Bath Building Society Review

3
Bath Building Society is a good society that offer good rates against their building society competitors. They do not offer best buy rates on savings Reviewed on: 8th April 2023
Reply from Bath Building Society Thanks for your review Frank. The reason that we don’t typically appear in best buy tables is simply because we are currently restricting access to most of our accounts. If we did not have such restrictions we would quite often appear in such tables and even when we don’t we always offer better than average rates. If you would like to discuss or rates in more detail then please let me know. Colin McDougall, Chief Commercial Officer. Response date: 10th April 2023

A good reliable and friendly company.

I’ve had ISA savings for a number of years with BBS and have always been happy with the service and the interest rates. I used to do transactions through an agency but that option is no longer available so I now do them over the telephone. I find this quite simple and straightforward and the staff are always so very helpful and friendly. Reviewed on: 7th April 2023
Reply from Bath Building Society Thanks Trevor for your positive feedback and good to hear you are happy with the service, we will pass it on to the team. Jo Gillow, Communications Manager. Response date: 7th April 2023

Difficult to talk to anyone due to poor IT

3
Tried calling at all times of the day and the phone is never answered, finally got through on the chat, also after several attempts. Rachel was very helpful and solved my problem when I did get through. You need to improve your IT and phone calls! Reviewed on: 6th April 2023
Reply from Bath Building Society Thank you for your feedback. Last week we did have a problem with one of our phone lines which also impacted the internet connectivity to the branch where Rachel usually works. During this period we did have to divert calls and webchats elsewhere and this did cause our service levels to drop for a few days. Normally, within working hours, the vast majority of our calls and webchats are answered within 30 seconds which we are quite proud of. Outside of normal working hours we have just launched a Mobile App which you may be interested in and we also developing chat bot functionality that will answer simple enquiries when our staff are not available to assist. I am glad that Rachel was eventually able to help you and hope that next time you need to contact us, it will be more straightforward.
