You notify his bank of the death of the holder of a bank account
One of your relatives (parents, spouse, etc.) dies. The bank branch of which he was a client should be alerted very quickly. The latter is in fact required to block the holder's account (s) (as well as his safe, if he had one), provided that it is not a joint account established at two names.
This operation prohibits any withdrawal or transfer of funds by a person who holds power of attorney on accounts established in the sole name of the holder. The last checks issued by the deceased will nevertheless be honored, as will automatic transfers (EDF, telephone, etc.) corresponding to expenses actually incurred by the holder before his death.
