Bank customer wins Kia

While most of us were dodging raindrops to run into the bank to get a little cash for the Valentine’s weekend, one woman found herself running to the bank to collect a new car. Today Mercedes Carillo won a brand new 1998, Kia Pop hatchback courtesy of the Atlantic Bank. As part of its marketing and promotional efforts for 1998 leading up to Valentine’s Day celebration, the bank issued raffle tickets to new and existing customers in appreciation for doing business with the bank. News Five was at the Freetown Branch this morning when Carillo came rushing out of a taxi to get the keys to her new car.

“Well actually I went to Augusto Quan to buy something for the office right? And the same time they had on the radio listening into the Atlantic Bank Raffle and then I heard them say Mercedes Carillo of 38 Hyde’s Lane. And, then I said, “That’s me,” and I could barely identify myself. The girl said, “Yes” and I double check and I ask her did they say Mercedes Carillo and she said, “yes they said Mercedes Carillo.” I run out of the place, you know.

I feel so happy because I no even win Boledo. I feel happy about this. This is the first time I ever win something like this. So, I don’t know I just feel the joy and I was planning to buy a vehicle too so, this vehicle come in very handy.”

Marketing Manager of Atlantic Bank Dionne Chamberlain told News Five that Atlantic Bank will be offering bigger and better promotions for the remainder of this year.
