Tim Hortons customers get nothing, not even a Timbit, after email saying they won a boat

While scam emails saying you’ve won something are common, this was actually from Tim Hortons proper.

In a subsequent email to customers, Tim Hortons apologized for the mistake.

Altogether, the boat was estimated to be worth around $60,000, so people are understandably disappointed over the mixup.

Adding to the frustration is the fact that Tim Hortons hasn’t actually offered any compensation.

As CTV News notes, Tim Hortons incorrectly notified customers last year that they’d won $10,000 daily prizes and, according to the company, were given $50 gift cards for the error.

However, at least one Ontario resident who spoke to CTV News said he hasn’t received any such offer, which is especially notable given the value of the boat is significantly more than that of last year’s daily cash prize.
