I took a bat spawn egg form inventory. Then i Placed it inside a spawner. Even after several minutes of waiting, it did not spawn bats at all.

Was the light level around the spawner four (night) or less?
Confirmed on Samsung Galaxy S4 Android 5.0.1 running MCPE 0.11.0 build 10
I tested it in creative mode, max difficulty, zero light level and could not spawn bats. The spawner was located on the ground in a room that was 7x7x4 (i.e. the spawner was in the center with 3 blocks space in all directions.
I can just see a little bat spinning inside the spawner when I placed the egg in there, but none spawn. I played with the light level and with recreating the spawner with different starting light levels. Still no luck.
I replaced the spawner with a skeleton spawner and it worked fine.
Thank you for the clarification, Russell. Were you below layer 63?
Doh. No I was not. I created a new creative world and dug down maybe 10-15 blocks. I'll test again shortly.
Yes, bat spawners work below level 63. I created a new creative world, found a cave that took me down at least past level 63 and created a bat spawner which worked just fine.
