Review of the Bath Building Society, Mortgages:

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

A longstanding professional relationship

I have been a borrower for some 25 years. My mortgage rate had expired and my mortgage was getting near to end of term. The mortgage department delivered reliable, good service in order to assist me. Reviewed on: 26th March 2025

Good service but sometimes slow

4
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!

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
Reply from Bath Building Society Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. I'm so pleased that you had a great experience and that the buy for university mortgage was available for you. I will forward your comments to the team. Ian Birch, Senior Mortgage Advisor Response date: 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
Reply from Bath Building Society Hi Marios, thank you for taking the time out and providing this feedback. Due to recent changes in stamp duty that comes into play soon, we received a high volume of applications that affected out normal service standards.
