About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Metro Bank’s parking lot and noticed something unusual in one of the empty baskets on a shopping trolley. Curious, he picked it up—it was an old, dusty coin collection. As he examined the coins closer, he realized they were from different countries—some even looked ancient. Excitedly, he rushed inside to show his colleagues. Turns out, the coins belonged to a regular customer who had forgotten them during his last visit. Everyone had a good laugh over the mix-up, and now, whenever someone forgets something at Metro Bank, they joke that ‘the delivery guy might just discover another treasure!’
2. One day, an elderly gentleman walked into Metro Bank wearing a large suitcase. He approached the counter with a serious expression, but as he opened it, out tumbled piles of old newspapers and magazines. The teller smiled politely, asking what he needed. With a twinkle in his eye, the man replied, 'Just wanted to deposit these old papers.' As he left, he turned back and added, 'And don't worry, I'll be back next week for more!' The staff chuckled, realizing that Metro Bank had just become the city's unofficial recycling center.
3. On a chilly autumn morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Metro Bank's parking lot, puzzled by the sight of a small bird perched on one of the ATM machines. The driver gently approached and noticed it was just a sparrow, pecking at something tiny. With a smile, he took out his phone and called for maintenance, joking that maybe the bird needed help with its PIN. By lunchtime, the little visitor had flown away, leaving behind only a few feathers and a story for everyone in the neighborhood.
4. One night, a neighborhood watch volunteer stood alone in front of Metro Bank, scanning the empty streets with his flashlight. Suddenly, he heard a soft humming coming from inside. Curious but cautious, he peered through the glass door and saw nothing unusual—until he noticed the cash machine blinking softly like a Christmas tree. Smiling to himself, he realized it was just an old song stuck in its head. The next morning, everyone laughed when they found out 'Metro Bank' had been singing ‘Twinkle Twinkle Little Star’ all night.
