Review of the Bath Building Society, Mortgages:

Very quick service, smooth and efficient service

5
Very quick service. From application to mortgage offer just under 4 weeks, this at a time when all institutions were inundated with applications to beat the labour stamp duty increases. I had been advised that there would be a delay because of the SD increases so was pleasantly surprised to receive my offer in such a timely manner. Tim was especially helpful at the application stage. I have now had notice of completion. All in all a very smooth and pleasant experience Well done BIBS, impressed with you.

Buy for Uni mortgage

5
We applied for a niche product, a Buy for Uni mortgage, which is only offered by 3 lenders. In fact, of the 3, the Bath BS was the only one that could meet all our criteria. Excellent service from start to finish with supportive and informative advice from Tim Randell. The application form was a little old fashioned, completed in pen and posted back! But in reality it was no problem. It was processed quickly and the offer made without any real delays. Reviewed on: 28th June 2024

Tim Randall is an absolute credit to the organisation

5
Tim helped us with securing a mortgage, in quite complex and trying circumstances,. His communication, diligence, professionalism, and kindness made a very difficult time much easier. I genuinely think that other agents might have given up on us, but Tim drove the process to completion. Really can't thank him enough. Reviewed on: 24th May 2024

Helpful staff provided easy and clear information about my case that is with the lender. Definitely feels like a human being approach rather than a PC Reviewed on: 15th May 2024

Bath Building Society gave us a break

5
We have had 3 mortgages with Bath Building Society over the last 35 years and are now mortgage free. They were the only company who would listen to us when buying our first home and won’t forget that they trusted us and provided us with that first rudder to the housing market. Thank you Reviewed on: 15th April 2024
