Kuwait, February 15,2011: Gulf Bank is encouraging customers to save more and save longer to earn more chances to win with Al Danah for 2011. Customers are encouraged to open an Al Danah account and to increase their deposits by February 28th, 2011 to be eligible to enter the Al Danah First Quarterly Draw, where one lucky Al Danah customer will win the prize of KD 125,000.

Gulf Bank also announced that it will be awarding its loyal customer base by adding all chances earned by existing customers in 2010 (from 1st Jan 2010 to 31st Dec 2010) to their 2011 chances for all draws. However, customers will need to ensure they qualify for the draw and at no point in time will their balance drop below KD200.
