  • Visit a Wells Fargo branch in person.
  • If you’re outside the U.S., fill out the Account Closure or Partial Withdrawal Request form (PDF) and mail it to Wells Fargo.

I’ve had a similar experience where a bank closed my account unexpectedly, and it was quite a hassle. First, I contacted the bank directly, and they explained it was due to a compliance issue or account inactivity, though the reasons can vary. To resolve it, I asked them to send me a detailed statement of the closure and information on accessing any remaining funds. They provided me with a process to retrieve my funds and access my account history. When contacting the bank, be ready with your account details, identification, and any relevant correspondence. It’s crucial to follow up and ensure you get all the information you need to move forward smoothly.

To close a Wells Fargo account, you likely submitted a request either online, via phone, or in-person. The bank then verified your identity, processed any remaining transactions, and sent confirmation of the account closure by mail or email.
