Complaints
We aim to provide a high standard of service to all our customers. However, occasionally things can go wrong. When this happens, we want to put matters right as quickly as possible. If you have a complaint about any aspect of the service you have received, please contact us straightaway.
You can view our internal complaints procedure here. This explains how we will try to resolve your complaint and how, if you are still not satisfied, you can ask for it to be investigated impartially by the Financial Ombudsman Service, whose address is: Exchange Tower, London E14 9SR, or you can visit their website www.financial-ombudsman.org.uk.
Central cheque clearing cycle
The central clearing cycle for cheques and automated payments is normally 3 banking days; however, as the Society is not a clearing bank, your cheque will take 7 banking days to clear.
Although you are normally able to withdraw against a cheque paid into your account 7 banking days from the day we have received it, this does not always mean that the cheque has been "cleared". If the cheque is not "cleared", you will have to repay us the amount of the withdrawal.
Financial Services Compensation Scheme
Your eligible deposits with Ecology Building Society are protected up to a total of £85,000 by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme, the UK's deposit guarantee scheme. Any deposits you hold above the limit are unlikely to be covered. Please click here for further information or visit www.fscs.org.uk.
