Basseterre, St. Kitts, December 13th, 2011 - A mother of nine, two senior citizens and a Mason, are the first winners of LIME’s Christmas of a Lifetime Promotion. The first four of twenty-one winners received their prizes in presentations that took the LIME team around the island.
The good tidings started in LIME’s mobile flagship store, where the shy mother of nine accepted her prize of a lifetime of mobile calls. With customers in the background cheering her on, Althea Sage received her certificate entitling her to free mobile service for 40 years.
“With this gift you can make a lifetime of mobile calls without having to worry about paying a bill or topping up your phone. This is one less expense that you will have to worry about in what must be a very busy household,” said LIME’s Corporate Communications Manager, Laverne Caines.
Ms Sage will receive 2500 free minutes to local landline and mobile numbers, 400 texts to LIME mobile and 7GB of data, for 40 years. Words ecaped Ms Sage, who qualified for the draw when she topped up her LIME mobile in November, though she managed to get out a hearty thank you to LIME for this impressive gift.
The LIME officials headed to the East of the island for the second presentation, making a stop in Cayon at the home of Mrs Edith Jarvis. Admitting that she has always been lucky and has won in local promotions before, the retiree was excited when the purpose of the visit was explained to her.
“I always pay my bill on time. I know if I use the service I have to pay, so when my bill becomes payable I pay it promptly,” she remarked after she was told that she was entered into the draw by paying her fixed line bill in full and on time. By the time she understood what she had really won, Mrs Jarvis was ‘over the moon’.
“This is fantastic. LIME will allow me to buy more of my favourite meats every week, since I don’t have to worry about local calls and rental rates for my phone for 40 years,” she said. The presentation of the certificate by Marketing Manager, Darien Belle, validated the prize forcing a tight squeeze by Mrs Jarvis of the LIME representative.
The second senior citizen, Lucy Henderson was also surprised over the visit of the LIME Team. Explaining to her that she had won 40 years of free calls on her fixed line phone, she burst into a fit of laughter. “This is wonderful news to me. Thank God for this blessing. May God bless all of you and your company,” she exclaimed.
Warrington Mills, the sole male recipient in the prize presentation, was cool and collective as he took in the details of his prize. A mason by trade, he too became eligible to win when he paid his bill in full and on time. He explained that most of his children were grown but he was certain that his grandchildren would benefit from this prize.
LIME’s Corporate Communications Manager suggested that he set aside the monies he would save each month towards a fund or some other tangible benefit for his grandchildren. “I will think about it. I will give myself time to allow it to sink in but I am happy for this prize. I am currently unemployed so one less bill means a lot. Thank you LIME.”
In addition to the centre piece lifetime prize, for which weekly winners will be named, the company will also give away prizes of free LIME services to every customer on its network throughout the promotional period. There are seventeen more lifetime prizes to be issued, including which is the winner of the main prize of forty years of Landline, Mobile and Internet services.
Customers who top up, pay their bills in full and on time and purchase products and services during the promotion period qualify to win the lifetime prizes.
