Everyone loves online casino welcome bonuses but few manage to turn them into a cool quarter of a mill! That's exactly what Brett Hill did when he used his free bet on the Major Millions slot. He couldn't believe his eyes when three jackpot symbols came up, triggering his massive £25K windfall. A Truly Happy Christmas Following his win he was, "dancing around the room like a lunatic". The win put a new spin on Christmas for Brett and his family, "We have given our children a bit of cash for Christmas and I have just returned from picking up my wife's brand new car as a result of the win! I'm saving the rest for a holiday or just a rainy day, as well as having a £1000 each for Christmas." 32Red is one of the UK's favorite online casinos and has won the Casinomeister Best Casino Award an incredible six times. Pat Harrison, Operations Director at the casino and slots giant commented, "Brett's win is amazing; he turned the £32 free from 32Red for signing up into £25,000." An Appropriate Name Brett's lucky Major Millions game is renowned for producing impressive wins; in 2008 Anne C took home over £1million from the bonus jackpot. Brett's win was actually not a bonus jackpot but a regular payout, leading Harrison to comment, "Brett's win demonstrates the strength of Major Millions and of our online slots in general, proving that the big wins are out there to be had". Brett is continuing to bet at 32Red and enjoys the Mega Moolah slot, which itself has a history of big jackpots, having paid out over £6 million earlier this year. We doubt, however, that it will ever replace Major Millions in Brett's affections.
