We have adopted bank accounts to be a necessary part of our life. We use our accounts for making our day-to-day transactions. But sometimes the things may not go well with our account or I can say the bank with which we have the account. In such a case, we can close the account as well. In this guide, I have explained the process to close Sterling National Bank account.
Before you close your account I recommend you make sure that you have an alternative account ready with you. That is because once the bank starts the closing process you can not use your account. So if you already have an account that is good. But in case if you don’t have then choose a good bank for you and get an account opened for yourself.
If you need help in choosing your next bank. Then read my article in which I have mentioned a few questions you should ask your new bank. Ask these questions before opening the account. Based on the answer you receive from the bank you will be able to take your decision.
The other very important thing is there should be no negative balance or dues pending in your bank account. If in case you have any then the bank will not let you close the account until you clear them. So check your balance and get the things cleared if you have any negative balance before starting the process.
