RECORD BINGO JACKPOT HIT BY UK PLAYER

11 April 2008

GBP 107 647 makes a major difference to Lancashire man's bank balance


What is believed to be one of the highest ever online bingo jackpots - GBP 107 647 - was won this week at Bingo Gold.com by MarkJ, a player from Lancashire in the UK.

"I'm in shock. I just can't believe it. It's absolutely fantastic! I've only been a member for a few weeks. I've had today off work so thought I'd have a quick go, then I won!"

It wasn't before long that Mark got on the phone to his family to share his big news, which is an added celebration for one sibling in particular.

"I'm home alone with just the dog so I've been ringing everyone. They're all just really happy for me! My sister's over the moon. It's come at a great time. She's pregnant."

Mark plans to use the windfall to buy a home for himself and his partner of three years: "I live with my partner and have been looking to buy a house near the coast, so this will help towards the deposit," he said.

The lucky player will soon travel to London for a presentation ceremony.
