English Language & Usage Asked by Vivek Nath R on January 23, 2021
Given some modifications the two sentences can be made sense of.
I've closed your account, and I'll reopen it by 30/11/2020. (This means "I'll reopen it not later than 30/11/2020)
I've closed your account for a period to end 30/11/2020. (The period will end precisely on 30/11/2020, at a given time on that day, depending on how days are counted.)
If an event "ends on" a day, does the day constitute a part of the event?

I've closed your account by 30/11/2020
I've closed your account to 30/11/2020
Neither of these makes sense. They are both incorrect.
You could say
I've closed your account until 30/11/2020. This means that you have closed it temporarily and you will reopen it on 30/11/2020.
or you could say
I've closed your account (effective) from 30/11/2020. This means that the account was/will be closed on 30/11/2020. There is no indication that it will ever be reopened.
