If as you say you'll be visiting the bank, SunTrust may suggest an easier way. Otherwise, the best you can do is to close one account and make the transfer yourself. Before you close a single account, contact all of the companies with which you have automatic deposits or debits and move them to the new account. Be sure all scheduled payments have cleared, though. Then stop using your debit card so you won't create more pending transactions.
