Review of the Ecology Building Society, Savings:

Ethical, and so Supportive !

5
I love saving with a building society that does specific, practical things for the environment, and for housing (both so badly needed). Ethical - no investments in bombs or fossil fuels! The people who work for it are lovely! When I ring up to ask questions, I always get patient, friendly help and clear answers. Sure, the interest rate offered is modest - but this is outweighed by the peace of mind Ecology Building Society offers its customers. Reviewed on: 10th November 2024

A really worthwhile bank

5
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

5
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!

5
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

A reliable company building in a responsible way.

5
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

5
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

5
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

5
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
