Ecology Building Society Savings reviews (564)

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

Ethics and the environment matter

Great building society that I trust to do the right thing and support positive building projects that will make the world better. Reviewed on: 14th March 2021

Values I share

As all savers I am disappointed that savings produce little return to supplement a pension. but given that is the state of universal affairs I have the consolation of knowing that my meagre pot contributes to supporting ecologically founded lending to those pursuing my values Reviewed on: 14th March 2021

always helpful and a great ethical society

we had a self build mortgage tailored to our individual needs in 2010 and now are regular savers with the society, who are providing a mortgage for our daughter. Ecology are always sensitive to their client's needs and can tailor their products to help. Being ethically sound is a huge bonus. Reviewed on: 14th March 2021

nice to deal with

Easy and helpful to set up new account. Feeling better about banks. Reviewed on: 14th March 2021

Saving in a Pandemic

This is a very good savings product, especially just now with rates falling constantly. Reviewed on: 14th March 2021

Many congratulations from a new 'Green' customer

I am a newly appointed Treasurer for a local branch of the Green Party. Our only bank account is with the EBS and I have found them endlessly patient and helpful in explaining how the account works and what I need to do. They are always quick to respond to phone calls and always give well informed advice. In a word they have been brilliant!. Reviewed on: 14th March 2021

Personal Customer Service

When I first signed up I had a lot of questions and the team were willing to answer them all in a speedy and friendly manner that is hard to find now days! Reviewed on: 14th March 2021

A remarkable organisation!

I joined the Ecology BS and opened two savings accounts more than ten years ago because I supported their principles. I have found they provide excellent service while promoting ecological design and sound investment principles. I follow their progrss with great interest and have attended one of their AGMs. I admire the way they have adapted to the new ways of working during this last year and have continued to offer an excellent service. It must have been tough. I really want them to get this award as they deserve it. We need the Ecology in this time of financial hardship and climate change. Reviewed on: 14th March 2021

Amazing AGMs

I try to attend the Ecolgy AGM whenever possible as the business session is kept to a minimum and the extra events are always fascinating, educational & enjoyable. It's justa great day out. No other building society of which I am a member compares to The Ecology. My savings accounts are efficiently administered and I am kept well informed about changes. Reviewed on: 13th March 2021
