Crank Up The Heat

What would you do with an extra $300 in your wallet this winter? WBCL wants to take the sting out of your heating bills with our Crank-up the Heat Contest. If you’re our weekly winner, you’ll be awarded with a $300 credit toward your heating bill. And to make your winter a bit cozier, you'll also receive a WBCL fleece blanket!

Here’s how to Win:

Be listening from 6 AM to 6 PM for the “Crank up the Heat” sounder.

The sounder will be played several times throughout the day. When you hear it, call 260.745.9090. If you are the 7^th caller, you’ll be qualified for the weekly drawing. Once you’re qualified, you’ll need to listen on Friday mornings at 7:10 AM to hear if your name is drawn for the weekly prize. Once your first and last name and city are announced, you will have 9 minutes and 30 seconds to call us back at 260.745.9090 and claim your prize ($300 credit toward your heating bill and a WBCL fleece blanket). If you don’t call back within the allotted 9 minutes and 30 seconds, your name will be put back in the hat and a new name will be drawn. The call must come from you (the qualified entrant); you may not have a delegate call on your behalf.

Don’t have a heating bill?

That’s okay, you can still play! If you win, you’ll have the chance to bless someone you know who might really need the assistance this year. And we’ll let you keep the blanket!

What qualifies as a Heating Bill?

WBCL will pay $300 toward the winner’s bill from any Electric or Gas Company that is used as their primary source of heat. Once you win, you will need to provide us with the name of your Electric or Gas Company in addition to your account number. From there we will make a $300 payment that will be credited toward your account.
