Review of the Ecology Building Society, Savings:

totally trustworthy

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

Saving with a purpose, amazing people

Ecology BS is an organisation with a great purpose. It offers fair interest rates (even at a time of low rates elsewhere) backed up by great service. They keep in touch, telling members how the money is used. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

Outstanding customer service and products

I have been with the EBS for many years as a saver as it closely aligns with my principles and ethics. Knowing that my money supports sustainable and ecological mortgages and projects, makes me happy to save. Any interactions with the EBS have always been positive. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

Building for the future

Fighting climate change, planning for the future. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

Efficient and ethical

No other bank or building society is doing more to build a fair and sustainable society. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

Amazing sustainable projects

A great society helping so many people with sustainable projects. A small society that packs a punch. Their savings' interest rates are some of the best. A very secure website, which is easy to use. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

Excellent customer service

I have only been a customer for a few months but I have received excellent service so far. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

Great building society thanks

Very happy with Ecology Building Society seems to have worked for me and the best of about 7 savings accounts I have. Thanks Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

Make your money do some good in this world.

Ecology provide a professional service. However, far more important in my view, you can be confident that your money is working to do good at some level. Compare that to most financial institutions that are only interested in making as much for their investors and themselves, irrespective of any concerns about ethics. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

Excellent Savings Accounts

Easy to use online system. Good interest rates. Reviewed on: 12th March 2022

The Original Green Building Society

Long before it was 'trendy' to be green, the Ecology Building Society was working to encourage people to fund ethical projects. I've been with them for almost 40 years and they have consistently offered excellent service with a human face. You could always ring up and talk to a real person without waiting in a queue for an hour and they seem to go the extra mile to make sure that your queries have been satisfied.
