Unprofessional

Metro Bank, without explanation or notice, froze my account completely when I tried to make a transfer. I have never had this situation before with any other bank, they wanted to know the nature of the initial deposits into the account made over a month ago which I only found out after ringing them. Had to make numerous calls over several days to resolve the matter, in most cases their responses were inconsistent, some staff totally immature, inexperienced and unprofessional. Had to obtain advice from the financial ombudsman and also reported to the financial conduct authority. There are several examples online of Metro Bank doing the same to other customers. The bank never put anything in writing, no updates or calls. They only lifted the restriction on my account after I threatened to sue. This bank gave me week of misery and undue stress, I am glad I have now switched to HSBC. In summary, Metro Bank very poor service and far from professional compared to high street banks.
