Whilst I feel Metro's customer service standards have slipped a bit since last year the fact that they open their branches at times convenient to the customer and also do not charge on cash withdrawals in Europe they still get my vote! Reviewed on: 6th November 2018

Friendly customer service and great app.

Real people in branch and great app option. 24 hour call centre and free transactions on my debit card whenever I travel to Europe. Reviewed on: 6th November 2018
