Steps to Close Cross River Bank Account
There is no online method that you can follow to close your account. So you will have to follow the offline method only. I have mentioned all the steps of the offline method below. This guide is written for the people who hold an individual account with the bank. In case if you hold a joint bank account then refer to this guide.
- Open a new bank account for yourself in another bank. (alternative bank account)
- Check your bank account balance for any pending dues or negative balances. (clear if any)
- Bring down your bank account balance to zero.
- Locate the nearest branch of Cross River Bank and visit the branch.
- Go to the helpdesk of the branch and speak with the bank officials.
- Tell the bank officials that you want to close your bank account.
- The officials will ask for your name, bank account number, and the reason for the closure.
- Provide the requested details to help them locate your account.
- Collect, fill, sign, and submit the account closure request form to the bank officials.
Note: If you already have an account with another bank then there is no need to open a new one. But if you don’t have one then it is recommended to open a new one before you close down your existing account. If you need help in choosing your next bank then read my list of questions you should ask your new bank before opening the account.
