African Palace fails to pay out jackpot win
 June 8, 2009, 8:42 am (2 years ago)On November 7th last year, A 66 year-old South African lady hit a gigantic progressive slot jackpot at African Palace Casino.com, providing her the opportunity to get rid of all the financial worries. Apparently, this miracle was just the beginning as this week in the South African Sunday Times newspaper reports that they there has been another big winner.
Marie Van Wyk was playing the Beach Life progressive slot when she did a Rands 80 and hit a jackpot. She was congratulated by African Palace, who took advantage of the win extensively in a sense of publicity.
It seems that some agreement was made with the Playtech-powered online casino to pay the fortunate winner in 6 monthly payments instead of 1 slice of the whole amount. Van Wyk wasn’t worry about being not paid properly by the casino owners since she had already been effectively paid out on a Rands 64,000 jackpot at the same casino.
Apparently, she guessed wrong this time. The arrangement was effective only for 2 payments, with Van Wyk getting only Rands 2.8 million in total, before payments dried up and the April installment did not arrive.
Van Wyk worries that the May payment has also been suspended, and this caused her to tell her story to the local newspapers.
