Devizes Buzz Bingo player wins whopping £75,000 prize
A Wiltshire bingo player has bought a car after winning a whopping £75,000 prize by playing online.
Tina Tuckwell, from Devizes, was out for a meal when the online Buzz Bingo game she pre-bought tickets for was played out on Tuesday, April 30.
The next day she received a call telling her she had won the huge jackpot after buying £10 worth of tickets.
Tina said: “I couldn’t believe it, I was completely gobsmacked and just lost for words.
“I’d pre-bought tickets for the bingo game beforehand then my partner and I decided to go out for a meal that evening.
“I wasn’t actually online when the game was being played so had absolutely no idea I’d won, let alone won the jackpot.”
Tina is still undecided on how to spend the winnings but has used some of the money to buy a car.
She broke the news to family and friends on stage at Buzz Bingo Poole, where she often plays.
Tina added: “I can’t thank the team at Buzz Bingo Poole for the special celebration they organised for me and my family and friends.
“I will remember it forever, I felt like royalty with all the special treatment.”
Bingo players can compete for a total prize pot of £100,000 by playing Buzz Bingo’s monthly £100k Big One game.
