Final answer:
To unlink a bank account from Plaid, remove Plaid's access through each app linked with your bank by following their specific process to disconnect or remove the bank account, and contact customer support if needed.
Step-by-step explanation:
To unlink a bank account from Plaid, you will typically need to follow a multi-step process. Plaid functions as a middleman between your bank account and the financial applications you use; therefore it does not have a direct user interface for consumers to manage their connections. Instead, you must remove Plaid's access through each individual financial app you've linked. Here are some general steps:
- Log into the finance app you've connected with your bank through Plaid.
- Find the section that manages your connected bank accounts (usually under settings or profile).
- Locate the option to disconnect or remove the bank account and confirm the action.
If you're unable to unlink your bank account from a specific app, contact the app's customer support for assistance. Remember, removing access from one app does not remove access from all apps connected via Plaid. Repeat these steps for each app you've used Plaid to link accounts with.
