Review of the Ecology Building Society, Savings:

Ethical in every way

We have saved with Ecology for years, knowing that our money will be used for good. Reviewed on: 2nd February 2023

Building for the future

Fighting climate change, planning for the future. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

Efficient and ethical

No other bank or building society is doing more to build a fair and sustainable society. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

Amazing sustainable projects

A great society helping so many people with sustainable projects. A small society that packs a punch. Their savings' interest rates are some of the best. A very secure website, which is easy to use. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

Excellent customer service

I have only been a customer for a few months but I have received excellent service so far. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

Great building society thanks

Very happy with Ecology Building Society seems to have worked for me and the best of about 7 savings accounts I have. Thanks Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

Make your money do some good in this world.

Ecology provide a professional service. However, far more important in my view, you can be confident that your money is working to do good at some level. Compare that to most financial institutions that are only interested in making as much for their investors and themselves, irrespective of any concerns about ethics. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

Excellent Savings Accounts

Easy to use online system. Good interest rates. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

The Original Green Building Society

Long before it was 'trendy' to be green, the Ecology Building Society was working to encourage people to fund ethical projects. I've been with them for almost 40 years and they have consistently offered excellent service with a human face. You could always ring up and talk to a real person without waiting in a queue for an hour and they seem to go the extra mile to make sure that your queries have been satisfied. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

Support Climate Change action AND get a decent return!

Easy to set up an account. Moreover, in these hard and worrying times it feels good to have my savings in a safe place that not only gives a better return than a high street bank savings account, but which is committed to making a positive contribution to protecting our ecology. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

Ethical and Friendly

Friendly staff when there was a slight hiccup in opening an account. So pleased to find an ethical building society to save with. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022
