Ten HSBC Bank Malta customers have had their credit card bill refunded up to a maximum of Lm500.

The winners of this lottery were drawn from among all those HSBC customers who used their credit card to make a purchase in the period between 1 December 2004 and 31 January 2005.

The winners were Joan Camilleri, Maruska Bezzina, Louise Gatt, Mario Casingena, Lubomir Silhavy, Sylvander Sant, Justin Zammit Tabona, Emilio Agius, Joseph Caruana and Catherine Friggieri.

Each winner received the amount of money spent on their credit card during the campaign period, up to a maximum of Lm500, which has been credited to their account. The prizes were distributed by Mr Nicolò Baldacchino-Orland, card products manager and Ms Speranza Catania, manager consumer finance at HSBC Bank Malta p.l.c.

“HSBC is always looking for innovative ways to offer its customers the best possible service. As part of this effort, HSBC periodically launches campaigns with incentives to encourage credit card usage amongst those customers who have an HSBC Visa, Mastercard, Visa Gold Card or Mastercard Premier,” said Mr Nicolò Baldacchino-Orland.
