Good product but time-consuming

The mortgage advisor at Bath (Ian Birch) was excellent and always responded immediately to any questions. I cannot rate him highly enough! Once the application was submitted however, the process became more arduous. For example my husband and I were asked for a signed gift letter, this had already been submitted. We were also asked for statements for an account that we didn’t have - turned out that this was our daughter’s account and the request should have been sent to her. It also wasn’t made clear at the initial application that screen shots would not be acceptable - if this had been stated it would have saved a lot of time. And the whole process took so long that we were requested to provide yet more bank statements as the ones that had been submitted were out of date! It also would have been helpful to be informed via email that our mortgage offer had been made, as with the postal strike it took several days to reach us and the sellers were getting anxious.

Reply from Bath Building Society Thank you for taking the time out and providing this feedback. I will pass on your kind comments to Ian. Please accept my apologies if we asked for information again and the time that it took to get you a mortgage offer. Sometimes it can be out of our hands but we are always looking at ways to speed up and improve our services with our customers. I wish you well for a speedy completion.

Efficient, Helpful and Contactable

We have just completed our re-mortgage to the Bath Building Society. Our first very positive experience was that the mortgage deal we were offered in September '22 was the deal we now have in January '23 - a period when the mortgage market dramatically changed and where mortgage products and offers in principle were being withdrawn. We found the underwriting process efficient and thorough which is, frankly, reassuring. However, the stand out feature for us was the ability to communicate with members of the mortgage admin team, quickly, by telephone or email, who were able to deal with our enquiries there and then and when they couldn't actually got back in contact with us within a few hours with the answer. This has not been our experience with other financial institutions. It's also worth noting how friendly and courteous everyone we have come into contact with has been. Reviewed on: 5th January 2023
