Ecology Building Society Savings reviews (583)

Always helpful

I have been a member of the Ecology almost since it started in the early 1980s and I'm never disappointed with the quality of the service that I get, all irrespective of the fact that the society does so much good for the world. Positive, friendly and efficient customer service with the full knowledge that your investment is being used to make the world a better place. What more could you want from your savings? Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

Proper good people

I've saved with ecology for years. All dealings have been friendly professional and made simple by staff. Phone and speak to a proper person. Save and know your money is used ethically. Brilliant. Love to get the magazine too and learn about their lending. Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

First Class Service and Values

I've been a member of the society for many years and I am impressed how they treat each member as an individual, not just a statistic. They share my own values, support social projects with lending and grants, and are a great home for ethical investments. Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

Great to be with an ethical financial institution

There is very little you can do with your money that doesn't cause harm to the planet or to people, so it's great to be with the Ecology Building Society. They are purpose led, not profit led. We need more like them! Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

Savings at Work

Ecology provide regular vibrant news and updates on how my savings are working in the community according to their values that I also share. Planting a tree may be a good marketing line for some banks but actually making a sustainable difference to how we house our communities is better. Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

Promoting sustainable housing for future generations

The Ecology Buiding Society is unique in providing a fair and competitive interest rate for its savers whilst offering mortgages to those committed to investing and protecting sustainable housing for future generations Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

What a team!

We have loved Ecology for their wonderful team, helpful and kind manner, and their responsiveness - not to mention their ethos and mission! Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

Ethical, climate-friendly bank with great customer service.

I feel part of a special community by saving with this institution, which I've supported for 30 years. No complaints, great service, reasoable interest rates and the satisfaction of knowing that you are making a difference in a small way. Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

Very happy customer

I have been with the Ecology for about 35 years originally as a treasurer and then as an individual saver. It is a unique organisation which does a wonderful job and they have never compromised their principles. Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

Fantastic service

Genuine people who give a service that treats me as a person, not just an account number. Human intelligence not artificial intelligence! Reviewed on: 11th March 2021
