Combank conducts MoneyGram promotion

Recipients of remittances sent through MoneyGram, the global funds transfer company, will be eligible to win prizes over the next four months, if they collect their funds from the Commercial Bank of Ceylon.

A bank official said that 32-inch LED TVs, home theatre systems, microwave ovens, water filters, mixer grinders, toasters and similar appliances will be awarded through four monthly draws from this month up to December 2013 under 'ComBank MoneyGram Gift Bonanza.'

The promotion comes soon after 114 recipients of Moneygram remittances who collected their funds from Commercial Bank, won Rs 5,000 each under its recent promotion.

Commercial Bank, Assistant General Manager, Operations, Palitha Perera said, "This new promotion will add even greater value, and provide yet another reason for recipients to choose Commercial Bank to collect their funds."

"One Sri Lanka's largest private banks and one of the most-awarded financial institutions in the country, the Commercial Bank of Ceylon has been adjudged the Most Productive Network in South Asia for MoneyGram in 2011 and 2012," a bank spokesman said.

"The Bank offers MoneyGram beneficiaries the convenience of a network of 232 branches and service points in Sri Lanka. Funds can be collected even on holidays, at over 50 holiday banking centres of the Bank. To ensure a speedy pay out, the Bank has set up dedicated counters at some of its locations popular for remittances," he said.
