Awful service
Awful service, requested a new phone as part of an upgrade and I asked them to keep the same number, however Metrofone set me up on a new plan with a new number so I lost the number I’ve had for 15 years. Never go through a third party like Metrofone, go to your provider direct

Good Afternoon, Neil,
Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear about your recent experience, and apologise for the inconveniences you have faced.
After reviewing your account, we can see that you’ve applied for a new connection and not an upgrade. During checkout, you did mention having an existing number with the network. However, we do clearly state under this section: “Please note, you are applying for a new connection. Providing your existing number only helps us identify you with the network.”
We have sent you an email advising you of a porting process which will allow you to keep your new contract along with your existing number, if you need any assistance with this please do not hesitate to contact our dedicated customer service team on 0333 900 1133 and select option 2.
Kind regards,
DA

hassle free
I purchased a contracted phone through Metrofone, and the experience was entirely hassle-free. I was consistently kept informed throughout the application process, which took approximately three days. I highly recommend their service.

cashback claim
Made claim for the cashback back in February when it was due. The claim had been processed and accepted but failed to honour the payment due.Email mailed three times and a phone call, keep stating waiting for the development team response for the payment.Another claim is due soon as per the contract.
I'm thinking of taking legal advice.
Never ever going to deal with this company again .

Scammers
Went through uswitch to find a new phone. Metrofone seemed to have a good deal on so i went for it. Took an upfront payment of £25 from my bank then next day they cancelled my order. I failed their security checks apparently. So i'm left with a credit check on my file (which i did pass btw) waiting for a £25 refund and no phone which i was relying on coming.
Absolutely disgusting behaviour from this company they need banning from uswitch as ive heard they've done this before...uswitch will be my next complaint letter!

Good Afternoon Malcolm,
Thank you for your review!
I do apologise that you have not had the best experience with Metrofone.
Looking into your account I can see we have contacted you in regards to our security checks, as discussed our security checks are automated and unfortunately we are not provided with the reason as to why it gets declined to prevent fraudulent orders and security purposes. I can see we contacted you to try and resolve the issue but you have advised you have placed another order.
If you wish to discuss anything further please do not hesitate to contact us on 0333 900 1133 and select option 2.
Again I do apologise for any inconvenience that may have been caused by this.
Kind regards,
MJ
Don’t use them
Don’t use them! They had a good deal on a iphone16 so I chose to take it. Took all my personal details and an up front cost and told me the order has been successfully placed (luckily I took a screenshot). Didn’t get an order ID or any emails to acknowledge the order. Waited 3 days (phone was promised as Next Day delivery) and emailed them and they responded with “your credit check passed but you failed a security check - we’ve cancelled your order”. Great. I asked why the security check failed - can’t tell me. The credit check passed with the network provider (Three), and it’s permanently on my credit record, but Metrofone’s own checks failed so I can’t have the phone/contract. I asked why they didn’t do security checks before passing to Three for a credit check - can’t tell me for security reasons. Deal seemed too good to be true - I guess it was. Makes me think they didn’t have the phones available in the first place. Just a data collecting exercise. I’m now left with a credit check on my file but no phone. Also, they can’t tell me how long I will have to wait for my refund on my initial payment. Absolutely shocking. Deal was recommended by uswitch so I am taking up a complaint with them as well as Three.
*Adding the order number to the review as Metrofone messaged me saying they can’t find my order on their system - MF00315658
