Two London locals have struck gold after winning a life-changing £50,000 each at Buzz Bingo in Tooting.

The winners both said they will split the winnings with friends and family after the jackpot at the bingo site in Mitcham Road.

One, who wishes to remain anonymous, plans to use her winnings to plan a family holiday and pay off outstanding bills.

While the other, who also wishes to remain anonymous, has vowed to split the winnings four ways with her friend, family member and business partner and put her share into savings for the future.

The pair had only previously won a maximum of £20 following a visit to the bingo.

Jeevah, General Manager at Buzz Bingo Tooting, said “We couldn’t be happier for our two lucky winners and their fantastic wins, everyone was cheering from their seats – it was such an exciting moment.”

Chief Retail Officer at Buzz Bingo, Peter Brigden, said “The atmosphere in club when there’s a big win is always incredible, and we’re delighted to see two more Big Buzz Special winners scoop £50K, at Buzz Bingo Tooting.

"They were the 37th and 39th people to win this £50k jackpot since clubs re-opened in May, that’s two winners a week on average which is incredible!

"Overall Buzz Bingo players win more than £2m per week in bingo prize money and have won over £2m in Big Buzz Special jackpots.

"It’s great to celebrate a win and have the rest of the bingo community celebrate that too!”
