    Same here, smooth and fast application, as a new customer.
    Also very nice app


    Very impressed by Ecology and by the heads up in this thread 👍

    Ecology RS

    I'm having the same issue; unable to verify me electronically. Which is odd, as I've opened scores of savings accounts this year with electronic verification.

    Ditto. Speed of incoming transfers is like lightning, able to watch the outbound (on PC) whilst seeing the inbound (on Tablet).

    Just one minor gripe, Ecology App isn't compatible with my device ... probably not suitable for Tablets, similar to Tesco Bank and a few of the Building Societies.

    No problem for me either, £200 already showing in their account. First time customer.

    Ecology RS

    Thank you for heads up. No problems with application (web) as a new customer. Will wait until August pension payment comes in early next week before funding.

    Ecology RS

    If anyone is interested in the Ecology RS ... applying sooner rather than later is probably best advice as recent RS accounts at decent rates that have been highlighted in this thread tend to go NLA quickly.

    Easy application here too, in under 5 minutes. I installed the app earlier this afternoon on iPhone, iPad is too old. Funds already showing in my account.

    I opened it in app as an existing customer. Took about 1 minute because all my details are including nominated bank account are already there. Had to close and reopen the app to see the account.

    I have to say I didn't expect 6% RS from Ecology, they've never offered saving products at high interest rates.

    Ecology BS

    New customer. Downloaded app to iphone. Filled in all the data requested. The app asked me to agree to a terms document that was not presented. Failed to match and they will get back to me. First time ever I have failed id check. Ah well, delay will help funds become available.
    I predict staff get in the office tomorrow and find a mountain!

    Just applied as a first time customer on my laptop, process was smooth, took about three minutes and I was instantly able to see my sort code and account number - I didn't even log out of the Ecology website while I set up and paid from my linked account (Lloyds) - when I clicked "go to my dashboard" the money was there instantly.

    Great experience - thanks for the heads up.
