Qatar Islamic Bank (QIB) has announced the new millionaire winner of its Misk account draw for 2023.
Ali Abdulla al-Attiyah was awarded QR1mn at the 6th edition of the draw, with two more millionaires to follow until November.
The lucky winner was selected randomly in a draw that took place in the presence of official representatives from the Ministry of Commerce and Industry as well as QIB officials.
The QIB’s Misk account is a savings account that offers customers exceptional features and benefits and gives them the opportunity to win weekly, monthly, and grand prizes quarterly.
With four millionaires to be awarded throughout the year, this edition of the Misk Account Draw has seen the number of monthly prizes double from two to four, with each monthly winner receiving QR50,000.
In addition, the QIB is offering QR10,000 to 15 winners every week, bringing the total number of winners to 832 receiving QR14.2mn dedicated for this edition.
Running until November 16, the QIB’s Misk Account Draw has continued to offer customers the freedom to deposit and withdraw money from their account at their convenience while giving them the opportunity to win life-changing prizes.
Commenting on winning the grand prize, al-Attiyah said, “I am grateful to the QIB for the chance to become one of the lucky winners.”
“I was hoping it could happen, but I was totally surprised when I found out ... I feel honoured to be a QIB customer,” he said. “I think that opening a Misk account is an excellent way to save money and have the chance to win cash prizes.”
“I strongly encourage everyone to participate in the Misk Account Draw by opening their own Misk account,” he added.
D Anand, the QIB general manager (Personal Banking Group), said: “Congratulations to our new millionaire. We are pleased to continue offering the Misk account and its exceptional rewards, making it the largest prize pool for a savings account in Qatar.”
