Kuwait " 13 September, 2009: Gulf Bank has announced the launch of its "Double Your Interest" campaign that offers customers the highest interest rates for E-savings accounts in Kuwait. The offer is open to new and existing customers of Gulf Bank.

Upon opening an E-savings account during the promotional period customers will receive double the interest. E-savings already offers the highest interest rate as compared to any savings account and at the same time customers will also earn double the interest during the promotional period. The interest rate paid on an E-savings account is higher than what is currently being paid on fixed deposits by any bank in Kuwait.

The promotion is available for both Kuwaiti and non-Kuwaiti residents. Customers can deposit KD250 to open the E-savings account and will also receive a free ATM card.

E-Savings is a savings account and therefore customers have the flexibility of withdrawing at anytime. Unlimited withdrawals are allowed however, if any withdrawal is made, no interest is paid in that calendar month.

E-savings comes with additional benefits, such as; easy accessibility to accounts through online banking, the Bank's largest ATM network, free mobile banking for the first year, Tele-banking services and the option of making payments or withdrawals at anytime.
