Greener than Green

Apart from being a helpful and efficient experience dealing with them, the basic ethical principles of the Ecology Building Society should be a standard for everyone! We need to live on this planet in a sustainable way, for generations to come to enjoy. Reviewed on: 19th March 2021

Always stuck to their founding principles.

We have been with them for many years. Attended some interesting AGM's usually at aBorrowers property enabling lenders to see what there savings are used for in a ethical and sustainable way. Reviewed on: 19th March 2021

Very responsive and very helpful

Ecology Building Society lends money on projects to improve or conserve the environment; that's chiefly why I save with them. The customer service over the phone has been excellent whenever I have had any questions and deposits and withdrawals have been handled very efficiently. Highly recommended. Reviewed on: 18th March 2021

Building society changing society for the better

The Ecology promotes and supports ecologically sound building and retro-fitting. Attending their AGM in 2019 was one of the most interesting and informative days of the year for me and I know that my savings are being well used. Informative and good support when it is needed. Reviewed on: 17th March 2021

Really responsible bank

Excellent service provided by real humans and we are sure our money is being used for the public good, not excessive salaries for bankers and fat rake-offs for shareholders Reviewed on: 17th March 2021

Excellent service and ethical use of money

I have been with the Ecology BS since the mid-1980s. I have had several different savings accounts with them during that time. Although my investments are modest, I'm pleased to know they are being put to good use. The Society has always had a small-organisation friendliness and efficiency with any query. They have also kept up with modern developments and management of my accounts by online banking is especially convenient. Vernon Webb, Ludlow Reviewed on: 17th March 2021
