Metro Bank is known for its focus on customer convenience; branches are open 7 days a week, there’s no need to make an appointment, and the products on offer are transparent and accessible. It was launched in 2010 and, despite being the first new high street bank to open in over 150 years, has since received numerous awards for its financial services. When it comes to mortgages, Metro Bank reviews each application on an individual basis and aims to make the process of getting a loan as smooth as possible.

What types of mortgages can I get with Metro Bank?

  • Fixed rate Your mortgage rate will remain locked for a set amount of time.
  • Remortgages You can switch your existing mortgage to Metro Bank via one of its remortgage products.
  • Offset With this mortgage type, you can use your savings funds to offset the amount of the mortgage balance you pay interest on.
  • Tracker Your interest rate will shift up and down alongside another publicly-available interest rate, typically the Bank of England base rate.
  • Buy to let With this mortgage type, you’re eligible to purchase an additional property and let it out.
  • Shared ownership With this mortgage type, you can purchase a percentage of the property and pay rent on the remainder. You can then apply to buy additional percentages of the property as and when you can afford it.

How to apply

You can apply for a Metro Bank mortgage by calling 0345 08 08 500, visiting a local branch or arranging a callback via metrobankonline.co.uk

What information is needed to apply?

If you’re not an existing Metro Bank customer, you’ll need to provide proof of identity and proof of address. You’ll also need to provide proof of income via documents such as payslips, SA302s and company accounts.

Eligibility criteria

You must be aged over 18 when applying, and no older than 80 when the mortgage term is due to end. You must have lived in the UK for the last three years and be applying to purchase a property in England, Wales or Scotland.

Employed applicants must have been in continuous employment for the last 12 months, and in their current job for three months.

Metro Bank will still consider applicants who have unsatisfied CCJs and defaults (up to £500) and satisfied CCJs and defaults (up to £1000). You’ll still be considered if you’ve suffered a bankruptcy or an IVA, provided it was satisfied at least 3 years ago.

Frequently asked questions

We show offers we can track - that's not every product on the market...yet. Unless we've said otherwise, products are in no particular order. The terms "best", "top", "cheap" (and variations of these) aren't ratings, though we always explain what's great about a product when we highlight it. This is subject to our terms of use. When you make major financial decisions, consider getting independent financial advice. Always consider your own circumstances when you compare products so you get what's right for you. Most of the data in Finder's comparison tables is provided by Defaqto. In other cases, Finder has sourced data directly from providers.
