Complaints Data

At Metro Bank we’re fanatical about getting it right for our customers, but sometimes things do go wrong. To help you see how we’re performing we regularly publish how many complaints we’ve received, how many were resolved and how quickly we dealt with them. 

What happens next after you send us a complaint

We commit to resolving your complaint as quickly and fairly as we possibly can. In most cases, we aim to resolve matters within 3 working days but we may take a little longer where it’s a bit more complex.

If we are unable to provide a full response at this stage, or it’s taking longer than expected, we will write to you to let you know we are investigating the matter further.

How many complaints do you receive?

Every 6 months, we tell the Financial Conduct Authority how many complaints we’ve had, how many we resolved and how many we upheld.

You can find more information about this here.

What details will you need from me?

We will need the following information from you:

Your name
Your email address
Your phone number - either home or mobile
Details about your complaint

How long will it take?

We aim to have the more complex issues resolved within 15 calendar days. If we think it’s going to take longer, we’ll tell you and let you know if your complaint is eligible for referral to the Financial Ombudsman Service. We aim to have a full response for such cases within 35 calendar days.

What if my complaint isn’t resolved in 35 days?

If we can’t get to the bottom of it within 35 days, or if you’re unhappy with our final response, you can refer your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service. 
 
The Financial Ombudsman Service is a free and independent service to help resolve complaints, if it is clear that resolution cannot be reached with us in the first instance. Although there are time limits for referring your complaint to the Ombudsman, we will consent to the Ombudsman considering your complaint even if you refer the complaint outside the time limits.
 
There are some limitations to what they can investigate – visit www.financial-ombudsman.org.uk to find out more.
