I have been doing m, unfortunately I have never won any prize from Africell but that did not discourage me from continuing to recharge my phone. But it actually came as a surprise to me. This is my first time owning a brand new car.” he said.
He sighted that he was over excited and called on Africell subscribers especially, colleagues drivers to continue to recharge their SIM cards, and to those who misplaced or lost their SIM cards to quickly rush and replace theirs to stand a chance of winning the different prizes Africell is giving out.
Giving the background of the first one month of the mega promotion, Marketing and Communications Manager, John Konteh said they shifted the gear a little beat to another speed which started on Tuesday 5th September, they had 10 winners of NLe 250 for every day and all the 10 winners are automatically qualified for the grand draw which happen after month for the second time. He noted that the draw continues on every Saturday to announce a motor bike winner and already he added, they have 5 motorbikes winners at the moment across the country, from Bo, Kenema, Makeni and in Freetown.
He revealed that in Freetown, they have 2 motor bike winners and that this is the gear and this is a switch to make sure that every day they announce 10 winners of NLe 250 each. And one of them will qualify for a grand draw every month to own a brand new car.
Nancy Turay, Event and Sponsorship Manager said promotions and offers are not new to Africell and as a mobile company they set the pace to give out winnings and also fulfill what she called ‘social corporate responsibility’ to their subscribers and also give back to their wonderful customers out there. She intimated that they have done so many promotions and so many offers but with Mega Promo she said, is different, explained that for anyone who wants to be part of the promo the criteria is simple, stating that you first need to be an Africell subscriber.
She encouraged people to go out and get an Africell SIM cards which goes for Le 10 and after they have register their SIM card, she continued that details collected and the thing about the promotion upon activation when you activate a brand new SIM card you will have one chance and the more you recharge Le 10 the more chances you will get inside the mega promo.
“Monday to Friday the draw comes to you at 8pm on AYV TV and all major radio stations across the country. The reason being is that we want to be transparent. And we are not only giving you promotions but we also entertain you. For you it is not fortunate to see us through TV, but if you have internet on your phone you can access us through our Facebook page Africell SL” she said.
She continued that the chances are not carry forward, meaning, the chances are on daily bases, adding that after every evening the draw is done all those that are fortunate to be part of the daily draw will be wiped off for that particular day. She brings to the knowledge of subscribers that there is a service called ‘a credit transfer.’
“For example, let me say if I have recharge NLe 20 and transfer NLe 10 to you, some people will say this individual have transfer NLe 10 to me so I can have a chance, no you will not have a chance at all but the person who initially recharged the NLe 20 already have two chances. So if the person gives you NLe 10, it is just a normal call. So all you need to do is for you to recharge NLe 10 on your Africell SIM card” concluded stated.
