But when they attempted to withdraw their winnings, they were told by Gala Bingo that the prizes were in fact glitches and they would not be able to cash the winnings. The glitch in the bingo company's system resulted in the prize pot increasing to £1.6million when it should have only reached a maximum of £150. As a result 1,188 players were left disappointed and out of pocket. The gambling site then sent out an email to it customers explaining the wins were a result of a technical fault.

The Scottish pair, who wished to remain anonymous, had hoped to spend their winnings on the funeral of a relative but were shocked to find their accounts frozen and the money nowhere to be seen.

We thought we could take care of the funeral with no worries about the expense.'

But her and her partner continued to play and their fears were even soothed by the bingo chat room host who told them to enjoy their winnings. She said: 'I wasn't sure about it all but then the host said "enjoy your winnings" - they obviously didn't realise what was happening.'

She told the Daily Mail that since the shocking incident, Gala Bingo has frozen her and her partners accounts and even disabled her husband's chat room privileges. because of his complaining.
