As long as you are the account holder and it's not in joint names, you should just be able to go into the branch office, prove your identity with passport/residenica and they will close it.

Or as I found out quite accidently back in 1996, have a zero balance for about six months and it will close by itself. There is a caveat on that though, if you ever need to open a new account with the same bank (or maybe others if they share credit history details) you may have to pay some charges.

I closed one of my accounts by e mail , the other one i just made an appt in the bank and we had to sign a couple of forms return the cards etc and it was done there and then , however make sure that you withdraw any money beforehand because they willl charge you to transfer or have a cheque made out.

Golden Rule - get an acknowledgement from the bank in writing that the account has been closed and ALL charges have been paid.
