Great service

I love being greeted at the door. Reviewed on: 22nd November 2017

Saved me a fortune

I used to pay lots of money in fines every month to Santander and since I moved to Metro it immediately dropped. Leaving money in my account within a month or 2 stopped all of my fines, can't remember the last time I got a fine Reviewed on: 21st November 2017

Superb!

Best thing i have ever done in terms of banking! One of our clients had lost his Metro current account card on a Sunday and need it straightaway again because he was travelling the very next day to Qatar. He went to Metro, was issued the card there and then. Since then i have switched as well and am absolutely happy banking with Metro! Reviewed on: 11th November 2017

Great Banking Service

Lost a credit card in machine at the door - manager opened machine and gave it back to me. That would have been a two week hassle with any other bank. Drew Kingston upon Thames Reviewed on: 10th November 2017

Simply Excellent

I drove 100 miles to open my account and it was worth it. Whenever I'm in a branch of Metro, it's consistently great service. As the branches steadily expand northbound; I'm looking forward to the day that I can sack my existing bank. Reviewed on: 10th November 2017

Defies description

A cowboy bank that employ people directly from the Vicky pollard School of customer services with a high turnover of staff and average age being around 19 years old my experience has been damaging and I wouldn’t go near any Metro Branch unless it was the The underground of Paris !! Reviewed on: 8th November 2017

Easy to use

Really easy to use. Bank cards printed there and then. Using a photo for identification. Decent app. No transaction fees in Europe for foreign currency. Open at reasonable times. Great bank but shame it is only in London. Reviewed on: 8th November 2017

Great customer service

I went in to open my account. The executive was very warm and friendly. The best thing is assurance that my account will be open within a day, which many other banks couldnŠ—Èt, other banks gave me appointment after weeks l. Metro bank tops in customer service and makes your banking experience great. Reviewed on: 7th November 2017
