Review of the Ecology Building Society, Savings:

Helping to save the planet

Decent saving rates but helping to save the planet and that’s worth more than anything Reviewed on: 31st January 2025

Best Consistent Impeccable Building Society

Ecology Building Society maintained my interest rates over the last few years when all the others dropped in my other building societies and banks. I cannot recommend or praise them enough their ethics are aligned to mine and they publish a very good magazine outlining where the money goes to specific ecological refurbishment projects like the Isle of Iona, Scotland, Bristol. Keighley. etc. they are so good and should be used more often. Reviewed on: 26th August 2022

Simply the best

We have been with the society from about 1984 most of the time not having very much in our accounts but we were and are always treated with the utmost respect. All of the staff we have dealt with over the years have been so friendly and helpful far far better than other banks, society's we have been with. We wish we could do all of our banking with them. 100% recommended them. Reviewed on: 22nd April 2022

Postal Account where you can sleep at night

Have saved a small sum of money every month with Ecology for over ten years. Brilliant application of sound organisational operation with some ecological principles in mind. Always been well above the bank base rate on savings Reviewed on: 7th April 2022

Awful online presence

Outdated online offering, way to longwinded application process, living in the pst Reviewed on: 4th April 2022

Saving Money Can Help Ecological Projects

It is so good to know that money saved with the Ecology Building Society is lent out to building projects that bring derelict or out of use buildings back into use Reviewed on: 23rd March 2022

Simple and easy

I opened a savings account with Ecology Building Society a couple months ago. It's easy to use, secure. Reviewed on: 20th March 2022

Environment

I like to do my little bit to protect the environment. Ecology Building Society has the correct products for me with competitive interest rates. Staff are efficient, effective and professional. I would have no problem recommending Ecology Building Society to family members and friends. Reviewed on: 20th March 2022

Friendly customer service with a green heart

You rarely have to wait when you call. The staff are always friendly and helpful and I can save money in the knowledge that it is being used to fund green projects around the country Reviewed on: 18th March 2022

A great ethical, ecological building society

A building society that cares about the environment and a better future for our planet! Reviewed on: 17th March 2022

Promoting saving the planet

EBS not only encourage minimising the ongoing environmental impact of using buildings such as by high standards of insulation they also address the environmental impact of the materials used in the construction of buildings. They also provide a friendly and efficient banking service. Reviewed on: 17th March 2022
