Frequently Asked Questions
What notice period applies to current accounts?
Current accounts can be cancelled at any time without a notice period. The cancellation takes effect once all pending transactions have been processed and the remaining balance has been paid out. A negative balance must be cleared before closure.
How does the statutory account switching service work?
Since 2016, banks are obliged to assist customers with account switching free of charge. The new bank transfers standing orders on request, informs payment partners about the new IBAN and lists all account movements from the last 13 months.
What do I need to consider before cancelling?
First open a new current account. Transfer all standing orders, direct debit mandates and regular card payments (e.g. Netflix, Spotify) in good time. Keep the old account running in parallel for another 2-3 months to catch any late transactions.
