Review of the Ecology Building Society, Savings:

Proud to have been one of the first investors in 1981

I was one of the first investors in the Ecology Building Society in 1981, and have been a saver ever since. The Society has grown, but the staff are as ready to engage as they were when I was a Foundation Share Holder. The AGMs are always a highlight with guest speakers and reinforce how much good the Ecology does to improve and finance interesting community and private developments. Reviewed on: 1st October 2024

More banks like this

We need more banks that put planet over profits and working towards a sustainable future. However, the way savings work is a bit weird as it goes to a coop account and then to Ecological one so I that's why I am not giving all stars. Also, the account management website is not the best and no app available. With competitive banks it might not suit young tech savy generation Reviewed on: 15th March 2021

A great ethical building society!

This building society is highly ethical and has a mission to build a greener society. I would recommend it to anyone who would like to save their money in an ethical way. Reviewed on: 15th March 2021

Excellent company

Amazing service

I'm so happy that I've found an ethical and eco-friendly bank which also has brilliant customer service. Reviewed on: 15th March 2021

Ethical, future thinking, great customer care

I've banked with Ecology for over 20 years. They have in mind a way to do finance that doesn't have to cost the environment. They have always provided, excellent, personal customer service, alongside the environment being a consideration at every level of the bank. From the envelopes they use, to the strategy. Money in good hands. Reviewed on: 15th March 2021

A really worthwhile bank

Ecology Building Society ensures that savers' money is used to fund worthwhile, sustainable building projects, creating high quality homes that will have minimum impact on the environment. They set a standard that other banks and building societies should strive to equal. Reviewed on: 15th March 2021

Ecology Building Society not only support sustainable Eco Friendly buildings they also practice what they preach. Their staff are all committed to the same values and they keep their customers informed of new ventures and ideas. They are inspiring. Reviewed on: 14th March 2021

Just excellent and no less!

There's no bad words or criticism that I have for the Ecology Building Society. Its clear that it looks after its staff who in turn look after its members. A simple strategy that works. Reviewed on: 14th March 2021

Used for decades, always excellent

A reliable company building in a responsible way.

The Ecology Building Society has been a good place to have my savings while the interest rates have been so low. I feel it is a safe investment and I am so leased to give someone else the opportunity of building a home in a responsible environmentally friendly way. Reviewed on: 14th March 2021
