ACH Debit Returned Account Closed Email Template

Use this page when an ACH debit failed because the buyer's bank account is closed, inactive, or otherwise no longer valid for collection. This is a different business moment from an insufficient-funds return. The issue is not temporary liquidity; it is that the payment method on file is broken and must be replaced before any new collection attempt can succeed. Your email should ask whether the buyer has moved to a new account, whether the debit authorization needs to be reissued against new details, and whether an immediate manual payment should be made while the banking setup is corrected. The outcome you want is to stop repeated failed collection attempts and secure either valid new bank details or a committed alternative payment route. It is commercially strong because the visitor is trying to recover payment after the stored collection path has effectively disappeared.
