Foxy Bingo has honoured an error made behind the scenes and paid the winner of a coverall game £50,000 instead of the usual £500 prize. The game, which was designed to run as a coverall jackpot, was accidentally promoted on the Foxy Bingo web site as being a guaranteed jackpot game worth £50,000.

The game was won by a player known as tracey1801 in 60 calls, and Cashcade, the company which owns Foxy Bingo, paid her the £50,000 sum even though it isn’t legally obliged to do so.

Foxy Bingo is well known for its high levels of customer service and dedication to giving its players the best possible online bingo experience, but the decision by Cashcade to honour such a big mistake really does show how committed the company is to making its clients happy.

News of this £50,000 payout comes as Foxy Bingo aims to make history by giving away a massive total of £500,000 during the month of May. Games with jackpots worth £2,500, £5,000 and £10,000 will be played every week in May, and there is also a new £25,000 jackpot game on the cards.

Players will be able to purchase their tickets up to a week in advance of games with the bigger jackpot prizes, and up to a month in advance of the £25,000 game. Participants will also be in with a chance to win a 37” Panasonic TV each week in May. The only condition to these games is that players must have funded their account at least once before they can take part.

The big prize action will be held in the Jump n Jive, Lucky Stars, Tally Ho Bingo and Win a Way rooms, so if you fancy your chances of winning a stack of money or a state of the art television in May, you know exactly where to go.

It’s always nice to publish good news, and the story of Foxy Bingo honouring an error which cost them £49,500 should bring a smile to the face of every online bingo player, because it shows that some sites really do care about their players. We commend Cashcade for making the decision to pay tracey1801, and we wish all readers who play at Foxy Bingo in May the very best of luck.
