  2. In order to meet the “monthly salary input of €1000” can I setup some personal monthly SEPA transfers from my bank account (in Spain) to the Postbank account?

    (I’m doing this between 2 banks in Spain at the moment).

  3. I have had an account since 2002 but now Postbank take money out of my account every month. I do not live in Germany and so I cannot put 1000 euros in every month. I find it most upsetting that this money, left to me by my German grandfather, is being reduced by Postbank who make enough profits without taking money from my little account. I want to know how I can close the account and remove the remaining money before it all goes. I need to do this in UK – please reply with details of how I can take out my money, very reluctantly, from Germany.

  6. Hello, I recently received a letter re Nachweis zum Steurstatus and two of the same forms: Erklarung zum Steuerstatus. I lived for a few years in Germany apx 30 years ago. I’ve also not visited there or Europe for 10+ years. I in the US, my native land and was not aware I still had a postbank account which, if existing, I would like closed and any money therein relinquished or donated as the Postbank chooses. Please advise how this can be done. Please know the Postbank letters with the Erklarung form, dated July, I did not receive until recently as I was not in my home much of 2021 due to medical matters. I called the consulate in NYC who suggested I write my wish to close the account. Thank you, and I look forward to your reply. I apologize I write this in English.
