“LAS VEGAS VACATION” - Peter K from Alberta

Peter and a guest spent a very special long weekend in Las Vegas, Nevada, including round trip airfare, accommodation at the world-famous Palms Hotel & Casino and $500.00 spending money, all courtesy of Zoompass. We caught up with Peter after he returned from his Vegas vacation and here’s what he had to say…

“We had an amazing time!  The Palms Resort was nice and going Halloween weekend sure made things interesting.  We visited almost every resort on the strip during our time in Las Vegas.  We also saw 3 shows: Secret Garden at the Mirage, Shark Reef at Mandalay Bay and Titanic at the Luxor.  The restaurants and buffets were fabulous and overall the trip went smoothly. Thanks for making this a reality for us. We can’t wait to go back next year!”

Congratulations again to all our winners and thanks to everyone who participated. Stay tuned for more updates!

Luz Montealto is a Filipino immigrant living in Calgary, Alberta. She has been working as a Medical Technologist in Canada for six years now. For the past few years Luz has been supporting her family back in the Philippines. She sends money once a month for her sister’s allowance and every two weeks to pay for a house that is currently being built for her family.

“I send money little by little to build this house for my family. I hope for my parents to live comfortably,” says Luz. “It makes my day every time a section of the house is built and my sister sends me a new picture of it. My dream home is slowly becoming real.”

Luz uses the Western Union that is available through Zoompass to send money to her family who live in a small town in the Philippines called Pigcawayan, Cotabato. She chooses the service because it is convenient and reliable.

“I am an avid Western Union user because I love how quickly the money gets to my family really quickly,” she says. “Now that I tried Western Union service offered through Zoompass, I am addicted to how convenient it is to send money on my computer or my cellphone from wherever I am. It is such a big relief for me to be able to send money at work since I often can’t make it to the bank because there are too many patients waiting in the clinic.”

“There’s no need for me to line-up at the bank or carry around lots of money,” says Luz. “This is by far my favourite feature!”

“With Western Union and Zoompass, I can send money to my family when they need it most, and I can send it no matter where I am or what time it is,” says Luz with a smile.
