Proud winner Oakland University student Bethany Jackson and Credit Union ONE Oakland University Branch Manager Sonya Steward |
During this time, students had the opportunity to visit with Credit Union ONE branch staff and take advantage of the opportunities to be entered to win all sorts of cool prizes, such as food/gas cards, Oakland University bookstore certificates, apparel items, and even an Apple iPad!
Students entered the prize drawings by “liking” us on Facebook, opening a checking account with the SpiritCardPLUS feature, or sending in a postcard entry. Students entering the drawing received water bottles, candy and other small items, along with the chance of winning one of the other prizes.
Students overwhelmingly loved this promotion as over 150 new checking accounts were opened during Welcome Week. In addition, over 750 Oakland University students have given Credit Union ONE the “thumbs-up” to date by choosing to “like” us on Facebook, over 300 of which were gained during this three week period.
The lucky winner of the Apple iPad was student Bethany Jackson who was totally shocked and very happy to have been chosen as the winner..
