Contact Dave through the in-app chat feature or call (844) 857-3283 and provide details about the transaction. You can also email support@dave.com.

You must repay any outstanding ExtraCash advance before closing your account. Contact Dave through the in-app chat or email support@dave.com to request account closure. Reducing your balance to zero alone does not close the account — you must submit a formal closure request. Dave may decline your request if you carry a negative balance.
