President Roy Graydon, EA Dawn Gamble and VP Mike Brown load up the Worldline Truck<\/p><\/div>\n

There’s nothing like giving stuff away.<\/p>\n

Especially to nice people….and especially when they are a customer.<\/p>\n

Our first ever Facebook contest was a booming success. Not only did we add a ton of followers to our brand new Facebook page<\/a>, we also got to hear a bunch of feedback from our customers on some issues they were having, and also about how happy so many of them were with their Worldline service.<\/p>\n

It’s been great for all of us here, as \u00a0folks rarely take the time to call us up and tell us, “Hey! You’re awesome!” Seriously, who does that? Well,\u00a0it turns out they do on social media\u00a0outlets like Facebook. Who knew?<\/span><\/p>\n

\"HighSpeed50DSL\"<\/a>Anyway, back to the Facebook 50\/50 contest, which was used to promote our new Unlimited High Speed DSL 50Mbps Internet<\/a> service. As I said, it worked out great with over 3000 entrants from across the country. We employed a 3rd party contest company, (thanks Contest.is!), to take care of the draw for us, and they randomly chose a nice lady named Carol from London, Ontario as the winner.<\/p>\n

London. That’s close to Worldline headquarters .VP Mike Brown<\/a>, (who is Mr. Enthusiasm), decided since this was Facebook thing was a first for us he wanted to drive it out in person,<\/p>\n

Dawn<\/a>, the president’s EA gave her a shout and let her know she’d won. Carol was thrilled as she’d “never won anything before.”<\/p>\n

\"CarolTV\"<\/a>We arranged a time that worked for all, loaded up the truck and drove the hour down the 401.\u00a0Carol, who is retired, was very happy for the personal delivery, and we carried it up to her\u00a0apartment<\/span>\u00a0for her, and were ready to set it up, but she told us to leave it in the box, as she was going to give it to her daughter, especially because her 2-year old granddaughter would “go nuts.”<\/span><\/p>\n

She then offered us coffee and, oh, while we were there, “Could you check on my modem? I think it’s running a little hot.”<\/p>\n

It turns out Carol isn’t just a Worldline winner, she’s also a Worldline customer, and took the opportunity for a\u00a0little\u00a0service call.\u00a0Smart lady!<\/p>\n

So\u00a0congratulations\u00a0Carol. Hope your daughter enjoys her TV (and that we haven’t ruined the surprise.)<\/p>\n

And we can’t wait for the next contest to start, which is this coming Tuesday to celebrate the brand new look for Worldline.ca<\/a>, with the winner taking home one of these:<\/p>\n
