How to Locate a Bank Account Number

Everyone that has a checking or savings account is issued an account number. This number is used to reference the account when you want to deposit or withdrawal money. If you do not know the account number of your bank account, you can easily find out.

• Log in to an online banking account that is associated with the checking account number you would like to locate. Look for a link that says "Download Bank Statement" and click on the link. Once the statement opens in PDF format, look on the top of the statement to locate the account number associated with the checking or savings account you hold.

• Locate a past bank statement that has been mailed to you. Banks usually mail out monthly bank statements through the mail. You can easily find the account number associated with the account printed on the top on any monthly bank statement.

• Visit the bank where you have a checking or savings account open and ask them to provide you with the account number associated with the account you have open with them. They may ask you to provide a picture ID prior to releasing this information to you, so be sure to bring proper identification.

• Look at a past deposit slip that you may have from a previous withdrawal or deposit that you have made. The account number of the account will be located on this slip.

• Look at the numbers on the bottom of a check to determine the account number. The second set of numbers located on the bottom of the check is the account number associated with the bank account.
