Review of the Bath Building Society, Savings:

EXTREMELY POOR interface for iPhones

EXTREMELY POOR interface for iPhones - basically just does not work. Told us they have known problems but have not fixed them. Trying to open an ISA before the end of the tax year. Told required a 'wet' signature. Printed form out, completed and signed it, photographed it and returned it. Told it was in a pile and may not be actioned until the new tax year. Agreed BBS app doesn't work. Tried Bath Online, which doesn't work on an iPhone 13 Pro Max iOS 18.4. Customer services failed to suggest trying on a laptop. This worked absolutely fine and account opened within a few minutes. Also ABSOLUTELY hate Customer Service staff telling me "No problem". It is a massive problem, which they fail to address for customers. Reviewed on: 28th March 2025

Very helpful, great interest rate especially for the 16-25 regular saver; had one problem when they rebuilt the online banking platform where I couldn't log on to the new website, but everyone with whom I interacted was friendly and sought to help as best as possible. While the new platform was buggy for a while, I could still use in branch services to access my money, and, after a while, my issues were sorted out. If I have one complaint, it is that their chatbot on their website is rubbish, and you need to jump through a few hoops to interact with a real person, and it keeps answering questions which you didn't ask. Overall excellent, though, and have recommended to one of my colleagues! Reviewed on: 10th March 2025

Reply from Bath Building Society Thank you for your detailed feedback! We're pleased to hear that you find our interest rates, especially for the 16-25 regular saver, to be great and that our team has been friendly and helpful.

We will continue to improve this service and your feedback really helps us to achieve this! Chris Burns - Customer Service Officer Response date: 10th March 2025

Missing the City, still with the Building Society.

I invested savings with Bath Building Society while I lived in that lovely city. Staff in the branch and in HQ always combined efficiency with friendliness. Now that I am no longer able to live in Bath I still receive first class service on line, by post or telephone. Reviewed on: 10th March 2025
