Ecology Building Society Savings reviews (571)

GREAT TO SAVE WITH ECOLOGY BUILDING SOCIETY

Have invested in Ecology BS for decades. Savings offerings now so restricted that even our long history not enough to persuade it to take our money recently. Rates of return still competitive and great to invest in innovative sustainable projects and support business and families. Reviewed on: 12th March 2021

Completely reliable and truly ethical

It is such a refreshing change to deal with a company which is wholly focused on providing a sound, ethical service. No hard sell, no gimmicks, just clear information, a great service, consideration for loyal customers, and even decent rates for savings in this low interest context. Reviewed on: 12th March 2021

Excellent and ethical

I have always experienced excellent customer service and they regularly keep me informed of how my money is invested Reviewed on: 12th March 2021

Consistently excellent customer service

As a Foundation Shareholder, I've been saving with Ecology for forty years, mainly through its ISAs. It's important for me to know that my money is being used to support the highest ethical principles and that's why I save with Ecology Reviewed on: 12th March 2021

The Best

I am always on the lookout for ways of saving ethically and when I came across the Ecology BS I was so excited. It is a gem. Judith Reviewed on: 12th March 2021

good service

friendly staff and helpful staff Reviewed on: 12th March 2021

Effortless ethical banking at last!

I opened a savings account with Ecology two years ago and the process was clear and smooth and I am so grateful to have more ethical choices in the marketplace. Where we choose to put our money is hugely important for the future of all our children and I would highly recommend Ecology Building Society. Reviewed on: 12th March 2021

Breath of fresh air in the banking sector

You can see that Ecology Building Society really live their values. Unfortunately with many so-called "green" products and services, scratch the surface and it's just greenwashing and an excuse to try and boost sales. With Ecology, that's not the case - they go out of their way to think about the impact of everything they do. They are an important beacon to the rest of the industry. Reviewed on: 12th March 2021

Exelent friendly and efficient service

I have used the ecology building society over the last 30+ years and found them to be consitently helpfull, and quick and very capable of providing an exelent service Reviewed on: 12th March 2021

The EBS is fantastic

I have been a member of the EBS for over 30 years they are the pioneers in ethical banking and lending for a range of small community, self-build and rural businesses that would otherwise have no access to ethical ways to save, or get loans or mortgages. They deserve some recognition for this outstanding service they have provided for decades. Reviewed on: 12th March 2021
