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

Ethical Savings

Good to have an ethical savings account. Also at a higher savings rate than most (less ethical) savings accounts. Great to take part in an ethical organisation Reviewed on: 13th April 2021

I know my savings are being used ethically

I know my savings are being used ethically and giving me a good return. The company is always easy to talk to and transactions happen smoothly Reviewed on: 12th April 2021

Efficient Ethical Building Society

Ecology Building Society keeps me up to date abut their savings' products. I appreciate their snapshots of what properties they have loaned money for. I can always telephone their office and speak to a real person. Reviewed on: 11th April 2021

Amazing ethics and customer service all rolled in to one.

The Ecology Building Society is a safe and smart place to save your money. Not only do you know that your money is being invested in ethical ways but also that you are getting a competitive rate of return. Reviewed on: 10th April 2021

Great to know money is supporting worthwhile projects.

Using the 90-day notice account for funds from early inheritence, to be used for our children in the future. Reassuring to know that community projects can benefit from our savings. Ecology have kept me informed clearly of any developments over the past 12 months. Reviewed on: 10th April 2021

Ethical, professional, reliable

Ethics excellent, communication excellent, and tailored to what we need, eg my daughter can’t spend time on a screen so gets all her communications by post. Reviewed on: 10th April 2021

Good savings rates with excellent ethics

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

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

Great service from an Ethical provider

Ecology is a great small building society. I like the fact that my money is lent out on environmentally friendly projects. Reviewed on: 9th April 2021

The greater green good!

A wonderful organisation that thinks locally and acts globally. We are in climate emergency. Ecology Building Society do whatever it takes to do the right thing with their ethical savings products. Reviewed on: 9th April 2021
