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.

Applied for a mortgage with the Bath Building Society and from initial enquiry to getting the offer the service has been excellent . My adviser Ian Birch has been amazing . He took time to explain everything in great detail and quickly responded to any questions I had regarding my application. I cannot recommend him highly enough. Process was easy to complete and all done in a very good timescale. Was kept informed at all times and made the whole process painless. I would have no hesitation in recommending Ian and the Bath Building society. Reviewed on: 3rd November 2025
