Metro Bank Business Banking reviews (2235)

Very bad experience from an unethical bank

Unfortunately I had the most painful experience with this bank. On July 2019 my business account was frozen without any prior notification. I called them to find out what the reason was and they just confirmed the restriction without giving any reason. This is while several direct debits, card transactions, customer payments they all went on hold and my business suffered financial losses. A few days later I noticed that my personal account with my life savings inside it also got restricted. No reason, no clarification, no updates! Exact same thing happened to several other people who happened to be Iranian nationals. Having consulted with experienced solicitors, I have strong grounds to believe this was done based on a discriminatory measure to racially profile citizens and dual nationals of a certain country i.e. Iran. For more than 6 months my life savings were stuck in this bank without giving me any reason or a time frame within which they aim to complete their so called review. It was yesterday that I received a letter giving me a 60 day notice for closing my account after 6 months of so called "review". I went through the most stressful days of my life throughout this period and had to cancel my holiday as I was left penniless. I borrowed money from family and friends to afford my life. Lack of decency, professionalism and ethics in this bank is beyond comprehension. Not recommended at all, stay away! Reviewed on: 6th February 2020

FAN of Metro

Efficient and easy banking , with friendly staff who are always happy to help Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Metro Bank do customer service and tech really well

24/7 phone lines with quick answering by real people; early and late opening stores and at weekends, cards printed same day, card readers set u - all of the stuff they do to make it convenient for the customer. The tech is really good with AI built in to help manage unexpected transactions or new payments. My favourite is when I’l waiting for a payment and the app lets me know when it’s arrived. Makes money much more manageable. But the biggest thing I find when I speak to Metro Bank colleagues, is the real care for people. Genuinely, everyone wants to do their best for each and every customer. They’re driven and motivated and it’s great to see they’re up there at the British Bank Awards. No wonder so many companies are switching their business accounts across. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2020
