3 November reply received asking me to phone about it
5th November reply received saying could raise complaint via secure message, needed me to quote account number it relates to even though I only hold 1 account
6th November reply received repeating above reply even though I quoted account number when I replied to 5th November replyI have replied asking if a robot has been replying to my secure messages and asking for responses to be reviewed with my apparent concern about very poor responses wasting my time added to my complaintGet asked whether want to stay logged in, click yes and guess what " an error occured" logged out, so much for a "ethical bank"message sent

I took that to twitter as well LOL, answer was no other way, day I phoned 9am got message saying shut ( call cost 2,00 as didnt realise Virgin Mobile had changed PAYGO system as dont normally make calls) , turmed out later starting hours which could be seen on some ( not all) Metro Bank links, Metro Bank help on twitter arranged for someone to phone me, amazingly long call to activate a debit card lol

gsmh said:bristolleedsfan said:so much for a "ethical bank""In my life if I feel something is wrong then it's wrong, regardless of whether the other party does it or not. I was brought up with 'two wrongs don't make a right'. If a bank is unethical I don't bank with them. Simple"I get it, you signed up for Metro Bank and tried to get up to 5 referrals signing up purely for the free money like virtually all of us, must be a similar ID to yours that has regularly had plenty to say negatively about others doing the same thing.

I have had a Metro Bank account for years. Indeed I travelled to London when the first store launched, just to open an account. There was no reward offered back then. I offered my code for referrals since I could see nothing unethical about doing so.1
