Ecology Building Society Omdömen 

This company is a true representation of how businesses should endeavour to help people to look after the planet. They offered me a mortgage, despite my age, to helped with the purchase of land for planting trees. Such faith in the restoration of the English countryside for the next generation. Priceless!

Ecology Building Society makes things easy to understand in plain English and are easy to talk to and very helpful. I love their Ecological perspective.

Very understanding staff who treated me as an individual and listened and supported me through everything I needed.
Excellent service.

Ecology Building Society are excellent. They are always courteous and very helpful over the phone and making deposits and withdrawals is very straightforward. Their ethical standards and support of ecologically resourced housing are excellent.

I was looking for an ethical bank that is transparent about where it invests my money and only invests it into companies and/or projects that are good for the planet and communities, and Ecology came out top. The process of joining was smooth and all done digitally/via photos of paper documents. There are a good range of savings accounts to choose from and although the interest rates aren't market-leading, they aren't bottom of the market either and for me it was more important to be certain that my money is being ethically invested. Transfers are pretty quick and all information is very clearly (if sometimes repetitively) given. Looking at the monthly newsletters, it's clear that they live up to their reputation for ethical, eco-friendly investments, and they really put their money where their mouth is with things like better mortgage deals if you're looking for a more energy efficient home or looking to do an eco retrofit. The only criticism I have is I would really like them to be a bigger company with high street branches, debit cards and an app, so that I could move all of my banking over to them.

1) the ease of managing my accounts online and
2) the very positive attitude of staff when dealing with members
3) good interst rates and
4) becoming a part of an ethical organisation that contributes to the greater good makes the society
a absolute winner

Very good customer service, straight responsible ethical company I believe in good fair and real communication updates happy with my 7 years with it all.

Great service, great products, great ambitions and great ethics. What’s not to like?!

Avoid this Company at all costs. They string you along for months, take ages to reply, then ask for the same paperwork over and over and finally say you've been timed out and you will have to reapply and pay and do it all over again.....

I have had a savings account with Ecology Building Society for 3 years now. I saw it recommended in the Ethical Consumer magazine which impressed me enough. My brother also recommended them as he has used them a few times over the years, he has his mortgage with them. I have been really pleased so far, absolutely no regrets, a really good decision to join.

I approached Ecology Building society nine years ago for a mortgage to build a Straw bale house and have been with them ever since moving my savings over as well. I love the fact they support people like me to build their dreams in a green and natural way.

I've been saving With Ecology Building Society for 40 years. I really like that they were 'green' before it was trendy & they haven't watered down their values. It's great to talk to a real human being on the phone if I need to & the staff have always been friendly & efficient.

Very happy to know my savings are being used for ethical purposes.

Exceptional values and ethos. Great savings rate for Cash ISA. Good customer service. Website needs improving but that sounds like it is on its way. Highly recommend to all.

I’ve saved with the Ecology for over 40 years. I like the ethics, and the staff are always helpful.

I have used the savings facilities of the ecological Building Society for 20 years plus and I have always found them very helpful.

No problems: straightforward online access, decent interest rates

I'm happy to have some of my savings with the Ecology Building Society, knowing that they are contributing to the construction of homes that are not only ecological but beautiful.

Having had savings accounts and ISAs with Ecology for nearly 40 years, I can confirm their reliability. I have no experience of what they are like as a mortgage lender, but, due to their ethical policies, my savings with them did not suffer AT ALL in the 2008 financial crash.

Competitive rates of interest and comforting to know that our money is being used for good causes.
