    Is there a lady date in which referral should be paid by?

    Quick Question: Does the person being referred has to pay in £500 each calendar month or the month starting from the day of his account opening? Metro Bank's T&C's doesn't say much on this.
    TIA

    My instincts are to always to never gamble with the t&c's. Just pay the £500 in from the start and then also again each month in the next 2 months to make sure, as it's no hardship paying £500 in and back out same day.
    Thanks mate. I will follow your advice.

    I had a reply so expect this may apply to some of you too:

    Thanks for your patience.

    We haven't been able to link the registration with an account opening yet.

    We will investigate this further for you.

    Thank you,
    The Metro Bank team

    ...so in other words their RaF system has not worked at all for anyone. 
    for anyone involved with me regarding RaF, i'll give it another week then pursue and be in touch with you too if needed.

    Just been on the phone to the bank to put in a complaint. Spoke to 2 people ( security each time) before getting put through to complaints department (security again), unbeliveably, the first thing she said to me was, who told you or where did you see that you would get £50 for being referred to us as i have never heard of this !!!  There's only a big page on your website advertising this i said. I had to then leave it with her to find out more, but she did get back to me and said that i am on the list to be paid tomorrow....how many of you, like me, think that is a load of bull !

    As suspected, £50 was not paid into my account today.....message sent to formally register a complaint as i know the person in complaints i spoke to will not have registered my complaint as she was (allegedly) rectifying the situation.

    How rubbish are Metro with this?
    They did this offer to gain customers who may stick with them ....
    But this dog's dinner will only put customers off.

    Compare this with the Octopus energy switch offer, which went smoothly for all my referred people
    and we all got our £50s and £100s yesterday, soon after the switch !

    Yes, I spoke too soon, maybe.

    I got £100 in account now -presumably £50 for my new account and £50 for one of my referrals
    but no indication of which referral it refers to
