OREANDA-NEWS. November 26, 2009. The Become A Millionaire programme, whose chief prize is Hrivnia 1,000,000, will run at VAB Bank till 15 February 2010, reported the press-centre of VAB Bank.

Apart from the principal award, each participant will be offered a special bonus: a guaranteed mark-up between 0.1% and 15% on top of the standard deposit rate (until the nearest deposit renewal).

To participate in the playout of the programme’s chief award – UAH 1 million – takes the opening of a Fixed Term Deposit or a Cumulative Deposit for three months or more and for the amount of at least UAH 1,000 (US 200 or EUR 200) between 16 November 2009 and 15 February 2010.

The guaranteed special bonus – interest mark-up – will be offered to those who subscribe for a Fixed Term Deposit or a Cumulative Deposit of at least UAH 1,000 (US 200 or EUR 200) for at least one month during the programme period.  The size of a bonus mark-up will appear on a scratch card pulled out by a depositor at the time of subscription for a special deposit at any of our Bank’s offices.

VAB Bank’s deputy chairman for retail business Mr  Tsvetan Petrinin commented, “In promoting customer loyalty to the Bank we continue to introduce varied programmes that always assume some form of a reward for winners.  Our awardees have been on sea cruises and tours and won home appliances such as TVs, photo cameras, home cinemas etc.  The top award of our previous campaign, Tough Car with a Deposit, was a Hummer H3 won by a businesswoman from Cherkassy this September.  The winner of the Become A Millionaire programme will receive Hrivnia 1,000,000, which will be at their absolute disposal.  Another feature of this programme is the possibility to improve chances to receive the million by getting extra scores awarded depending on the term of the deposit: the more scores, the better chance to win.  For example, 3 scores are assigned to 3 month deposits, 6 scores to 6 month deposits, and so on.”

The winner of the top award will be selected by way of random computer sampling of programme participants database in front of a special commission.  The award ceremony will be dated to the 18th anniversary of VAB Bank anticipated in July 2010.
