is because of the high rejection rate. Instead of that, you can follow the offline method that I have explained below.
