Hi, I have looked for a template letter requesting for my account to be closed. I have searched on google and on here but I can not find one. Please can somebody help me find a sample or template letter that writes to the branch manager requesting an account to be closed down.

Why close it? Why not just leave a pound in there? It will cost the banks.

 

Just keep an eye on the account as they might put some sneaky charges in.

 

However, if you do want to close it then I think you have to give them notice and make sure all your DD's and SO's are sorted out.

Abbey (Charges on 3 accounts and default on my credit record) - DPA letter sent 30/03/06 - 40 days limit is 9th May - Recieved DPA printouts 05/04/06 with microfiche "fob off" letter. <p>Barclaycard (Charges on 1 account and default on my credit record) - DPA letter sent 03/04/06 - 40 days limit is 13th May - Recieved some statements 08/04/06 along with DPA printout and a microfiche "fob off" letter. Claim for £340 sent 11/04/06

My request for closure has nothing to do with claiming bank charges. I have been treated very well by the bank in question - I would just like to close the account. I am not interested in keeping it open - please can you help me write a letter requesting the account to be closed.

Dear Sir/Madam

 

Re: Closure of Account Number *******

 

I am writing to you to request the closure of the above account with immediate effect (or whatever date).

 

I await your response

 

Yours sincerely

 

Mr/s Complete Novice

 

Then wait for the phone call/letter asking you why and can they do anything to persuade you to stay. Btw the templete letters are only relating to Bank Charges.
