Overall, the draw saw a hundred plus customers across the nation getting their hands on the latest gadgets, special discounts and flight tickets like Mr Basant and other offers.
TFL chief executive, Mothilal De Silva said: “The continued support and business we have received from our customers over the years need recognition.
“That is the main reason for putting together this promotion. It is our way of thanking them and rewarding their years of loyalty.”
He further said they grateful for the partnership with Fiji Airways and looked forward to having future events with them.
“On the same note, we thank Post Fiji for their contribution and support, without these two companies this promotion would not have been so successful.”
The other major prizes included one ticket of any destination in the Pacific Island Countries and a domestic ticket with Fiji Airways’ Fiji LINK.
Broadband services
Meanwhile, Mr De Silva said they have will continue to use their broadband services more effectively and efficiently through innovation.
“The good thing about our services is they’re innovative ones. We don’t buy the services from outside the country,” Mr De Silva noted.
“We’ve managed to create them internally. TFL is a Fijian company and therefore all services produced by our staff who are in fact very young. They are also venturing to different projects.”
They have also managed to develop applications and will introduce other segmented products, similar to that of Noqu Viti which they will announce soon.
In terms of competition Mr De Silva said: “Yes there is competition but we always try to position ourselves differently.
“We are primarily a fixed-line network but some of our services and also fixed mobile services. We compete in a different platform altogether so we don’t want to get into this bloodbath. We can provide unique services to the customers.”
