Best Bank

Amazing service in branch and I'm always met with a smile and never had to wait too long Reviewed on: 15th April 2021

Great bank, great service

5
I have used metro bank since I was 14 years old. I used to lose my bank card a lot and the staff would print me a new card there and then. The staff are always friendly, and if I have any issues they resolve them quickly. I haven't had any issues with them, and I recommend them to all my friends and family. Great bank, great service.

In touch with my needs.

5
I found that my previous bank, although very good at handling my cash, didn't also offer what I expect from a bank, which is the ability to do a bit of borrowing from time to time, on reasonable terms. With Metro, it's a proper bank and seems to do what only a bank can do; that's to say handle my cash, but also be prepared to lend so I can take advantage of opportunities or get over the odd hump in the road.

Polite and helpful staff

5
Since joing the Metro Bank last year we have found all the staff are polite, greeting all customers as they enter the bank. We have had fast and efficient service with all of the staff we have interacted with. The online banking app is easy to use and helps us keep track of our finances. Reviewed on: 15th April 2021

Pretty good but no open banking

3
I've been with metrobank for quite a few years now and found their service to be excellent. I'm considering leaving simply because they don't provide open banking links to other software like Xero or Sage despite promise to do so. Reviewed on: 15th April 2021

They blocked my card again

1
They blocked my card again , knowing already that I'm in Italy since the last coincidențe wich it was the same. Instead of they to call me and to ask me about the suspicious activity they was wondering on my card , they simply send me a text message to call them. When I didn't call them ,they blocked my card . And then I was forced again to call them from an Italian number , spending from my own credit (becouse I don't have international minutes) and I've spent nearly 1 hour , being transferred from one to another trying to solve the problems they created to me . I don't recommend this bank !! Reviewed on: 15th April 2021
