Stay Scam Alert: We will never ask you for your online banking password, card PIN, or SMS verification codes. If you ever have any concerns about an incoming call or text message you have received from someone claiming to be from Auswide Bank, contact us directly. Your security is our top priority.
The easiest way to close your account is to send us a secure message in internet banking with details of the account(s) you would like to close. Alternatively, you can call our friendly Customer Care Team on 1300 138 831 or visit your local branch.
To ensure a seamless account closure process:
- Ensure your account balance is $0.00, and there are no pending transactions.
- Cancel any recurring payments and direct debits set up on the account.
- Make sure all direct debits, credits, cheques, and Visa authorisation transactions have cleared.
Before you close your account, you might want to compare it to our other products that could better suit your needs:
Please note that once you’ve closed your account, it can’t be reopened. You’ll receive a final statement confirming the closure of your account. Don’t forget to destroy any linked Visa Debit cards by cutting through the chip, magnetic strip, and security code on the back.
