Review of the Ecology Building Society, Savings:

Why would you *not* save with EBS?

5
Why would you not save with EBS? Good rates, savings in positive projects, friendly responsive costumer service. Reviewed on: 1st October 2024

Good savings rates with excellent ethics

5
After spending quite a bit of time reviewing available ethical savings accounts, the Ecology Building Society regular saver account came out with one of the best rates whilst meeting all the ethical criteria i was concerned about. It also seemed a good longer term option as it wasn't just an introductory rate that would drop to near-zero after 12 months like certain competitor's offerings! Reviewed on: 10th April 2021

Supports my principles

5
Great ethical organisation with which to save. Knowing my money is invested in projects, such as housing, that make a difference and are important to me. Reviewed on: 9th April 2021

Excellent ethical company

5
We have invested with the Ecology Building Society for decades particularly because of their ethical and sustainable work. We need more banking companies with this ethos. Reviewed on: 9th April 2021

They are the most ethical financial provider, end of

5
Pretty much all the big banks (like Barclays, HSBC and others) are up their necks in investing in harm , ecocide and human rights abuses - with Ecology Building Society you can look yourself in the mirror knowing that your money isn't harming your kids' future, or anyone else's Reviewed on: 9th April 2021

Honours its pledges

5
It is pleasing to see that the Ecology Building Society honours its pledges in that, at a time of ultra-low interest rates, it guarantees a minimum interest rate of 1% per annum to its loyal members. Reviewed on: 9th April 2021

The original 'green' building society

5
I've been saving with the Ecology Building Society for almost 40 years and have always appreciated the friendly, personal help from staff (no endless automatic labyrinth.) and peace of mind in knowing that my money is being invested in positive projects that don't contradict my principles.
