A Facebook Controversy Erupts!

WLNSA few weeks ago, we started these little contests on Facebook. We would post a picture, like the one over there on the right, of a place where Worldline’s Unlimited High Speed Internet and Digital Home Phone has become available. Then we would challenge our Facebook friends to guess the location, and the first one to submit the correct answer wins some Worldline swag.*

We had another contest on Wednesday and the entries came in fast and furious. The way picked the winner was the pretty straight forward. Since Facebook sends out an email any time anyone comments on a post, the first email we received with the correct answer, (in this case Owen Sound, Ontario), was from a lady named Shari.

Today we announced that she had won and we received this reply:

“Hi there!  After looking at the contest post.  I don’t think i was the first to answer correctly.  I just want to be fair.  I do love Worldline though!!!

A controversy erupts! Shari was right. Looking at the post, it appears this guy Manuel was actually first. But we received her mail first. (It was certainly Facebook’s problem, not ours. Our email always works perfectly!)

Worldline BundleSo, what to do? Clearly, from now on we’ll go from the post on Facebook, but for particular contest  both will get some swag.

Manuel for being first, and Shari for being so freekin Canadian. Congrats to you both.

And congrats to Owen Sound as well. Now everyone in that beautiful city can take advantage of Worldline’s Unlimited High Speed  Internet and Home Phone bundle, and save up to $600/year.

Oh, and if you want to play along with our Facebook game, “Like” us on Facebook and you can see how much you know about Canadian geography, because we’re adding new communities to the Worldline family all the time.

 

* The swag is on the way, but there will be a delay because we recently changed our “look” and we’re waiting on the new stuff to arrive.
