Do you have to inform bank when someone dies?

When to do this? This is one of the first tasks youll need to complete. Once you have a death certificate, contact the bank or building society so they can temporarily freeze any payment in or out of the account. Joint bank accounts can continue to be used as normal.

Who notifies the bank when someone dies?

The executor named in the will can do this, or if no executor has been nominated, the administrator (main beneficiary). Theyll contact the bank in question with proof of death to begin the process. The Death Certificate is typically accepted as proof.

What happens to a Santander bank account when someone dies?

In line with our Terms and Conditions, we will automatically transfer ownership of the account(s) to the surviving account holder(s) upon receipt of an acceptable death certificate. The account number(s) will remain the same however the account(s) will be renamed to the name(s) of the surviving account holder(s).

How do I tell Santander about a death?
