Suncorp Bank which is a subsidiary of Suncorp Group is a bank that has won the title of “Bank of the Year” by Money Magazine for 2018, 2019, 2020. If we consider these awards then this bank is one of the best banks in Australia. But things go wrong sometimes. And that is what made you think of closing the account with this bank.
This guide is for those people who hold a bank account with the Suncorp Bank and wish to close it. I have mentioned the complete steps that you need to follow to get your account closed. The procedure is very simple and clear to understand.
There are two methods by following which you can get your account closed. But you should have cleared all the dues and negative balance (if any) in your account. Because if you have anything due then you will not be allowed to close the account by the bank.
Before you close the account I highly recommend you open a new bank account with another bank. There are a lot of options for you like AMP Bank, CommBank, Bendigo Bank, National Australia Bank, ANZ Bank, and Bank of Queensland. Other than these also there are many to choose from.
After choosing the bank, open the account and on the day you are closing the account transfer all your funds from the old bank to your new account. But make sure you don’t do it in advance. If you don’t to it now then you will have to tell the bank how you want to receive your remaining funds.
