Template for closing an account

LouisPlatt

Hi, I wish to close a few accounts I have with HSBC. Is there a template anywhere that I can use to close down an account?

I think you can find all information you need on the website: http://www.hsbc.co.uk/1/2/
For example, for a current account see Personal banking terms and conditions (PDF, 154kb). :

12. Closing your account

12.1 If you wish to close or switch your account, at any time, you or all of you (for joint accounts) must tell us in writing or via our Internet Banking Service or, in the Channel Islands, by going into your local branch. We will not close your account until you have returned all cards we have issued to you on the account, having cut them into at least six pieces, and any unused cheques.
