Metro Bank blocked my account just before Christmas. I have provided all evidences they asked for and yet the won't unblock my account. The sad thing is whilst my friends from other banks are spoken to on the phone and are asked to upload evidences through a document portal with 24 to 5 days turn around, you'll have to send Metro Bank the documents through email with 7 working days turn around. After the 7th day, they won't bother to contact you. Its just horrible 😞 😢 😪 😔 .

Im fuming. Got blocked out of my account on Christmas day for receiving money from a friend and my girlfriend. Then they asked for me to send their bank statements???. What???? To prove it wasn't fraud. Ive been with the bank for 10 years. Ive received payments from the same accounts for years. 2 weeks later still have not been able to access my money. But they still accepted my wages to go in, which I can't access either. I have been left without money for gas electric or food. Disgrace.

Outgoing payment held by Metro Bank and I have had to wait a combined 3 hours on the telephone to resolve matter, still unresolved. They kept passing me from 1 team to another. At a point after waiting on the telephone for good 50mins, customer service rep dropped the call. If I could give no star, I would. Poor service and staff are very lackadaisical the way they respond.

My local branch is Uxbridge. Staff are unfriendly and some services nor available. Eg: if magic money machine is out of order, cannot deposit more than 5 bags of coins. But other branches are accepted. Staff said that its branch policy. But nothing written to explain at counters or Uxbridge branch. I have decided to switch my banking to barclays bank. Very disappointed

Metrobank sta elena too slow ang mga teller, should provide extra teller Kung maraming Tao. Wala na magagawa mga customers nasayang na lahat ng oras sa pag aantay. Dapat iniintindi nyo mga customers na marami pa kami dapat gawin at hindi sa loob ng banko mauubos ang oras namin. Kung single transaction dapat may bukod na teller, parang sa groceries may basket lane. Yung iba need na gumamit ng toilet, yung iba natutulog na. Sana maim prove nyo service nyo, malaki oras at pera nawawala sa amin Kung ganyan katagal ang services nyo. Ganun din sa inyo tingin ko. Alam nyo na dapat gawin hindi na need ng ipaliwanag, matatalino naman kayo.

Bad experience from the start.. Went twice to their Branch just to open an account with them.. Compared to other banks, their interest are nothing.. you’re money won’t grow.. waste of investment.. no rebates.. This bank gave me so much anxiety with Bank Transfer issues too!! Even tried to apply for Credit Card since I already have Savings Account with them, total waste of time because they just rejected my application! When I finally decided to move/transfer to another bank, they charged me more P1k for closing my account with them.. Worst banking experience ever!!!

Criminal until provent innocent … Nightmare Bank They've messed me around FraudSupportingDocuments review team. My money and hard savings taken hostage by this bank for no good reason for over 3 weeks You answer the emails and send the evidence and still get treated like a criminal No number to call or person to interact with. Emails go unanswered for weeks. No respect for the customer's hard earned cash. Treated like a criminal. Never trust this bank with your money. One day they'll freeze your cash and send you emails for weeks asking for evidence it's your money, you send all the evidence and wait for more weeks then they'll say you haven't sent enough. Nightmare

My 80 y/o mother went with my sister to open an account in Colchester branch, the woman who saw them was rude, rushing to end her working day. Denied the application allegedly because my mother is not 100% fluent in English! Discriminated my mother for our nationality and language, even she suggested them to go to other bank where she might be accepted! My son and I have accounts there since 2012 and now we're going to close both our accounts thanks to this woman. They went next day to Halifax and she's got her own bank account there.

I would say this bank has abysmal customer service. The branch officer is in no capacity to help. They just forwarded my emails to the handling unit with no positive outcome. No OTP was ever received on my international mobile number. It was a recurring problem from last year’s. The IT system is moving backwards. I won’t recommend this bank to OFWs.

Very poor service, they made me wait 30 mins before someone answered the call. I will not recommend anyone to use their services.

I called to ask for annual fee waiver, customer service said they don't offer fee waiver THAT IS NOT TRUE! I'm also working in a financial institution, fee can be waived! Inconsiderate customer service!

The worst bank ever . At the beginning it was ok but now for many months he can not pay by card because the bank immediately blocks his account! This is abnormal!!! Without any information or inquiry whether it is his transaction block his account and that's it! He called the bank many times in this matter but it did not help! Currently, he has a blocked account from over a week, for over a week he can not use the account, for more than a week he should not eat because where to get the money if not from his account? He did not use the account and when he checks the account balance on the application, there is less money every day, often the account is in the red!!!! And he doesn't do any transactions during that time!!!! I do not recommend !!!
