Bath Building Society Savings reviews (2019)

Demoralising Online Capability

I haven't seen them all but I would bet good money that their online registration process is the least intuitive of any UK financial institution. Reviewed on: 9th November 2023

Reply from Bath Building Society Thank you for your feedback. We have experienced some issues with our Mobile App and the new version of Bath Online. We have had hundreds of customers who have successfully registered and it is disappointing to hear that you are still experiencing problems with it. Please do contact us so we can support you through the process. You can talk directly to the team via Live Chat on the website. Colin McDougall, Chief Commercial Officer.

Online Upgrade

It has been a nightmare trying to re-register to maintain Online communication. Your staff are as frustrated as your customers with some obvious errors on the registration site being left - for instance, on the Trust account details, the box headed Signatory/etc should in fact read Trust Name. This has been highlighted internally many times, I hear, yet why has the IT department not instituted a rapid patch? I could not complete my application to re-register even with the help of your staff because my screen only showed 6 boxes and not the seventh (the contact number). So now I have a password set up by your staff member and I cannot find anywhere on the Online pages to change it to something of my own making. What a mess. Reviewed on: 7th November 2023

Reply from Bath Building Society Thank you for your feedback. We did have a temporary issue with our Mobile App and the new version of Bath Online. We have had hundreds of customers who have successfully registered. You are able to change your pin and password, Perhaps you could email us to provide us with more details so that we can help you with this.

Unable to access savings account for 2 months

Since the Bath Online has been updated I have not been able to access my accounts. The girls on the phone have tried to be very helpful, but so far nothing has worked. Frankly whoever wrote the new site needs to try again. I’m trying to keep a track of my finances, but this is making it rather difficult. Reviewed on: 7th November 2023

Reply from Bath Building Society Thank you for your feedback and I'm sorry that you are experiencing issues with logging in. Please do get back in touch as we have had some technical issues which have now been fixed so we may be able to assist you with logging in now.

Feels a bit clunky!

A) mobile app is fine and easy to use. B) I have given up trying to get on the savings website on my laptop. C) you have just sent me the same letter twice, how come? D) you have printed my address in an odd format: Bath after Road; Avon as the county (hasn’t existed since 1996). Which all gives the impression that there are database errors. Reviewed on: 19th October 2023

Reply from Bath Building Society Thank you for your feedback. We are glad you are able to use the mobile app, we are really sorry you are still having issues with out BOL site, we had some issues but this should be now up and running. As for your address we can amend this if you contact us via email we will amend your details, Many thanks, Louise Truckle Head of Savings Support. Response date: 24th October 2023
