Metro Bank, Britain's first new High Street retail bank in more than 100 years, opened for business today


The company's launch was accompanied with an array of gimmicks to attract maximum publicity, such as the offer of biscuits for customers' dogs and free breakfasts for clients.

The banking hours might be useful for some. I don't know if some banks already do open outside normal hours, but certainly they don't around here.

8am to 8pm Mondays to Fridays
8am to 6pm Saturdays
11am to 4pm Sundays.
Sunday Banking is new as far as I know, although they do have Saturday morning banking in plum locations.

I am not sure about free breakfasts, are there not now health and safety laws and you need a license to feed people these days.
I reckon that's a sandwich in a sealed packet or something. Coffee might be popular though if you have to queue up.

Being able to get to your bank might be a good thing for people who are working. There was a time I'd have been very pleased with that. Now though it's less important as I do most things online.
