Competitions, prizes, special offers from BoV at Trade Fair

Bank of Valletta last week announced a series of special offers, and attractive prizes that may be won by visitors to the bank's stands at this year's International Fair of Malta in Naxxar.

BoV will have two stands this year: its main stand and a large gazebo in the area to the right of the main entrance. A Cashlink ATM will also be located at the gazebo.

A main attraction at the BoV stand will be a large perspex box full of colourful piggy banks. This is linked to a fun competition where people are being asked to guess how many piggy banks are in the box.

Each day during the Trade Fair, the two persons who manage to guess the number of piggy banks in the box or come closest to guessing, will be the lucky winners of a brand new DVD player.

A total of 24 DVD players will be given out by BoV during this year's Trade Fair.

The bank will also be offering added value through a series of attractive special offers. Cashlink cardholders upgrading to the BOV Cashlink Visa card, as well as new Cashlink Visa subscribers, will be given a free neck wallet and benefit from reduced card fees.

Customers who take out a BoV Lifelink Policy between next Wednesday and July 30, either from the Trade Fair or from any one of the Bank's branches, with a minimum annual premium of Lm150, or any Single Premium or Investment Bond will be given a free Swatch watch.

Another special offer is linked to the VFM Monthly Investment Plan. A free Swatch will be given to those who take out a monthly investment plan based on the minimum lump sum investment required. This offer is valid until September 30.

Customers will also be eligible to free units if the monthly investment plan is held for a minimum of one year. The number of free units depends on the choice of fund and the amount invested.

These offers are valid until stocks last and full details are available from the BoV stands at the Trade Fair, as well as from the bank's branches in Malta and Gozo.

During the Trade Fair, BoV will be providing information on its products and services, including life assurance, stockbroking, fund management, personal loans, debit and credit cards, Internet and phone banking as well as financial planning services.
