Komerční banka’s G2.2 accounts offer young people and students all they need to manage their finances, and under advantageous terms and conditions. The first 3,000 of the new clients who open a G2.2 account by 31 October 2012 can also receive a CZK 500 bonus.

The G2.2 account includes a current account in CZK with electronic distribution of account statements, an international embossed payment card with travel insurance, and internet, phone or mobile banking. For students aged 15 to 25, account keeping is completely free of charge. Account owners aged 26 to 30 can have free account keeping by actively using the MojeOdměny [MyRewards] scheme. Under this scheme they can also have all withdrawals from KB’s ATMs free of charge (1 payment at a merchant = refund of the fee for 1 withdrawal from a KB’s ATM using their debit card).

A new feature is the opportunity to furnish the certificate of enrolment using an on-line form based on the verification of ISIC card validity. Thus, G2.2 account owners do not have to visit a branch; it is enough when they send their personal details and verify the ISIC card validity at www.g2potvrzeni.cz.

The first 3,000 of the new G2.2 account owners who open this account before 31 October 2012 and meet the conditions of the competition can receive a CZK 500 bonus (the conditions of the competition are available at www.g2.cz). In addition, everybody who throughout a year pays using the card, tops up mobile credit in KB’s ATMs, or remits money using the internet or mobile banking service at least once a month will receive a bonus of CZK 333 every year in September. Another CZK 200 bonus is ready for all those who furnish their valid ISIC card when first opening a G2.2 account.

Students are a very important group of clients for Komerční banka and we therefore continuously seek to improve and extend the services intended for them, and reward them for their activity. We are always aware that young people prefer electronic forms of communication. I therefore believe that they will appreciate the option of on-line account opening arrangements and the easy way of documenting their enrolment,” said Michal Pánek, Manager of Segment Management – Retail at KB.

G2.2 accounts can be opened at any KB branch or applied for on-line at www.kb-online.cz. Those who want this account can also use the services of a video banker, who will help them complete the application.
