People helping people

5
At Metrobank you see people you know at a branch and not speak to strangers or machines who don't know you and don't really care. Reviewed on: 10th March 2023

Safe secure bank - easy to contact

5
Metro bank has been great in their security measures as they have contacted me when there was a suspicious transaction on my account, I had to call Metro Bank at 2’oclock in the morning and I was still able to get through to someone and resolve the issue as it had caused my account to have a block on it. In whole, Metro bank advisors have been able to advise me on which account would be best for me as this is my first bank that I have been with. I would definitely recommend them to friends and family! Reviewed on: 10th March 2023

Beat customer service

5
Whenever I need help with my online banking or if I’m having any issue I always pop in at metro and helped straight away. Reviewed on: 10th March 2023

How a bank should be !

5
Their opening hours are excellent, they have ‘real people’ who answer the phone for queries without a long wait and the branches in Edgware and Harrow have fab counter staff. The money box to count coins and deposit them into your account is just another way of making the ‘customer journey’ as stress free as possible. Reviewed on: 10th March 2023

Optimum banking experience all round !!!!

5
When i first changed my account it was so simple …. I went into the bank were all the staff were smart dressed and the customer service was what you would expect in a 5 star hotel . I am an ex Royal Marine with PTSD and have memory problems at times . When ever i have lost my card it was replaced with in 15 minutes of me being in the bank and due to the set up in the bank people get dealt with faster and more efficiently .Previously i was with Halifax and the service compared to Metro is nothing in comparison . I am not to good with internet and internet banking and when i made my appointment they went through it with me with patience and care and took the time to show me how it worked . I have had dealings with many off the staff and all were friendly , smart and totally customer focused . Even the decor of there banks are much better than any of there competitors spacious , nice colours and open plan . They even have no problem with my dogs with treats for them on the side . I could not recommend switching to them enough lets just say its different from your other banks on every level and I’ve been with 2 or 3 in my 53 years on earth. There staff must have superior customer service training as they genuinely care about your experience while your in there. I rarely would write a recommendation for anything but feel on this occasion i would take the time out of my day to do so before i go and walk my two chocolate labs in the forest .

Customer Focused Banking

The bank is customer focused, recognising their needs, from outside working hours in bank, to providing replacement cards instantly. Being available when the customer is available. Reviewed on: 10th March 2023
