A bank clerk accidentally gave a customer nearly £2 million. Care worker Jenny Woollvin, 24, paid a £50 winning Premium Bond cheque into her local Abbey branch. But when she checked her balance, she found she was a “millionaire”.
Her original receipt showed the clerk had put part of her account number into the space where the amount goes — and given her £1,761,000.
Jenny, 24, from Seaford, East Sussex, said: “I was staggered. It was nice to have a dream.”
But 24 hours later the cash “disappeared”. The Abbey — whose slogan is ‘More ideas for your money’ — said; “This was a genuine human error. When we cashed up, we made the correction.”
