The Grand Prize Bank Myth

For years and years we have heard of local banks giving away millions of KD in prizes. From NBK’s Jawhara to Gulf Bank’s Al-Dana to CBK’s Najma and more recentlyو BKME’s Hassad grand prize. But the myth is as follows: if you have a relative of the first degree working in any of these banks, you are automatically out of the running to win it, so its better off moving your money elsewhere. I never got the logic of that, and still dont truly believe it, but can anyone guarantee this with facts?

    I used to work in a bank and I don’t think there is any truth to this myth. BUSTED in my opinion!
