Ballyclare Mum-To-Be wins Northern Ireland’s Biggest ever radio prize!
Christmas comes early for lucky listener Diane as she unwraps record-breaking Cash Call
Last updated 27th Nov 2020
A Co Antrim mum-to-be has had a pre-Christmas delivery like no other…
That’s because Diane McCosh just scooped the biggest-ever cash prize, shelled out on any radio station across Northern Ireland - ever!
The Ballyclare woman, who’s expecting her first child in the New Year, collected a record £44,444 - and all on the day of her hubby Warrens birthday …
After a surprise call from host of Cool FM Downtown Cash Call John Kearns, Diane was lost for words… before revealing that she thought the phone was ringing to say the takeaway she’d ordered was ready!
“It’s my hubby’s birthday today so that’s a nice present for him. It’s massive for us – we’re expecting our first wee baby in January. I’m shaking…Thank-you so much”
And she agreed with John – that dreams really do come true.
Diane joins the long list of Cash Call winners from across Northern Ireland who have collectively picked up £1.25 million during 2020.
Stuart Robinson who is the ‘Content Director’ for Cool FM / Downtown has teased even bigger Cash Prizes for lucky Northern Ireland winners before Christmas and into the New Year. “Cool FM Downtown Cash Call has become a phenomenal competition and is now the most talked about thing on the radio in Northern Ireland – we’ve been delighted to be able to give away so much money to our listeners during 2020, as we’ve now paid out a record winning amount to Diane - it’s my job to start looking at how we can make Cash Call even BIGGER in the future”.
Next up will be Cash Call’s ’12 Days of Christmas’ in December where Cool FM / Downtown listeners will be guaranteed to win massive cash amounts for 12 days straight, building up to Christmas.
