Metro Bank Current account reviews (10581)

It is a bank with a difference.

5
I have had a current account with Metro for the past several years. While I am not making full use of the facilities available, I am very much encouraged to increase mu banking with the Metro, as it seems to be the MOST trouble free, responsible and highly professional bank as compared to all the BIG banks that we have got in the UK. It is my judgement that it will in the near future grow to the biggest bank of this country. Primarily because of its realistic policies on all customers. I am hoping it will soon come up with slightly better saving schemes than are currently offered by other competing banks. It is my honest and impartial judgement that the METRO should get the British Bank Award 2021 so that others can follow its footsteps... Reviewed on: 10th March 2021

Wonderful customer services

5
I always get the most wonderful service from the call team, the staff in the bank and the overall customer service from this bank. It is the only account I have now and use, the interest rates are competitive and it's just a much better bank that doesn't penalise you! That is why I felt compelled to write this review.

more power to the Bank's elbow....

I have rare need to contact the bank branch/staff and they are always helpful, friendly and positive when I do. I really hope Metro Bank makes further inroads into the complacent UK personal banking market in coming years Reviewed on: 10th March 2021

The greatest customer experience journey from any company

5
I love Metro Bank. Everyone knows I love it, I always talk about it. I was having so much difficulty with another bank that I won't name, struggling to withdraw money or just see someone at the bank on a Saturday morning, queuing for hours just to be told that there was another issue with my account. The last time that happened, I crossed the street and walked into a Metro Bank branch and asked to open an account. Within 15 minutes I had a new card, all of my money transferred, my direct debits set up, and a cherry flavoured lollipop. Any time I need to go into the bank, they're open. Any time I lose my card? They'll print a new one straight away. The staff are so friendly in branch AND on the phone. I honestly would never switch banks again. Thank you Metro Bank Reviewed on: 10th March 2021

Excellent customer service, both over the phone and in branch

5
The best bank i have ever banked with, certainly in terms of customer service. When contacting them by phone you always get an answer in a couple of rings by a real person. In branch service is also excellent if you need to go in. Reviewed on: 10th March 2021
