Bank accounts are a critical part of our day-to-day life. We use our accounts for keeping our money and making transactions with the same. But sometimes we make our mind to close our existing account and open a new one with another bank. It is not legal in most countries to have multiple bank accounts. But it is not recommended to keep multiple unused accounts active. In this guide, I will tell you the steps to close Nepal Bangladesh Bank account.
It is very easy to close the account. First, you have to make sure that you don’t have any dues or negative balance in the account. If you have any then take proper steps to clear the dues. You have to deposit an equal amount of money to the total dues in your account to make the balance zero. Keep in mind that no bank allows its customer to close the account without clearing the dues.
Before you close your account make sure you have an alternative bank account. In case you don’t then choose a good bank for you. And open a new account with that bank. If you are confused about which bank to choose for your next account. Then I have a list of questions you should ask your new bank. If you are satisfied with the answers then you can open the account. If not then you can think about a different bank.
