Mr. Mohamed Aqeel Abid became RAKBANK’s 5th millionaire on July 7 with RAKBANK Mastercard Million Dirham draw. Mohamed, a Pakistani national, decided to migrate to the United Arab Emirates few years ago to start a new career. Finding a job proved tough. However, with his persistence he found a job as a Junior Sales representative. His consistency in performance rewarded him quickly with a series of promotions.

Mohamed has a daughter and a son, aged four and one respectively. His son, born with twelve fingers and eleven toes has been awaiting an operation which according to doctors will be very costly. However, now that he won the RAKBANK million, Mohamed’s happiness is inexpressible. His foremost objective is to proceed with his son’s operation, give money to his family, take them to Umrah, build a school in his father’s name, and finally build a house in his homeland. He plans to remain at his present job, maintain his consistency, and keep climbing the ladder.

Mohamed initially assumed that RAKBANK’s call for the Million Dirham was a prank. He revealed, “I never thought it could happen to me, I’m still stunned”. Prior to winning the million, Mohamed decided to transfer his Credit Card balance from another bank to RAKBANK simply because RAKBANK offers Credit Card benefits that no other bank could match such as being free for life, no annual fees ever, lowest interest rate, increased card limit, and the chance to win millions.

‘We are glad to know that our MasterCard million Dirham prize is won by a person who is really in need for it and the money will help him realize both his and his family’s dreams’ said Murray Sims, Head of Personal Banking RAKBANK.

RAKBANK was the first to introduce free for life Credit Cards. RAKBANK MasterCard holders can win AED 1,000,000 every three months and AED 500,000 in all other months
