If you’re thinking of closing your Bank of America savings account, here are a few things to keep in mind. First, make sure you have enough money saved up to cover the balance on your account – typically, the minimum balance required to keep an account open is $1,000. If you don’t have that much money saved up, consider transferring some of your funds over to another bank or investing in a savings account with better interest rates. Next, be sure to submit a request for closure online at bankofamerica.com/accounts/request-closure or by calling 1-800-BANK-OF-AMERICA (1-800-226-5322). You’ll need your account number and the last four digits of your social security number. Finally, make sure you get all the paperwork in order before closing your Bank of America savings account. This includes copies of all your bank statements going back six months and proof of residency such as a driver’s license or utility bill. ..
