Putting the big banks to shame...

5
When one of the big high-street banks couldn't change my wife's account to her married name after two appointments and then telling us it would take 10 days... we walked into Metro Bank. 40 minutes later, we'd opened a joint account and walked out with debit cards, a chequebook and working internet banking. Our nearest branch is open both days of the weekend which makes it so much easier if we need to go there. The staff are always exceptionally helpful - and the dog gets free biscuits.

Metro Bank is so customer focussed. They stay open late for those of us that work in the day and can't make it to the bank, they treat you well in the branch, and they even look after your dog! Reviewed on: 6th January 2019

Definitely Reccommend

Every time I've needed help it's always been done straightaway. I've always experienced great customer service and the bank itself is open longer hours and more accessible. It was easier to open a current account, I was also given a tour around and made to feel important. Reviewed on: 30th December 2018
