Want to Close Business Bank Account

Hi All
I have a business bank account with hsbc that I would like to close in the near future, I was wondering if there's anything I need to watch out for or charges that they may put my way. I don't want to talk to them yet in case they 'persuade' me to do something else, so I just want to be ready. I can't find anything online (yet) and I couldn't find a business related post on this site, so hopefully I'm in the right place.
I'm part self employed/part employed and might be going full time (with current employer), and will cease being self employed.
I will obviously wait until I've informed the tax office and paid any tax due before I do anything with the account.
Ideally I'd like to transfer it to my current account with them - which means they still get to keep my money...which I'm hoping would make things easier?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!:)

Just write a letter to them.
If there are any charges to pay they should form part of your account package - no nasty surprises.
There should be no problem at all moving any surplus from your business to private banking account.0
