Review of the Ecology Building Society, Savings:

Ethical, and so Supportive !

I love saving with a building society that does specific, practical things for the environment, and for housing (both so badly needed). Ethical - no investments in bombs or fossil fuels! The people who work for it are lovely! When I ring up to ask questions, I always get patient, friendly help and clear answers. Sure, the interest rate offered is modest - but this is outweighed by the peace of mind Ecology Building Society offers its customers. Reviewed on: 10th November 2024

Good interest rates with excellent customer service.

One of the best

Great ethos and good customer service Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

Excellent

The service is first class and their ethos, essential in a world where we must be more energy self reliant, permeates everything they do. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

I know my savings will support brilliant sustainable and community housing

Ecology Building Society provides an excellent service and I feel confident that my savings will be well managed and support brilliant sustainable and community housing projects that are badly needed. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

Ecology sustains customers with first class service.

When ever I have had to contact Ecology Building Society I have spoken to someone who was immediately helpful. Difficult to think of any improvements. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

Great

Doing your bit without even realising

Saving with the Ecology Building Society helps me set an example to my grandchildren, letting them know I care how finance impacts their future Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

Professional organisation with ethical products

I have been with the EBS since 2021. I was attracted initially by the potential for an ethical savings product at a reasonable rate of return. This I got, but I have also been impressed by the friendly, proactive and professional service I have recieved from the staff and the functionality provided by their online presence. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

What's not to love?

Reliable, ethical and genuine, this organisation is doing far far more than most financial institutions to tackle climate change and social inequality. I wish other banks and building societies were as thoughtful and caring about our potential future. Their service is faultless, throughout the 2 decades I have been saving with them.
