After you've set up your new accounts with Ameris Bank, leave your old account active long enough to allow outstanding checks or automatic withdrawals to clear. This process may take several weeks.
Once you're sure your old account is inactive, ask your previous financial institution to close it and send you the balance(s). After that, you can destroy your old checks, cards and deposit slips.
