Dear Sir / Madam,
The Bank may be right in their way. You may request them in writing to provide you with a latest Loan Statement, and if due and pending settlement, I strongly advice and recommend that you negotiate a settlement and pay off and close the loan A/c all in writing for your record.
Regards,
