Not great legal work

3
Relatively slow process and high (unnecessary?) fees. Not impressed by the solicitor handling the case for BBS. Although I recognise they are acting for BBS and not on my behalf they were fairly uncommunicative, incorrectly quoted fees for work, slow to update information (e.g. completion statements were out of data and therefore inaccurate) , incorrect statements, left requests for vital (and large) fees until less than 1 hour before completion deadline. Charging £35 for completing the process online instead of by post? in the 21st century???? Some kind of joke? Reviewed on: 3rd April 2023
Reply from Bath Building Society Thank you for taking the time out and leaving this feedback. It might be worth taking this up with the Solicitors acting as it seems there has been various issues here as you have highlighted. We don't recommend Solicitors here at the Society but all firms must meet certain criteria in order to act for us. I can be contacted on [email protected] should you want a chat about it.

Reply from Bath Building Society Thank you for taking the time out and providing this feedback. We don't have a solicitors panel here at the Society, just criteria solicitors must be able to meet in order to transact with us. If the service they have provided isn't up to your expectations you can contact them directly and hope you are able to sort something out with them.
