Metro bank offer extended opening hours including Sunday's! Making sporadic trips to the bank so much easier. They also had a free service changing coins into cash or paid into your account. An overall practical bank for busy working people. Reviewed on: 14th February 2016

A different style of banking!

Metro Bank's current account offers a few benefits including purchases and cash withdrawls free in Europe. It was originally worldwide but was sadly scaled back to Europe a few years ago! The banks branches are limited in number but opening hours are late and the bank if open 7 days a week which is really useful for those working during the day. Service on the phone and in branch is great. The online banking is a little underwhelming but functional none the less! Reviewed on: 24th December 2015

Modern bank

A great bank to do business with in brighton. Has certainly shown up some of the lazier staff in other local branches - but not convinced them to raise their game yet! Reviewed on: 27th November 2015
