Take action to avoid account closure

If you would like your account to remain active, simply deposit money to your account to maintain a positive balance.

If the total balance of your account continues to remain zero or negative after 60 days from our communication, the Bank will close your account, including any linked debit card(s) and cheque book(s), without any further notice.

Please be aware of any outstanding cheques that would be affected by the closure. Please make other arrangements for any recurring payments, as all standing orders will be canceled prior to the account being closed.

Look through this website for details on the benefits of your account, as well as information on other great products and services we offer.
