BOQ Cronulla Customer Wins $20,000* Cash in “Save to Win Account” Draw

Tuesday, 25/10/2011

A customer from BOQ Cronulla has won the major $20,000* prize in this month’s draw of BOQ’s Save to Win Account™ Promotion. The winner is the tenth since the new account launched in December last year. 

The winner, Mr E Salmon, opened the account at the BOQ Cronulla branch in March this year.

To date Save to Win Account™ major prize winners nationally have used their winnings to help fund a variety of personal plans including travel, reconnecting with family overseas, a deposit on their first home and investing for the future.

BOQ Cronulla Branch Manager Wayne Metters said all of the branch staff were thrilled to have the major prize winner come from their branch. 

“This customer is the first major prize winner from NSW since the product launched and we are thrilled that he’s from our branch! 

“We hope the good luck rubs off and we get more major prize winners from around here,” Wayne said.  

The Save to Win Account™ is Australia's most exciting bank account and it's only available at BOQ.

This innovative new product offers customers the chance to win monthly cash prizes^. 

“No other bank in Australia offers anything like it, so we’re proud to be able to bring it to you first,” Wayne said. 

“Our customers can win a share of at least $30,000 worth of cash prizes every month, including one major $20,000* prize.”

 “To open a Save to Win AccountTM, you can drop into any BOQ branch or apply online at www.boq.com.au/

“A lot of our customers are friends of ours so it adds an extra level of excitement to the prize draw.  For us, it’s personal and we really want to put a smile on someone’s face,” he said.
