Review of the Bath Building Society, Mortgages:

BBS were great for our guest house mortgage

Bath Building Society was very flexible and set up a mortgage for our guest house. All the other lenders we approached (Lloyds, Natwest, Halifax etc.) were unable to help because we didn't fall into a standard tickbox category. The rate was always competitive, we had a series of discounted rate deals. Been with them for about 20 years. I highly recommend BBS. Reviewed on: 24th April 2025

Friendly staff helping with a joint borrower sole proprietor mortgage

Ian Birch, the mortgage adviser was very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. One thing was irritating though: the society’s insistence that I obtained independent legal advice. This is clearly required simply to protect the society from accusations that their customers are not fully informed of the risks associated with the product. Spending £300 to have an independent lawyer (they won’t let you use the lawyer you are already paying to do the conveyancing!) tell you what you already know is irritating - I felt like I was having to pay to provide protection to the society in case of a future legal challenge. As it is the society’s risk, not mine, but they insist on me receiving advice I don’t need, I feel that they should pay for this, not me. Reviewed on: 12th June 2022

Reply from Bath Building Society Thank you for taking the time out to provide this feedback and glad Ian was of assistance. Feel free to contact myself anytime should you wish to have some more detail about Independent Legal Advice at [email protected]. Ben Hutchings, Head of Mortgage Sales Response date: 13th June 2022

Buy for UNI Mortgage Application

The website gave a simple introduction to the product and on contacting Bath Building Society a very speedy initial evaluation of suitability /eligibility was conducted. The application process couldn't have been better. We were quickly in a position to commit to a purchase with an agreement in principle. We faced issues which caused delays along the way to completion but we were able to deal with them with the support of Bath Building Society and conclude the purchase rapidly at the end. We would highly recommend Bath Building Society based on our experience. Reviewed on: 9th June 2022
