Great organisation, worth supporting

4
Ecology Building Society would never claim to offer the most competitive rates, but you can be sure your savings are safe as environmentally-friendly houses, and they are being well used to fund innovative sustainable building projects across the UK. Ecology is a great organisation, and I have peace of mind knowing they aren't up to anything dodgy, unlike many other banks. Reviewed on: 7th April 2021

Save well

It's a great feeling to know that one's savings are being used as part of the solution, rather than as part of the problem. Reviewed on: 7th April 2021

An excellent provider!

I have had savings with the Ecology for many years now. Not only do they provide excellent customer service, the business is rooted in what is needed by customers and non-customers alike; the planet as a whole benefits from the way that The Ecology conduct business. In my opinion and experience, they are a shining example of what is possible and achievable. Reviewed on: 7th April 2021

Changing the worl one pound at a time

5
We have been with the Ecology Building Society for nearly two decades as it offer very personal and tailored advice and support on savings and mortgages that do not cost the earth. The way forward for sustainable development is with small and medium-sized companies, including bank that care about customers and the environment. Reviewed on: 31st March 2021

Reliable, accountable approachable and green

5
I have had an ISA with the Ecology Building Society for many years and I would recommend them because I feel they are doing honest things with my money. Their values accord with mine and the newsletter and conference (I have been once) create inspiration and transparency. They are not too big that it feels corporate and they are trustworthy. Reviewed on: 28th March 2021
