- Step 3. Close Your Old Account
- We will monitor your account to make sure all of your direct deposits and automatic payments have made the switch to your new Bank of Washington account. When you notify us that all outstanding checks have cleared your old account, we will mail the Closing Account Request Form to notify your old bank to close your previous account. We will ask them to send a check for the remaining balance of the account to us to be deposited to your new Bank of Washington account.
