Are you looking to delete the Dave app and close your account? Whether you've found a new financial tool or simply no longer need Dave's services, it's important to properly close your account to prevent any future charges or issues. This guide will walk you through the steps to securely close your Dave account and ensure that no more payments are deducted.
Before closing your Dave account, you must settle any outstanding balances, including any amounts borrowed through ExtraCash advances. Dave may refuse your account closure request if there is a negative balance on your account.
Transfer Any Remaining Funds
Transfer all remaining balances from your Dave account to your external bank account. Transfers may take a few business days to process. If you close your account before transferring funds, any remaining balance will be sent as a check to your address on file, which may result in delays.
Download any necessary tax documents or statements from the Dave app. After your account is closed, you will lose access to this information.
To officially close your Dave account, follow these steps:
- Open the Dave app: Launch the Dave app on your mobile device.
- Access Settings: Navigate to the settings menu, usually represented by a gear icon.
- Edit Profile: Select "Edit Profile" from the settings options.
- Close Account: Choose "Close my Dave Account."
- Confirm Closure: Confirm that you want to close all your financial accounts with Dave.
If you prefer to close your account via email, you can follow these steps:
- Compose an Email: Write an email to support@dave.com with the subject line "Please close my Dave account."
- Include Personal Information: Provide your full name, account email address, and associated telephone number.
- Request Confirmation: Ask for confirmation that your account has been closed.
- Send the Email: Send the email and wait for a response from Dave's support team.
- Deleting the Dave app from your device does not close your account. You must follow the steps above to properly close your account and prevent any future charges.
- Closing your Dave account automatically cancels your membership and stops any future subscription fees. To avoid being charged for the next month, cancel at least three business days before your next billing date.
- Linked external bank accounts and debit cards will be automatically disconnected once your account is closed.
- Your Dave Debit Card will be canceled. Remember to shred and dispose of your physical card properly to protect your personal information.
- You will receive a final monthly bank statement at the beginning of the following month after closing your account.
- Access to your account will be lost upon closure. Ensure you have downloaded all necessary documents and information beforehand.
- Keep a record of your transaction history. Save copies of your statements for your records in case of future disputes.
If you experience any difficulties during the account closure process, you can take the following steps:
- Contact Support Through the App: Open the Dave app, navigate to Settings, and select "Chat with us" to connect with a support representative.
- Email Support: Send an email detailing your issue to support@dave.com.
- Ensure Account Balance is Zero: Make sure all cash advances are repaid in full, and your account balance is zero.
- Verify Account Closure: Check for any future charges to ensure your account has been closed. If you continue to see charges after cancellation, it may be due to timing with the billing cycle, and charges should stop on the next cycle. If charges persist, retrace the cancellation steps or contact Dave support for assistance.
By following these steps, you can confidently close your Dave account and ensure that no further payments are deducted. Properly closing your account helps maintain control over your finances and provides peace of mind. Remember to allow sufficient time before your next billing cycle to avoid any unexpected charges. If you have any questions or need assistance, don't hesitate to reach out to Dave's support team for help.
