Why do Metro Bank make applying for their top rated fixed ISA so difficult?

If the current provider is Virgin I wouldn't recommend you have any expectations of a smooth transfer to anywhere.

My Transfer from Virgin to Nat West was as smooth as a babies bottom.

That's because there are always exceptions to every situation, nothing is 100%. I'd call that lucky or if you look at interest rates, maybe unfortunate .

Hmm...

Re lucky. - My wife also had a trouble free Transfer from Virgin so doubly lucky, I wonder how much data you are basing your negative view on.

Re unfortunate - don't quite understand your point. I got a 5.9%1 year fixed with Nat west. Pretty good I think.  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
