CIMB Bank Fortune 10 contest

The CIMB Bank Fortune 10 contest runs from 1st June 2013 - 30 September 2013.

Before I went for vacation in Taiwan, I received an SMS from CIMB asking me to answer two simple questions and I would be notified if I were one of the 2500 monthly winners.



This morning when I just came back from Taiwan, I received another SMS from CIMB saying that I was one of the 2500 winners for the month of August 2013 and the interest had been credited into my savings account!



I was so excited and I felt I was so LUCKY!

I logged into my CIMBClicks account and checked the transaction history.

I saw the last transaction was yesterday with description "CREDIT ADVICE".


I called the CIMB customer service to clarify the entry.

The customer service personnel was blur and did not clear about this contest.

She asked me to give her some times to check on it.

Later she said this was the amount that I won since there was no more latest transaction.

She also could not provide me with a formula so that I could calculate on my own.

When I looked at the amount of money I got as the prize, I felt so disappointed.

I had only won RM9.14 =.="

Do you feel I am lucky now? zzzZZZ

I think this contest is s**ks...

Maybe I did not read the T & C properly.

The blog post below seemed to identify some important points clearly:

Maybe I should put in more money e.g. 1 million ringgits into my savings account... that only if I have that amount of money :p

However, CIMB Bank capped the prize at RM1,000 for any monthly winners.

Thus, you can only win RM1,000 maximum even if you put in millions of ringgits into your savings account.

zzzZZZ...
