Review of the Ecology Building Society, Savings:

The obvious choice

The week that the Ecology Building Society opened, I visited Companies House in London to verify their credentials and have had an account with them ever since. They provide a unique service, in that their are so few ethical financial establishments in which to invest which don't invest in arms or contribute inadvertently to the manufacture of nuclear weapons, by investing in the nuclear industry. The EBS are the only choice for many who wish to buy or improve properties which would simply not be considered by other building societies. Reviewed on: 12th March 2021

Excellent company

I've been saving with Ecology for many years. They impress me with their dedication to being actively environmentally-friendly as well as providing an outstanding customer service. Reviewed on: 15th March 2021

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

Wonderful personal service

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

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
