Jul, 06A woman from Cumbria has won the largest amount of money ever to be given away by the online bingo operator, Mecca Bingo. The woman, who doesn’t wish to be named, has only been a member at Mecca Bingo for a few months and scooped the massive win while playing one of the mini games in the bingo game. The game ‘Clover Rollover’ is an online slots game with a progressive jackpot. The lucky winner couldn’t believe her luck when she hit the 5 lucky shamrocks and got her hands on the on the ever increasing bingo jackpot.
The woman, whose online username is named after her pet dog, will be presented with her cheque for £1.2 million pounds in the next few weeks.
She comments: “I’m absolutely thrilled to have won the jackpot, I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw the five lucky shamrocks in a row, especially since I’ve only been playing the game for a few weeks. It’s all been such a shock that I haven’t decided what to do with the money yet, but I’ll certainly be buying my pet dog a few treats after using her name as my online sign-in. And maybe now I’ll change her name to Lucky now!”
Angus Nisbet, Head of Gaming at Meccabingo.com, comments: ““It is fantastic news that one of our players has scooped such a huge prize. This prize is the largest that we have ever given away, however it is not unusual for our customers to walk-away with a life-changing amount of money from playing bingo with Mecca . I’m sure the whole online community on Mecca Bingo will be pleased for her, but secretly hoping it will be them next time!”
