Review of the Ecology Building Society, Savings:

Ethical in every way

5
We have saved with Ecology for years, knowing that our money will be used for good. Reviewed on: 2nd February 2023

Responsive and responsible savings

5
Very helpful on the phone (which is answered promptly). Addition of online access to the account details is very helpful. I have had a small savings account for years and they have continued to honour what is now a very advantageous interest rate! Reviewed on: 7th April 2021

simply the best

5
Been with them for 15 years I can fault their commitment to fairness and the environment Reviewed on: 7th April 2021

True membership-focused society

5
As well as the administration of the account always being clear and the customer service outstanding, the way the Society keeps members up to date with an informative regular newsletter. Participation in AGMs is encouraged and voting made easy. Reviewed on: 7th April 2021

Good service

5
An ethical building society that meets the needs of its customers and goes the extra mile when others will not. Always get an efficient service and great AGMs pre Covid. Reviewed on: 7th April 2021

Great!

5
As banking is one of the most effective ways of having a positive social and environmental impact, I'm shocked that there are so few ethical banks in Britain, especially considering the current "green wave". Ecology provides excellent service whilst making sure my money is not invested in industries that cause environmental harm. Reviewed on: 7th April 2021

Excellent Society

5
I have been a member of the Ecology Building Society for over 30 years and have always found them easy to deal with, providing excellent service, good communication and fair rates of interest. It's a bonus to be involved with an ethical society and I would recommend them to anyone. Reviewed on: 7th April 2021

Ethical savings

5
Not only do I know my money is being invested ethically, but all communication is transparent and understandable. I felt very supported when I was choosing my saving account, fully informed without being patronised. Reviewed on: 7th April 2021

Saving with a purpose

5
I only have good things to say about Ecology Building Society. They are an organisation that I know I can trust to use my savings to benefit society and the environment. Reviewed on: 7th April 2021

Great!

5
Excellent customer service and range or products! Reviewed on: 7th April 2021

Ethical and ecological behaviour and business has never been so important.

5
A great organisation both in support for best practice and in support for those seeking to progress best practice Reviewed on: 7th April 2021
