If I close a checking acct at one bank and open a new one at another can they still do echeck withdrawals ?

Question

I am not trying to avoid paying my bills ,but trying to avoid those companies who trick you by saying something is free so you give them your debit card # like an idiot :0, an old idiot :) and I want them off my back. I have tried proper channels to close it off and of course, no response,i know when you sign up you are signing a contract and changing debit card 3's doesnt help but can they track you from bank to bank? Banker answers only

Answer 1

When you transfer your bank account from one bank to another, any echeck withdrawals or pre-authorized withdrawals/debits will NOT start coming from the new account. Anything you signed for the auto-withdrawals are for the account you were using at the time.

Answer 2

I'm not a banker, but no, they cannot track you from bank to bank.

Answer 3

they can not track you.just close the account and open another at the same bank,i had the same problem.
