Review of the Bath Building Society, Mortgages:

BIBS MORTGAGES

I HAVE BEEN A CUSTOMER OF BIBS FOR MANY YEARS AND HAVE ALWAYS FOUND THEM TO BE AT TH EFRONT OF BUSINESS AND CUSTOMER SERVICE, A SUPERB EXPERIENCE EVERY TIME Reviewed on: 25th March 2023

Reply from Bath Building Society Thank you Simon for your kind comments and leaving this feedback. Hopefully we can provide this kind of service for many more years to come. Ben Hutchings, Head of Mortgage Sales Response date: 27th March 2023

Very slow and archaic processes

Bath has a very system of reviewing applications and revisions. Where other firms are contactable usually vis telephone, every enquiry had to be submitted and wait in queue to be processed. The entire process of remortgaging a property took several months when in the past it has taken me weeks Reviewed on: 11th February 2022

Reply from Bath Building Society Thank you for taking the time to post this review. We’re committed to providing the highest level of service and take all feedback seriously. It would be appreciated if you could contact me directly so that I can investigate why the re-mortgage took several months to process. My email address is [email protected].

Reply from Bath Building Society Thank you for your feedback, that's good to hear and we'll make sure to pass it on to the team, Ben Hutchings, Head of Mortgage Sales. Response date: 10th February 2022

Poor customer service, slow to respond

It was such a slow archaic system in getting approval and then getting responses. My mortgage brokers were frustrated, as were my legal representation. Having had many mortgages over the years, this has been by far the most laborious, which is even more suprising given the large admin and arragement fees that you charge Reviewed on: 31st January 2022

Reply from Bath Building Society Thank you for your feedback. It would be appreciated if you could contact me directly so that I can investigate your case in more detail and hopefully learn from it. My email address is [email protected]. Although of little consolation, we are investing heavily in system improvements and I am hoping these will start to deliver customer experience improvements in the next few months. Lastly, when it comes to our Mortgage Tariff I have reviewed this and our lending fees over the last few weeks. We will shortly be announcing a simplified and reduced Mortgage Tariff for existing customers and are also simplifying our fees for new customers. This will include us removing certain fees such as the 'admin' fee and completion fee from our core products. As already mentioned I would be more than happy to discuss this further but I will need you to contact me or provide me with your contact details to do so. Colin McDougall, Chief Commercial Officer. Response date: 2nd February 2022
