Winning $1 million in the Digicel Golden SIM promotion has greatly enabled Mr. J Grayson to finally put the finishing touches on his family home over the coming months. Grayson is the third winner in the 21-week-running Digicel Golden SIM promotion.

When the Digicel team visited him at home in rural St. Andrew, Grayson began to lay out his plans for investing the money in adding a room and giving the house a facelift.

The golden ager, who has been held back by illness for some time, noted that upon learning about his fortune, he immediately felt better. A God-fearing man, Grayson credits his win to divine intervention.

“I feel very good and happy, and I am giving thanks for what God has allowed me to receive”, said Grayson, who described himself as being blessed, having won other promotions in the past.

With this latest win, Grayson also plans to buy a new stove and invest in his family’s farming business, rearing goats and chickens.

The elated farmer qualified to enter by doing what he normally does – adding credit to his prepaid number which he has had since 2001. “If I don’t have credit on my phone, I don’t sleep well. Sometimes I even borrow credit and pay it back afterwards,” Grayson reflected.

“Our Golden SIM promotion is about celebrating our customers for 21 years of service to them,” noted Brand Marketing Manager for Digicel, Carla Hollingsworth.

“We understand the life-changing impact of the $21 million set aside for up to 21 Digicel customers to win an equal share, we are very happy that this win will go a long way in improving Mr. Grayson’s home and farming business.”

The Digicel Golden SIM promotion runs until November 6, 2022. Each week, a Digicel prepaid or postpaid customer will win one million dollars if the serial number on their SIM card matches the weekly Golden SIM number.

The winning number is posted every Tuesday on Digicel’s social media pages, newspapers, the MyDigicel app, and balance enquiry messages. Mobile customers who top up, activate plans, make calls and texts and pay bills on time automatically enter the promotion.
