To close your Santander bank account, you can do the following:
- Log into your online banking and go to the 'Close account' section.
- Download and print the account closure form from the Santander website. Complete the form with your details and sign it.
- Send the completed form along with your account debit card (cut in half) to your local Santander branch.
- Once Santander has processed your closure request, any remaining funds in your account will be transferred to your nominated bank account. This can take up to 15 business days.
You can also visit your local Santander branch in person to request account closure. The staff will help you complete the necessary paperwork. Be sure to let any direct debits or standing orders know about the account closure as well.
That's the basic process for closing a Santander bank account. Let the bank know as soon as possible if you want to close your account.
