A lucky Secunda local wins with #ICanWithAbsa
Season two of #ICanWithAbsa saw three lucky winners drive away with a brand-new Toyota Scarlet.
Three lucky Absa clients recently each drove away in a brand-new Toyota as part of season two of the #ICanWithAbsa Drive Show.
The drive show had an estimated R2 million in cash and prizes to clients who took out an Absa Personal Loan and opened a transitional account.
On October 27, the three lucky winners, Elsabe Dieppenaar, Kutlwano Matiea and Ruwayda Grootboom picked up their brand-new Toyota Scarlet’s from Toyota Bryanston.
According to Absa Group head of transitional banking Omar Baig, it was such a good feeling to give back to clients who continued to show their loyalty to the bank.
“We did this [drive show] to really connect and reconnect with our customers and to finally see that come to fruition, to see the joy and their reaction.
“I was just having a chat with one of the customers who said that she had never won anything in her life before, just on the drive here her heart was beating like crazy.”
He added that season two of #ICanWithAbsa came at a time when South Africans were recovering from the pandemic.
“Over the last two years, we have been trying to help customers with their banking needs. This was one of the ways of reconnecting with them with something that may be a little closer to their hearts and will help them achieve different objectives in their life.
“It is not often that we get to do this and to be able to give back something small to our customers is everything to us,” said Baig.
Head of strategic marketing Vongai Mageza echoed that Absa wanted to do more for people and make an impact in their lives.
“It is that spirit of reciprocity that we talk about, our customers do and we do even more,” said Mageza.
