#Occupyjambojet Causes Wrangles Online After Firm Silently Changes Terms & Conditions

10600488_1532956220274176_4376589480921662678_nAll is not well with Jambojet and Scanad after the firms changed the competitions terms and conditions suddenly and quietly without informing participants who claim were close to winning.
The campaign dubbed#Occupyjambojet aimed at helping the firm get more followers on Twitter and get more people flying,and was a great social media makerting strategy but just poorly executed.The one-week campaign launched yesterday aims to see participants compete to get a group of 100 people including their friends and relatives, to fly on a one-day, all expenses  paid trip to Mombasa.
According to the firm, the first person to mobilise 99 passengers will be declared the campaign winner. The winning team will get to enjoy the free trip on September 27th and will be hosted by the Voyager Beach Resort ,with refreshments courtesy of Absolute Vodka and on-ground transport by Destination Connect.
It was so easy for anyone to fill up the 100 slots according to some team members that talked to TechMoran. However, after a few hours participating, they realized that new conditions had been introduced quietly requiring participant pilots to only add a specified number of crew per day i.e.
    • Friday – up to 25
    • Saturday – up to 35
    • Sunday – up to 45
    • Monday – up to 65
    • Tuesday – up to 85
    • Wednesday – up to 99.

    Which some of the participants think it’s still cumbersome.

Original terms and conditions

The original terms and conditions as below just wanted someone to join, form a team or join one and the first to hit 100 will be winners. Some of the participants were wondering why that should take anyone more than an hour to win. Other claim they were nearly winning but woke up to realize their numbers different.This competition rules had to be subject to the Betting Control and Licensing Board which was established by an Act of Parliament Chapter 131 Laws of Kenya of 1966 and it plays a big role in changing the notion that gaming is a vice. The Betting Control and Licensing Board is charged with the responsibility of controlling and licensing of Betting and Gaming premises, facilitation of tax collection, authorization of public lotteries and prize competitions, inspection and elimination of illegal gambling and we are sure JamboJet’s OccupyJambojet met the board’s requirements. However, adding clauses to the competiton rules is clearly a fraud and illegal.
