The dream of owning a home is now a reality for Hassan Yousef Ahmed, who has become the latest winner of AED 1 million in Dubai Bank’s cash prize draw. In April this year, the 27-year-old Emirati IT professional invested AED 300,000 in Dubai Bank’s Kunooz Value Plus account, and was surprised when his savings turned into a fortune, with which he is set to buy a property for the first time ever.
“This fortune comes as a special reward. It is quite a blessing in these times of financial uncertainty around the world,” said Hassan. “I have been keen to purchase a property in Dubai and, as a Kunooz winner, I can now pursue this dream. My wife and I look forward to our new home.”
Hassan was in Kuwait at the time of the Dubai Bank draw. On his return to Dubai, Hassan was awarded his cheque by Ahmed Hamid Lootah, Head of Branches, Retail Banking Group, Dubai Bank.
Speaking on behalf of Dubai Bank, Lootah said: “This is the second of three monthly draws where Dubai Bank is giving away exciting cash prizes. These are more than just prizes; they are making lives better for our customers and helping them achieve their personal goals. Being able to do so in a Sharia-compliant manner, wherein deposits are fully guaranteed and the account opening process is simple, has made our Kunooz Value Plus account a popular savings option among UAE residents.”
He added that the Kunooz promotion has historically offered rewards such as cars, apartments, holiday packages and other such gifts. Recently, the Kunooz programme introduced a cash prize promotion. As part of this, for each multiple of AED 1,000 deposited in the Kunooz Account, the customer is eligible for one entry into the draw for daily cash prizes of AED 30,000. For every multiple of AED 5,000 deposited, account holders also beome eligible for entry into the monthly grand prize draw of AED 1 million.
The final cash grand prize draw for this quarter will take place on July 5. Entry for all eligible customers into the draw is automatic.
