Branch Testimonial

[1] Balance Build Offer: In order to qualify for a one-time Balance Build Offer cash credit, you must deposit a minimum total deposit of $5,000 of “new money” into your Checking account. (“New money” is defined as deposits not previously held by Columbia Bank.) We will allow fifteen (15) calendar days to complete the “new money” deposit funding process. After the deposit funding process period expires, the deposit(s) must be maintained in your Checking account for an additional one hundred and twenty day (120) period. This is referred to as the balance seasoning period. Once the one-hundred-and twenty-day (120) balance seasoning period expires, Columbia Bank will verify that the qualifications of the Balance Build Offer were met and deposit the applicable cash credit into your Checking account within thirty (30) calendar days. Qualifying accounts will receive a cash credit of $150. For “new money deposits” totaling $25,000 and above, Qualifying accounts will receive a cash credit of $400. The promotional bonus is limited to one (1) per account and one (1) per customer. Joint accounts will receive a single bonus only, and all owners must meet the new-to-bank eligibility requirements. Accounts held in trust or accounts with multiple owners (including trustees and beneficiaries) are eligible for only one (1) bonus, regardless of the number of individuals associated with the account or their ownership roles. The maximum Balance Build Offer cash credit is $400. You are not eligible for additional Balance Build Offers even if you open additional accounts and/or make additional “new money” deposits. This is a limited time offer and may be discontinued at any time without prior notice. To receive the aforementioned Balance Build Offer, the Checking account must still be open at the time we are ready to credit the funds. The Balance Build Offer cash credit will be reported as interest to the IRS on form 1099-INT.

[2] $300 New Account Cash Bonus. In order to be eligible to obtain the cash bonus, you must open an Advantage Plus Checking account at either our Clifton or Rutherford Locations. You will receive a one-time new account $300 cash credit to your Checking Account after we have verified ACH credits totaling at least $2,000 posted to your Checking Account within 60 days after the date you opened the new account. Internal transfers are not considered an ACH transaction. The $300 will be credited to your account within 60 days after we have determined that you satisfied this requirement. Only one new account $300 credit will be made in total for ACH credit activity to this account. Total $300 per person: If you have ever received a new account opening bonus of any type in connection with opening a checking or savings account, you are not eligible for the cash bonus even if you open a new Checking Account. You are permitted to receive only one of these new account bonuses irrespective of the number or type of checking accounts you open. To receive any of the aforementioned new account bonus, the account must still be open at the time we are ready to credit the funds. The new account cash bonus will be reported as interest to the IRS on form 1099-INT. This is a limited time offer and may be discontinued at any time without prior notice.

[3] Advantage Rewards Pricing offers tiered rate enhancements on Yield Money Market, Money Market, Statement Savings, and Passbook Savings accounts based on the balance in your Advantage Plus checking account(s). When interest is calculated, your prior rolling 30-day average combined balance will be used to determine what benefit you will receive. For full terms and conditions, please review the Advantage Rewards Pricing Disclosure. Advantage Certificates of Deposit (CD) are available to consumers (natural persons) with an open Columbia Bank Advantage Plus Checking account. The Advantage CD may only be opened in person at Columbia Bank branch locations. This is a limited time offer and may be discontinued at any time without prior notice.
