Digicel has promised joyous Christmas season for their customers with some exciting promotions to make the festive season even more exciting.

On Wednesday, the company launched its Christmas campaign during a media session at Digicel's headquarters in Apia.

The telecommunication and digital operator revealed that the campaign consists of three main promotions which include customers winning a Toyota Hiace family van plus a share of cash prizes worth more than $100,000. 

Chairman of Digicel Samoa, Pepe Christian Fruean, told the media that customers prefer cash prizes so they can spend it on the things they need.

“We asked our customers what they wanted and the results showed that more people wanted cash prizes to spend on things they needed," he said, adding that it is important they listen to their customers and grow with them.

"We tailor our products, services and promotions to meet their requests. This wholesome campaign gives every Digicel customer the chance to win."

Pepe also explained that with the world including Samoa facing a global pandemic, it has undeniably cemented the importance of digital and the need for customers to embrace the digital era.

"At Digicel, we understand this and as a digital operator, it is our responsibility to not only stay current, but to make that we put our customers first, making things simple for them while enjoying a first class digital experience.

"Our new suite of apps [applications] allow customers to experience that digital world at their fingertips and our newly revamped Prime Cheehoo bundles offers so much free data to try these apps. We encourage all our customers to give it a go and give us feedback. 

"We have been growing with our customers since day one, and we will continue to grow with our customers as the world changes."

Pepe also thanked Digicel customers for their unwavering support and wished them a special and happy Christmas this year with their family and loved ones.
