Is this when running a lot of water off?

If so then aren't you just emptying whatever store of cold water you have, and defeating its ability to refill quickly?
 
hi Softus thanks for replying
up untill a couple of days ago there would be enough to fill the bath but now there isnt and it has not been used through the day as i have diliberatly left it to see if the tank would fill up
 
When the water goes I would nip into the loft and see what level it's at. It could be that it isn't fully filling or fully emptying. On the other hand there might be a partial blockage.

Have a look in the loft to start eliminating possibilities.
