LIME recently unveiled its “Christmas Goodie Bag” campaign that, in addition to offering customers the chance to win cash, attractive gifts, mobile handsets and petrol vouchers, also includes a text-to-win competition offering instant prizes and discounts on practically all of LIME’s products and services.

Among the promotion’s early winners is Desron Chance, who qualified for the draw when he text the word XMAS to 5463. Chance, ecstatic about his win, said: “This is it!! There is no way that I can leave LIME. I won a camera for Summer and now I won a BlackBerry Gemini. I can now be part of the BlackBerry Revolution, and I also look forward to winning the Grand Prize of $50,000. What a Christmas I am having already!!”

Also excited about her winnings was Mahalia Toney of Georgetown, who won US $200 for paying her bill on time and in full. Mahalia said: “This prize was not expected. I pay all the time and this has to be a God send. I relay didn’t expect to see Christmas come so early. Thanks to LIME.”

Country Manager for LIME, Angus Steele, said: “The promotion is off to a great start – but this is just the beginning. For the next five weeks many more people will have the chance to win prizes and cash from LIME in our prize draws and just about everyone who does business with us can claim an instant prize.”

To qualify for the weekly prize draw, customers just have to top up their prepaid phones; pay any LIME bill in full and on time; talk for a total of three minutes in one day; sign up for a new service or upgrade an existing service; sign up for an E account or pay LIME bills by direct debit.

Customers also have the option of texting “XMAS” to LIME (5463) to qualify for the draws and also for a chance to win instant prizes, including DVD and MP3 players, diaries, toys, games and Michael Jackson CDs. Each text costs $1.

Other winners in the first weekly draw were Jacqueline Danzell of Diamond, who text the word XMAS to 5463, and Anelcia Simmons of Villa, who qualified when she topped up.

Prize draws will be held twice weekly until January 6, when the grand draw will take place.
