Metro Bank Is Set To Open Its New Wimbledon Branch


Two-day long party will mark the opening of new bank

Metro Bank is opening its Wimbledon town centre branch in the high profile Wimbledon Bridge location on Friday October 21.

It will be the company’s 43rd store, and it's running a two-day long party to mark its arrival in the town. This will include include live music, stilt walkers, dog shows, giveaways and other family entertainment.

Kevin Barrett, Regional Director, Metro Bank said: “We are really excited to open in Wimbledon, bringing with us not only a truly convenient and customer focused banking alternative, but also a commitment to support the local community.

“Our stores play a central role in enabling us to get to know our customers, as well as supporting local residents and businesses, and I look forward to meeting everyone at our grand opening celebrations.”

Metro Bank is open seven days a week, early until late, and provides instant account opening, along with on-the-spot card printing for lost or stolen credit or debit cards. All stores offer safe deposit boxes for customers’ valuables and free coin counting for customers and non-customers alike.

It takes on the site vacated by WHSmith, Waterstone’s and Cargo. WHSmith has recently opened a new store in the Centre Court shopping centre and a new Waterstone’s branch will be opening on The Broadway.

  • Metro Bank’s opening times are: 8am – 8pm Monday – Friday, 8am – 6pm Saturday and 11am – 5pm Sundays and bank holidays, 362 days a year.
