Here’s how to go about transfering your account.The account holder(s) should submit a written application or form to either the new branch or the old one (home branch). A new account is then opened at the branch where the account is transferred and funds are deposited in this account. Once the account is transferred, the customer is allotted the new account number, and a new cheque book can be issued. * The customer ID usually remains unchanged but the account number may change depending on the bank branch. * Existing ECS and standing instructions will have to be revised if there is a change of account number.
