Ecology Online Banking

Only gave 4 stars because of the Online Banking, which is not the most up-to-date system. (There is not yet an app, but I believe this is in development). Savings: Good value for money, ISAs have good savings rate in line with other providers. Reviewed on: 11th April 2025

ethical, and excellent customer service

I have always had helpful and friendly interactions when i have contacted customer services. It is reassuring o know that my savings are being used ethically. Reviewed on: 1st April 2025

My experience

Staff answer calls promptly, are helpful and friendly - real people! The Society has a policy to ensure the ratio of salaries between staff and CEO/management are fairer than most societies although the ratios are not as good as they were, which is a shame. Reviewed on: 31st March 2025

Ethical Consumer gives the EBS an ethiscore of 100%.

Ethical Consumer gives the EBS an ethiscore of 100%. Where we put our money is one of the most powerful ways we have of changing the world, so that's really important. Reviewed on: 31st March 2025

A small building society with big ambitions

I joined in 2022 and have been impressed with both their value for money and their approach to making the world a better place ever since. Even the AGM was fun! Reviewed on: 4th March 2025

Easy to deal with and an ethical provider.

Easy to deal with and an ethical provider. A happy customer. Reviewed on: 4th March 2025

Excellent Customer Service & Ethical Savings

I have been a saver with Ecology Building Society for a number of years. Their customer service is second to none: they are genuine and friendly and it is ALWAYS possible to speak to a human - no horrible call queues or phone bots. Any time I have had a query it has been quickly resolved. I like the fact that my savings are being put to genuinely green uses by the Society and that any interest my savings may generate is ethical. I thoroughly recommend them without hesitation.

35 years of ethical saving.

I've been saving with Ecology for 35 years and not only are the savings rates competitive, the AGMs and Member Meet-ups are very enjoyable. I particularly enjoy visiting the unusual venues and meeting like minded people who care about where their savings are invested. Reviewed on: 9th February 2025

British Company; British service!

Great customer services; British company; British people on the phone that you can understand; great ethics Reviewed on: 2nd February 2025

Helping to save the planet
