Easy banking

5
It’s easy and stress free to bank with metro bank as they are open 7 days week and only close a couple of times in the year. The current account is the best to have as it gives you access 24/7 online and on your mobile. I have been banking with them 10 years now and would recommend them for all their services. Safety deposit boxes free money counting service and one of the best is you are their personal touch with you being greeted as you enter the store. I won’t be changing anytime soon.

My favourite Bank!

5
I was one of your first customers when you opened in Tottenham Court Road. I have found your hours much better than other Banks and your personal service and attention in branches faultless. When I was living in Israel for several years, you did not charge me for withdrawing my cash there via the ATMs until those rules changed. I recommended you to many, many UK tourists visiting the souvenir shop where I was volunteering and as they visited Israel frequently, you will be pleased to hear that many opened a Metro account. I also have a savings account and am pleased with the rates, albeit poor due to the global financial situation. I LOVE your free pens, dog biscuits etc and the little dog friendly icons everywhere! In fact, your Bank gave me a dog bowl with "METRO BANK RULES" inside, along with dog biscuits and a dog necktie for my shared dog in Israel. When I brought these to my Israeli friends, they were astounded and when they were having a complaint session with their personal Israeli Bank Manager, they held up the bowl and necktie for their dog from the Metro Bank and said: "Look what the Metro Bank does! Your service is terrible! You give us nothing!" So you are famous in Jerusalem! Thank you for your great service. Reviewed on: 25th March 2021
