Digicel customers win big in Diaspora ‘Grab-a-Gift’ promotion

A total of thirty customers will win big this month in Digicel’s Diaspora top-up competition, Grab-a-Gift, which started on April 1.

Just by receiving top-up from abroad, customers will win great prizes such as cash, smartphones, and home appliances each day.

“I’m really happy that I actually won something in this Digicel promotion,” said an overjoyed Janice Clarke, winner of a brand new Samsung washing machine.

“My dad in New York is always sending me credit, and so it really feels like I got way more than the amount that he usually sends me with this prize. And with my birthday coming up at the end of the month, it’s almost like this is a birthday present that Digicel is giving to me.”

Delta Dickenson, a secretary from St Elizabeth, said her day was made when she heard that she won a brand new stove in the promotion.

“This prize made my day, trust me!” declared an elated Dickenson. “It really brings back some vibes in my body. I was under some pressure and having a hard time with some personal things, and then I got the call saying that I won a brand new stove from Digicel and it just brightened my entire day. That’s why I can’t stop topping up with Digicel and asking my friends and family abroad to top me up too, you know.”

Neil Lawrence, diaspora manager at Digicel, said, “Our customers have told us that when family and friends abroad are able to send something as simple as a top-up to someone home here in Jamaica, it plays a big role in keeping them all connected. They’re able to talk and text for hours, activate data plans and keep up-to-date with each other’s lives no matter the distance.”

Lawrence added: “Since Digicel is always looking for more ways to give back to our customers and add value to their lives, we’re very happy to be able to reward at least one of our customers each day with something wonderful.”

To qualify for any of the daily prizes, customers have to receive a top-up of at least US$5 from abroad. The higher the top-up, the more entries the customer will receive. The promotion will run until April 30.
