Review of the Ecology Building Society, Savings:

Proud to have been one of the first investors in 1981

I was one of the first investors in the Ecology Building Society in 1981, and have been a saver ever since. The Society has grown, but the staff are as ready to engage as they were when I was a Foundation Share Holder. The AGMs are always a highlight with guest speakers and reinforce how much good the Ecology does to improve and finance interesting community and private developments. Reviewed on: 1st October 2024

To be trusted

I like their integrity, and what they provide mortgages for Reviewed on: 16th March 2022

Above all EBS can be trusted

By keeping interest rates reasonable in the good times EBS has protected interest rates in the not so good. Reviewed on: 16th March 2022

Ethically on the spot

I have been with the Ecology for a long time - for ISA investment. But what they do on lending etc is very impressive. And their overall care of customers is second to none. Well worth an award! Reviewed on: 15th March 2022

Ethical and helpful

They helped me out when I lost my job in the pandemic. And they have genuinely rigourous ethics - unlike many banks and building societies who are funding things I'd rather not put my money into. Reviewed on: 15th March 2022

Saving for something better

It’s great to know your savings are doing all the right things, free from fossil fuel investments and weapon manufacturing amongst others. Customer service are always great too and their interest rates are competitive. Ecology makes saving with beneficial impacts easy. Reviewed on: 14th March 2022

The climate crisis is a potential catastrophe

I am so pleased that the EBS is using my savings to support projects that will help save the planet - this sort of ethical banking is a breath of fresh air! Reviewed on: 14th March 2022

Ethical savings

Great society and I have a clear conscience as to where my money is invested so am very happy Reviewed on: 14th March 2022

Ethical and Practical

Exceptionally helpful and easy to contact and deal with over my long history saving with them which includes two house purchases and a translocation overseas Reviewed on: 14th March 2022

Great service

I find the Ecology Building Society to be from polite helpful and efficient in dealing with them. Reviewed on: 14th March 2022

Great efficient service

Easy to deal with - great online access - genuine provider of ethical savings accounts. Reviewed on: 14th March 2022
