Amazing

5
A dedicated team around the clock to help customers Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Overall decent

Fairly new customer however have had no major issues. Plus January, a guy in the customer service team gave a free fiver as a new year gesture, especially when in the January crisis! Reviewed on: 1st February 2019

Fresh new branch approach

5
Held a Metro account for four years now and it’s been a great bank. Branch (store!) opening hours are great, the branches are clean, bright and Buck the stuffy high street branch trend of other banks. Staff are friendly, often chosen for being new to banking but that doesn’t mean their competency is questionable- quite the opposite. Joy to deal with, just a shame they are all in the South of England! Reviewed on: 29th January 2019

Simply the best bank on the high street

5
Open my account without any fuss. Set up online banking, which was my choice. Printed my card there and then. Best interaction I’ve had in a bank brilliant Reviewed on: 17th January 2019

Friendly and helpful staff combined with modern banking

5
Friendly staff give clear explanations about the services offered / asked for. Account opening was a doddle and I left the branch with debit card in hand and online banking set-up and ready to be used. Reviewed on: 14th January 2019

Metro is fantastic!

5
Super quick account opening. Walked into branch with no appointment. Walked out 15 mins later with an account, card in my wallet, internet and mobile banking all set-up and I’d had a cup of tea too! Reviewed on: 14th January 2019

So simple to open

5
Opening my current account was the easiest interaction with any bank I’ve ever had! Reviewed on: 14th January 2019

Great customer service

5
I have only been with Metro bank for a short time but find the customer service very efficient and helpful. It’s always easy to get through and actually speak to someone with any queries and I also find the online banking easier to navigate than other online banks. Reviewed on: 13th January 2019

Really good easy banking
