Ecology Building Society Savings reviews (560)

Straightforwardly Ethical

A simple, straightforward, honest, ethical, mutual. If only they were all like this. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

Ethically sound with great customer service

I feel confident and reassured to know that I am saving with an ethically sound organisation that shares my values and supports worthy projects which are moving us towards a greener future. EBS is open and accessible and customer friendly. Its services are well explained and efficiently run. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

A rare find

I’ve been with the bank many years now and have received meticulous service in every way. Their communications are clear and not overly regular. Even though they only have the one branch they outdo their larger counterparts with ease. All this AND their ethical standards are second to none. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

The most ethical bank on the market

Ecology Building Society is rated the most ethical bank in the UK by the Move Your Money campaign. Savings are invested in mortgages for people building eco-friendly homes, so have a directly positive impact on the environment and the housing shortage. Their online banking feature is easy to use, their range of products and savings rates is competitive, and unlike other supposedly ethical banks like Triodos who often invest in polluting companies like petrol lobbyists Toyota, Ecology really do make a positive difference.

A great ethical savings provider

A great ethical savings provider- Excellent ethos and clear information Reviewed on: 15th January 2022

Honest and fair provider with a genuine ethical offering

You know you’re dealing with a genuine sustainable provider. No greenwash I can see exactly how my money is being put to use to support projects that have a positive impact. Reviewed on: 9th January 2022

Ethically sound and great to deal with

I've been an investor with the Ecology Building Society for longer than I can remember - probably 20 years by now. They've always been my go-to savings provider. Yes, the interest rates may not be the highest, but it's a tiny price to pay for knowing that your money is 100% ethically invested - no ifs, no buts. They're great to deal with, too. You always get straight through to a person (not like some providers who subject long-suffering customers to endless queues with stupid music - you know who you are!) and they're infallibly efficient and friendly. What's not to like? Reviewed on: 1st May 2021

25 years saving with the Ecology

The magazine with inspirational eco-homes using passivehaus items imported and reclaimed materials. Reviewed on: 18th April 2021

Fantastic service and ethical

Always efficient and it's ethical. Reviewed on: 18th April 2021

Ethical, efficient, personal

I feel I'm dealing with real people at EBS, whereas other banks seem to be staffed by machines. And they are fruly ethical. That matters. Reviewed on: 16th April 2021
