Review of the Bath Building Society, Savings:

How a Building Society should be.

I like the customer care, I've found it the best of any B.S. I've had accounts with. The staff make you feel like you're important to them and always do their best to help. Their web site is easy to use and if there is a problem I've always been able to speak to a real person. Please don't change! Reviewed on: 4th June 2020

I am very happy with yourselves

I am very happy with yourselves but I think you should be aware that it is not easy to have documents certified by banks. Some will only certify their own documents and it took me three visits to gain two certifications. Reviewed on: 18th October 2025

Reply from Bath Building Society Thank you for your feedback - we’re really pleased to hear that you’re happy with our service overall. We do understand that document certification can sometimes be a challenge, Your experience highlights an important area for us to consider, and we’ll certainly take this on board as we continue to improve our processes.

Local and convenient!

I opened a Fixed Rate Bond and was served by Jane. I like Bath Building Society because it is local and convenient. I also like the staff who are friendly and helpful. Also, because I have hearing loss on the telephone I am pleased you have a “live chat” on your website which I have found very useful and helpful - in fact invaluable. Reviewed on: 18th October 2025

Reply from Bath Building Society Thank you for your thoughtful feedback. We're delighted to hear that Jane provided excellent service and that our local presence and friendly team made a positive impression. It's especially encouraging to know that our live chat feature has been helpful for you too! Chris Burns – Customer Service Officer Response date: 24th October 2025

Great service

I called head office and spoke to Katie who was very efficient in answering my query. It was refreshing to speak to someone who was confident and knowledgeable in their work. If I could give her 6 stars I would! Reviewed on: 15th October 2025

Reply from Bath Building Society Thank you for your fantastic feedback! We’re delighted to hear that Katie was able to assist you with such confidence and efficiency. Your “6-star” sentiment means a lot to us and I’ll be sure to pass your kind words on to Katie. Chris Burns - Customer Service Officer Response date: 17th October 2025

Nice to visit a local branch

I visited the Oldfield Park branch to open an account for my mother and register myself as the power of attorney. I saw Gemma who made the whole process stress free and straightforward. It was lovely to be able to call into a local branch and do things face to face. Very pleased with the service I received. Reviewed on: 15th October 2025
