Help me write a message to close an account.

Wait for my answers. Then: 1. A short, firm closure message with the date and a request for written confirmation. 2. What the confirmation should include. 3. A follow-up chaser if they don't reply. 4. A reminder to download statements or cancel mandates first if relevant. Only use what I've told you, leave blanks for anything I haven't given, and don't invent facts, figures or products. UK English. Stay in this ChatGPT chat.
