Step 3 Change your automatic payments. We offer online bill pay, however if you would like to transfer your existing payments with individual companies (like utilities, mortgage, credit card, etc.), use the enclosed form to change all automatic withdrawals or automated payment services. Don’t forget about those that use your old debit card number, such as automatic payments online.

Step 4 Close your old accounts. We can help you fill in the blanks on this form and then you just sign it. This form will notify your old financial institutions about the account you are closing and gives directions for disbursement of any remaining funds in those accounts. You will need to know your old account numbers in order to close these accounts. You may want to destroy any unused checks, ATM cards and debit cards at this time.
