Four lucky Batelco customers are set to experience a weekend of luxury thanks to Batelco. The customers are the winners of an exciting raffle which offered a fantastic selection of prizes including acrobatic plane rides with the Blades in Bahrain and Grand Prix tickets.
Customers who took new SimSim, Valuetime, Freetime or Broadband Plus Packs from 8th March to 31st March 2007, were entered into a raffle draw to win the amazing Batelco VIP experience packs, with 2 VIP packs up for grabs, each for 2 couples.
Each prize includes tickets to all three days of the Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix plus LIMO car transport to and from the BIC, Acrobatic rides with the Blades in Bahrain air show, F1 Sports gear and dinner for 2 at the new and exclusive Banyan Tree Desert Spa and Resort, Al Areen.
The winners are Mohammed Nazimuddin who purchased a SimSim pack and Khurshid Abbasi who purchased a Valuetime pack and Blackberry. Both winners said they are delighted to win such an amazing prize.
“I was so happy to hear the news and started calling all my friends to tell them about my luck,” said Mohammed.
“I’ve never won anything before and now I’ve won such a big prize that I can’t believe it.”
Mohammed has invited his manager Kanhaiyalal (Kania) Gangwani to share the prize with him.
“I have been a Batelco customer for more than 15 years and I am so excited to have been invited by Mohammed to share in his good luck,” said Kania.
Khurshid says he was speechless when he won the VIP prize and really amazed when he discovered just how much the package included.
“I have never had the opportunity before to do something adventurous and so over the edge as ride in an acrobatic plane, so the chance to be a part of this is amazing, a once in a lifetime experience,” he explained.
Khurshid’s wife Haseena is really looking forward to the limousine trips to and from the BIC.
“It is our wedding anniversary this weekend so attending the Grand Prix and travelling in style in a chauffeur driven limo will make it a perfect weekend,” she said.
“Batelco has been a proud partner of the BIC since its formation and is delighted to play their part in ensuring the success of Bahrain’s annual Grand Prix by providing state-of-the-art telecommunication products and services,” said Batelco Corporate Affairs General Manager Ahmed Al Janahi.

Customers who missed out on winning the VIP Prizes still have the opportunity to win VIP packages this month. Customers purchasing any SimSim, Valuetime, Freetime or Broadband Plus Packs from 1st April to 30th April 2007 will enter a raffle to win Caterham rides at the BIC for couples, Mobile phones, Shopping Vouchers and dinner for 2 at the Banyan Tree Desert Spa and Resort, Al Areen.
