Excellent service all round.

5
They are so happy to help on the phone or in person. It’s like a hotel service. Fast service, smiles, they want to help rather than feeling they have to. Never had a bad experience with them since opening an account. Been 7 years now Reviewed on: 9th March 2021

The Bank for YOU

5
Metrobank provides a very personal and caring service. I use internet banking, which is so straightforward and safe to operate. I also go into my local branch fairly frequently and the staff are a credit to Metrobank. Altogether the bank for ME - why not YOU? Reviewed on: 9th March 2021

Simplistic, limited barriers and condensed corporate language...

5
I recently opened an account online and noticed the wording was not the usual "corporate" language which you would expect from a bank. The experience was more aligned to a retail platform, with quick and simple stages. Part way through I actually abandended my application, due to personal I.D. and not being local to a store, which I'll be honest, I almost forgot to come back to! Anyways, I received an email with an update and a time frame to process. (My passport had now been returned). I was directed back to where I had left off, saving time inputting again. My account was opened within minuets and I had the mobile app, together with my online log-in details, all set up shortly after. I was then asked what my preference was for a card / pin, which I choose for postal and they arrived within days... All the way through, I was given the option of how I wanted to bank, the information was clear and hassle free! Thanks Metro! Reviewed on: 9th March 2021

Nice and efficient
