With customers now able to open a Current Account online in a matter of minutes from the comfort of their own home, the whole of the UK can benefit from the bank’s travel money service. In fact, Metro Bank is the only high street bank to offer both its Current Account and Credit Card customers fee free transactions across 33 European countries – with no non-sterling transaction or purchase fees.
