Block Standard Chartered Credit Card

Things to Keep in Mind When Closing Your Standard Chartered Credit Card

Before closing your Standard Chartered credit card, consider the following important points:

  1. Avoid Future Transactions: Do not make any payments or use the card after deciding to cancel it. The bank may not cancel the card if there’s still a balance.
  2. Clear Any Outstanding Balance: Ensure all dues are paid off, as the bank will not process the cancellation request with any outstanding payments.
  3. Use Reward Points or Air Miles: If you have accumulated rewards or miles, redeem them before closing your account, as you may lose them once the card is canceled.
