More than 250 youth from the Kotahena area were treated to an evening of song and dance at the Dot Com Youth Get together by the Commercial Bank of Ceylon recently, at the conclusion of a week-long promotion for the Bank’s ‘DotCom’ Youth Savings Account.

The highlight of the evening was a special performance by DotCom brand icons Iraj Weeraratne and Infaaz Noorudeen. After the special performance, the brand icons along with the members of the top management of the Bank handed over special DotCom branded gifts to all DotCom youth account holders.

The promotional campaign was organised by Commercial Bank’s Kotahena branch. Assisted by the awareness created by a special DotCom branded publicity vehicle which roamed the roads of Kotahena, branch staff visited many schools and educational institutions in the area to promote savings and prudent management of personal finances.

Exclusively for those between 10 to 18 years of age, Commercial Bank’s DotCom account offers an interest rate of 6%, one of the best rates in the youth savings accounts category. This account can be opened at any of the bank’s branches or service points with an initial deposit of Rs. 1,000. Account holders receive very attractive Dotcom branded ATM cards and are entitled to low interest personal loans and free access to online banking facilities.
