Mortgage renewal

Great telephone and email service from BBS, all questions answered and helpful staff. Thanks Reviewed on: 5th June 2020

Shocking Support to the Armed Forces

Having banked with BBS for over 20 years (myself, my wife & all 3 children) my wife & I applied for a mortgage. Because i am a serving Army Officer who has served outside the country in the last 3 years (full UK taxpayers), i was told i would not be considered at all. I didn't even have the chance to submit any paperwork - it was an absolute NO from the outset. Shame on you! I would expect far better from a trusted local Building Society. I now have an excellent mortgage with the Coventry Building Society - who we have not banked with before. That must be wrong. Your staff in the Bath branch are superb - but your mortgage policy is outrageous and deeply unpatriotic. We were, and remain, deeply disappointed with the BBS. Reviewed on: 4th June 2020

Reply from Bath Building Society Thank you for your feedback and loyalty to the Society over 20 years. I am sorry that we were unable to help you on this occasion. We regularly review our lending policy as well as our agreement with our credit reference agency, and whilst we don’t currently have the capability to check BFPO addresses to obtain the three year credit history which is part of our lending criteria, it is something that is under consideration. But this in isolation should not get in the way of us providing a personalised service, looking at and fully considering individual circumstances. We will also undertake some additional training with our sales teams, using your case as an example, and I will be stressing the importance of identifying exceptional circumstances when reviewing all applications. Steve Matthews, Head of Mortgages Response date: 5th June 2020
