great to have an easily accessible ethical bank

Easy to navigate site, competitive interest rates and good communication Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

The best place to invest ethically for a sustainable future.

You can always trust the Ecology Building Society to consistently support the community and the planet and it has good interest rates too! Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

Ethical, Solid & Safe

I love to rest assured that my savings are in safe hands and are being used to fund other customers’ ethical borrowing. It’s also great to see that the Organisation doesn’t waste money , for example on expensive advertising campaigns Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

Fantastic

Have been saving with them for a few years now. Great communication and service and wonderful ethics. Feels so good to know our savings are supporting good green projects. Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

Friendly, caring and ethical on every level.

As a member of many years, I have always found the Ecology to be brilliant. The members of staff deal with every issue with professional caring and friendly concern. The society embodies its principles, ensuring the carbon footprint of the building, their transactions and investments are as small as possible. They keep in contact with their members with informative newsletters and fascinating talks at their AGMs, which inevitably offer inspiration. Belonging to them, feels like being more than a number on a spreadsheet. They make you feel like a person, who is part of something very special. I have complete trust in their integrity and 'green credentials', as they have been there since the beginning and the whole society is founded on the very best ethical principles. Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

Super friendly helpful Bank!

I recently opened a savings account with Ecology Building Society and They have provided a fantastic, friendly service thus far, Thankyou! Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

Ethical, ecologically sound and genuinely friendly

We've had savings accounts with Ecology for more than 30 years (and a mortgage for 17 of them). The accounts offer good rates and are straightforward; EBS staff are friendly, understanding, always helpful and available. I am happy to know that EBS own operations and their lending policies mean that our money is helping make our world a better place and never funding its destruction. Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

Personal service

When I was abroad on holiday my house was burgled. I did not know if the thieves had stolen my pass book or not. The staff put all my accounts on hold till I got back and was able to check. Great for peace of mind. The staff at The Ecology are able to be flexible and appropriate to the needs of their customers. Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

I like to see how my savings are being used to good effect

The way that the Society keeps members informed of how funds are being used successfully in the context of the Society's aims is excellent. Communications generally are of a very high standard. The Society lives up to its name in putting ecology at the forefront of the way it lends funds. Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

Highly recommended

Reliable, efficient, trustworthy, helpful - an excellent organisation, Also providing an important service. Reviewed on: 11th March 2021
