Remitting back home every month is a usual affair for most of the expatriates but winning dollars for remitting was unheard till now. 'Send Dirhams - Win Dollars' was one such campaign that enabled the customers to win dollars while remitting dirhams home.
Organised by UAE Exchange, the leading global remittances, foreign exchange and payment solutions brand, the campaign was part of its 'Winter Promotion'. To be eligible, the customer had to remit twice during the promotion period at any of the UAE Exchange branches in the UAE.
The brand announced the winners of its 'Send Dirhams - Win Dollars' campaign through two electronic draws. The draws, conducted at the UAE Exchange offices in Dubai and Sharjah on January 18 and January 21 respectively, were supervised by the Inspectors of respective Economic Development departments. Sala Uddin Mohammad Ishaque from Bangladesh won the mega prize of $100,000. The grand prize of $10,000 was conferred to five winners while fifty lucky winners won $1,000.
Also, present on the occasion were Fataullah Abdulla (Inspector, Dubai Economic Development, UAE), Varghese Mathew (country head, UAE Exchange-UAE), Mathai Vaidian (AVP-Sales and Services, UAE Exchange-UAE) and Kaushal Kishore Doshi (director-marketing, UAE Exchange-UAE).
"Our constant endeavour is to make our customers' life much easier and provide them with opportunities through which they can achieve their aspirations. We extend our heartfelt congratulations to the winners and wish their dreams come true this year. We also take this opportunity to thank each of our customers and partners for associating with us and making this promotion a great success," said Varghese Mathew.
Ecstatic on his win of US$100,000, Sala Uddin Mohammad Ishaque from Bangladesh said, "I was speechless for a minute when I got a call from UAE Exchange informing me about my win. I could not believe that I had won the mega prize. I am glad to be part of this brand as it not only supports me on all my financial needs but goes that extra mile to bring a smile on its customer's face."
"I am thrilled to be one of the lucky winners," said Raju Azhuthan Valappil from India, one of the five winners of US$10,000. "I have been a customer of UAE Exchange for the last ten years and I am thankful to them for giving my family and me such a memorable experience at the beginning of the year."
A delighted Ayman Al Jrab from Lebanon said, "It's a great start to my new year and I am very happy to be a winner. Thank you UAE Exchange." Ayman is one of the fifty lucky winners who won US$1000.
