Excellent service, good interest rates for ethical savers Reviewed on: 12th March 2021

Always excellent service - and ethical

I have used the Ecology Building Society for my savings for many years. Their service is personal and excellent. Their newsletter gives me reassuring information about how my money is being used to build/restore sustainably. I've learnt a lot from this too. Reviewed on: 12th March 2021

Ethical enviromental and social poliices - and helpful, courteous and efficient

..I checked out all ethical providers when I first started saving and have found Ecology Building Society consistently the best. Also favourable rates compared to other providers Reviewed on: 12th March 2021

great company

impressed with eco values when attending AGMs over various years. Reviewed on: 12th March 2021

Consistently good savings rates and great customer service.

My regular saving account is both market competitive and flexible. I have changed deposit amounts a couple of times and on both occasions the customer service has been fast, courteous and accurate. Reviewed on: 12th March 2021

Trustworthy

I know my money is put to good use Reviewed on: 12th March 2021

Great customer service, no complaints

I switched to Ecology Building Society 6 months ago because I wanted my savings to be used in a climate-friendly way. The switch was easy, there were no problems and I can still use Online Banking to manage my money. I wish I'd switched earlier. Reviewed on: 12th March 2021

Ethical investment

I wanted to invest ethically and liked this company and the range of products available. I found them helpful and easy to deal with Reviewed on: 12th March 2021

Easy to use and ethical

Had a great experience after being with Ecology for a year. Good communication about their policies and easy to use. Reviewed on: 12th March 2021

People orientated

My mother (who had also previously held an Ecology ISA) and I had a joint savings account. She sadly died in the middle of last year. When I phoned to notify them and get the savings transferred to an account in my name they dealt really sympathetically and quickly to resolve the situation. They phoned me back promptly and suggested a more preferential savings account than the one I had identified. This was actually a closed account type but as a long-time customer they identified that I could access the higher rate it gave. Without that advice I would just have transferred the savings into one of the lower interest accounts available. Reviewed on: 12th March 2021
