Competitive products but below average user experience

Good products, especially the savings rate but the app and website is difficult to use. Reviewed on: 18th September 2024
Reply from Bath Building Society Thank you for your feedback regarding our rates and online systems. Both the mobile app and Bath Online are currently having work carried out on them to improve the process and fix the current issues.

Positive overall. Different to large corporate banks.

Being a building society rather than a bank, things are a bit slower, softer and less obvious. I get worried every time I transfer money in to my account that it is going to the right place. I get worried that when I come to withdraw my money, the organisation won't exist. The savings account is however a great way to prepare for the future, they offer more than the big banks do. It just takes a bit of adjustment. Reviewed on: 18th September 2024

small saver

5
Im not a regular customer, nor a very big saver, but for my purposes, I find the Branch staff very helpful. I like the fact I can still talk to people face to face. It is easy to transfer money. I liked having email alerts if better savings options became available, even if I then did not take it up Reviewed on: 17th September 2024
Reply from Bath Building Society The branch team are always more than happy to help where possible, and will continue to serve as members to the best of their ability. I will pass on the feedback to them. Sam Dorrington, Branches Manager Response date: 18th September 2024

The only Building Society for us.

We have had mortgages with Bath Building Society since 1972. In 1991, we wanted to buy a B&B in Bath, and we approached BBS for a mortgage which was approved by the Manager, who said, ‘You’re not going to let us down, are you?’. We have always found Bath Building Society to be friendly and approachable, never impersonable, their staff always helpful. We use Moorland Road Branch and Wood Street Branch in Bath, and there’s usually a familiar face to help. We couldn’t recommend them highly enough. Reviewed on: 16th September 2024
Reply from Bath Building Society Hi, thank you very much for the kind words. We are proud to have such loyal members such as yourself who still come and see us. We look forward to continuing to serve you however we can. Sam Dorrington, Branches Manager Response date: 18th September 2024
