Screams of joy and excitement were the expressions heard when six bMobile customers were contacted and told they were the winners for week one of the Talk for 5 minutes promotion for September.{{more}}

The lucky winners were Khary Jackson, Cammeisha Andrews, Winifred Williams, John Gumbs, Terah Sutherland and Anne Johnson. These customers all spoke for five minutes or more and for that they got three hours of free text messages at nights (9pm to midnight) and EC$300 worth of groceries at Corea’s Mini Mart.

Jackson, who owns an Ital food shop in Biabou, said when he received the voucher: “I have been a customer for over two years and bMobile break I heart when they told I that I won $300 worth of groceries. I feel real special. Big up, bMobile!!!”

Bequia resident Winifred Williams, who manages Moon Home Owners Association, was so happy when she received the telephone call that she called out to her co-workers to spread the good news and even challenged them to buy a bMobile phone if they want the best rates, best promotions and best service.

Gumbs, a carpenter from Ashburton, and Williams, a shopkeeper from Ottley Hall, have been with bMobile for a “while” and feel that this is their luck since they have spent lots of money with bMobile and deserve some reward. Said Williams: “Times real hard, and bMobile has made my day. Three hundred dollars groceries will definitely ease the squeeze in these hard times.”

The vouchers were handed over by Nelicia Thomas, Marketing Assistant and first runner up at Miss SVG 2007. The promotion will see customers win groceries everyday for the month of September, in addition to getting free SMS from 9 p.m. to midnight if they talk for 5 minutes during the day on calls to any number. The promotion will end on September 30th.
