Review of the Bath Building Society, Mortgages:

THE exemplar of the best

5
Bath Building Society is an, no probably THE exemplar of how to balance digital excellence with warm and receptive personal customer/member service. At a time when on-line and customer services among financial services providers and public utilities are far from an acceptable level of service BBS are a joy to deal with. Whatever the Society does to imbue all its staff with what makes a society if they could bottle it it would be what everyone went for. Every contact is a demonstration that being nice, professional and helpful people to deal with doesn't have to be neglected to be a commercial success. Reviewed on: 6th March 2025

Good service but sometimes slow

Customer service was good but some of the internal processes seemed very slow. We received excellent prompt responses when we chased for progress but would have preferred not to have to chase either by quicker processes or regular updates. Reviewed on: 24th March 2025
Reply from Bath Building Society Hi Jon, thanks for taking the time out and leaving this feedback. Unfortunately we have been very busy due to the changes in stamp duty coming into force shortly, with a high volume of applications. I'm glad we were able to assist when you contacted us.

Excellent from start to finish! One of only a few companies that offer a buy-for-uni mortgage so that was a good start. Every step of the way we were treated with professionalism and told what was happening. I could not recommend you more!!! Reviewed on: 19th March 2025

Overall good. Just slow.

They are just slow as the process seems manual for the mortgage. Everything turned out good though. So just be prepared for a slow application. Reviewed on: 18th March 2025
