It took 10 days for my account closure confirmation and closure balance cheques to come through. I closed mine over the phone.Debt free and staying that way! :beer:0

if u go into the branch with ID and something linked to the account eg bank card or a recent bank statement if a card is not linked to the account. It takes up to 10mins to calc any pending interest owed to you and closed for you there an then.
