Request a cake from a bank…

kitchen tigress attempted to get a bday cake from OCBC (on her bdae) after watching their advert of giving away bdae cake. Note: the advrt does not specifically say that they give away bdae cakes…

Getting OCBC to cough up the cake was like prying something from a dead man’s cold, hard fingers. Or squeezing blood from a stone. But advertisements are so often deliberately misleading, I couldn’t resist the temptation to show an advertiser that misleading ads can sometimes backfire. A taste of its own medicine, perhaps?

There’s a sequel to the above, kitchen tigeress sent out a letter to the head honcho of OCBC informing him of the deed done and requested the manager be reimbursed.

I don’t know if the OCBC gentleman paid for the cake out of his own pocket but I’ve asked David Conner and Andrew Lee, respectively OCBC’s group CEO and Senior EVP of Global Consumer Financial Services, to make sure he’s reimbursed.
