Digicel launches weekly 'Spin to win' draw

July 30th 2009 - Digicel launches weekly 'Spin to win' draw

Best answer in the “all I need is my Digicel because…” competition gets the first contestant to play ‘Spin to win’ at the launch.

Digicel, PNG’s Bigger, Better Network has given a lucky winner K2000 who participated in the Spin to win competition as part of the  “All I need is my Digicel” promotion. 

The ‘Spin to win’ contestants were randomly selected and called during the last two weeks. If they answered their Digicel phone with “All I need is my Digicel’ they instantly won a cash prize.  Every contestant was then given the chance to complete the phrase “All I need is my Digicel because….” and the person with the best response was invited to take part in today’s Spin to Win event. 

Today’s contestant was Mr. Alphonse Nicolas, a first year Arts Foundation student at the University of PNG’s Open Campus, Waigani. His response received by Digicel through the NauFM daily calls was rated the best. 

His winning response was: “Call rates are low and Digicel has the bigger, better network to get in touch with everyone!” 

At the Spin to Win event where the player could win up to K50000, Alphonse spun the wheel which stopped at K2,000. Alphonse was given an option to play the 2nd wheel and double his money or lose all but K400 as a consolation prize. Alphonse decided to walk away with the K2000 cold hard cash rather than risk losing his winnings. 

Digicel CEO John Mangos, when congratulating Alphonse on his K2000 win, reminded every Digicel customer to answer with “All I need is my Digicel…” to win instant cash prizes. 

Digicel staff, the media and invited guests witnessed the first contestant to play ‘Spin to win.’ 

(Details of the draw will be televised on EMTV, watch IMT this Friday).

 “All I need is my Digicel” cash call promotion is aired on NAU FM twice daily. In the instance where calls are either incorrectly answered, or not answered with “All I need is my Digicel”, the prize will jackpot. Terms and conditions apply. Visit our website: www.digicelpng.com.
