Miss Emilie Barbe is the Star Prize-winner of the Cable Prepaid Jackpot Offer that Cable & Wireless ran from the 3rd to the 30th of June 2005. She won herself 2 return tickets to Dubai with Emirates Airline plus SR4400.
Emilie, who resides at Anse Aux Pins, was one of 12000 customers who topped up their prepaid account, using any Cable Prepaid Voucher, in order to automatically qualify for the draw. For every SR50 in top-up value, a customer received 1 entry into the draw. So customers who topped up their accounts regularly increased their chances of winning (e.g. SR50 = 1 entry, SR150 = 3 entries, etc.). Emilie had 8 entries into the draw.
The second prize of SR3000 went to Mr. Gabriel Victor with Mr. Walter Julius taking home the third prize of SR1000.
Cable & Wireless was delighted with the results of the promotion and congratulates the three winners. The company also thanks Emirates for their support in partnering Cable & Wireless with this exciting and innovative offer.
The promotion itself was first of a kind for both companies - it provided Cable & Wireless with the first of many opportunities to offer cash prizes and enabled Emirates to partner with an existing company in the Seychelles for the very first time to promote and advertise the new airline.
