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

Green without greenwash

Money has no value of its self; its value is in what it can do. Unlike saving with some institutions, whose claimed green credentials are dubious, I know that by saving with the Ecology my money is being used to counteract the biggest challenge humanity faces. As an organisation it is transparent, efficient and communicates well. What's not to like? Reviewed on: 7th April 2021

Ethical - excellent service

I have been an ecology member for some years - I have always received excellent service from the really helpful staff. Reviewed on: 7th April 2021

Excellent customer treatment

Always value for money, no rip-offs, great treatment of customers. A joy to have involvement with Ecology Building Society - They care for the environment and all people Reviewed on: 7th April 2021

Always been very happy with them.

I have always been very happy with them. YOu get to talk to real people, who seem to care and be interested. You are not left hanging on a phone line for ages. The society practises what it preaches, has an eco friendly office and supports worthwhile projects to help the environment. The rate of interest is not great but then it is not good anywhere, and at least the money is going towards worth while projects. Reviewed on: 7th April 2021

The Ecology Building Society does what it says on the tin.

I have had and still have several savings accounts with the Ecology and they are unmatched, in my humble opinion, even out-doing Triodos in most measures I find important - interest rates, transparency, activities, customer education etc. Reviewed on: 7th April 2021

Excellent building society

I have saved with the Ecology for a number of years and have only had good experiences, in terms of customer service, transparency of communication, consistently good interest rates, and very well-functioning website. Reviewed on: 7th April 2021

Great

Never had any problems for 30 years I have saved with them. If I have needed to speak to someone it's never been difficult Reviewed on: 7th April 2021

Money well used

You always know that the Ecology Building Society will make use of your money thoughtfully and usefully. Reviewed on: 7th April 2021

Friendly, approachable and ethical.

Ethical but more than that, anytime I've needed to contact they've been friendly and understanding. Reviewed on: 7th April 2021

Good investment

In the current savings environment it is important to me that not only do I receive competitive interest but that I have my savings in a company that has great green credentials. Reviewed on: 7th April 2021
