Great ethical savings

5
I love knowing what my money is being used for and, even better I can be confident that it is being used to promote sustainable living and definitely not climate change. Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

Superb customer service and ethical banking

5
I have been saving with Ecology for about 20 years. Their service is fantastic and I know that my money is helping to support superb worthwhile sustainable projects. Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

totally trustworthy

5
I have saved with Ecology Building Society for tears, happy to know that my savings are helping to rebuild and revitalise buildings in an ecological way, conscious of re-use and insulation and all things green. Hurrah for this building society giving mortgages and support to those who want to reduce co2 emissions and save our threatened global climate! Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

trouble-free ethical savings

5
I've been an Ecology saver for over 20 years, and introduced my children and grandchildren to Ecology saving accounts too. I get a fair rate of interest, and know my savings are being used to help build the kind of world I believe in; moreover the staff are always friendly and very helpful. Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

Small savings account doing good work

5
I have added modest but regular sums to my Ecology savings account for about 20 years. It's a Foundation Share account and the interest has stayed at a 1 %, a rate that now looks princely for an instant access account. I really like getting updates on projects Ecology has helped financed, especially self build or house conversions which always begin with a commitment to sustainability and finding ways of living and working that don't harm the environment. Staff have always been very helpful when I have phoned with the occasional query. Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

Green bricks and mortar

5
My wife and I have been savers with EBS for over 10 years and have never had any cause for complaint on the standard of service. They seem to be well-run, conscientious, aware of their environmental and social impact and it's good to know that our money is funding high quality, environmentally-sound building projects. Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

Ethical, Sustainable, Democratic

5
EBS has been a leading light in genuinely ethical and sustainable finance for longer than any. It is also genuinely democratic. If more financial institutions had been as far sighted we might be more able to meet the challenge of the climate crisis Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

A brilliant organisation

5
Ecology is a friendly, efficient supportive mutual building society with a great purpose. Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

A high ethical standard

5
I've been impressed with Ecology Building Society's commitment to financing small-scale projects that have a beneficial impact on the environment. We read about them in Ethical consumer magazine and chose to invest some of our savings with them. It's been a really positive experience at a time when there is a dire need for good news. Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

A greener society

5
I have been a member of the Ecology Building Society for about thirty years. I support the aims of the EBS as the only building society to fund ecological projects and promoting sustainable development. Reviewed on: 11th March 2021
