I’m extremely impressed with the service I received from Bath Building Society, and especially from my mortgage advisor, Tim. From the very start, Tim has been incredibly supportive, professional, and reassuring. He guided me through every stage of the process, answered all my questions clearly, and helped me complete the forms with confidence. What could have been a stressful experience felt smooth and straightforward thanks to Tim’s calm, positive attitude and attention to detail. He was always quick to respond and very good at explaining what was important—and what I didn’t need to worry about! That made a huge difference. I’m absolutely delighted that my mortgage offer was produced so quickly, in just five working days. The efficiency and personal service I received exceeded all expectations. I genuinely felt looked after throughout the entire process. Thank you to Tim and everyone at Bath Building Society for making this such a positive experience. Read more Read less

Bath Building Society (Tim and the team) provided exceptional service from start to finish. The team was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely supportive, with a personal touch far superior to anywhere else (we went to other building societies and brokers). The key differences were we weren’t passed from pillar to post, endlessly repeating ourselves to different people filling in forms without context and more importantly treated with respect and listened to. The Retirement Mortgage itself perfectly met our needs too, which is flexible, reliable with longevity, and unlike anything we found elsewhere. It truly feels like a well-kept secret. On top of that, they worked to our timelines, which was a fantastic bonus. Definitely a 5 star service - thank you! Read more Read less
