I broke Deal Or No Deal records with the highest ever win but still haven’t received a penny from ITV – I sobbed watching myself on screen

A Deal Or No Deal winner and record breaker confirmed that she still hasn’t received her winnings from ITV. 

Nay Nay from Croydon, London, won a whopping £75,000 and was crowned the game show’s highest ever winner since the ITV reboot.  

Her episode aired on Monday and showed her successful plan of not taking any of the Banker’s offers and staying with her original box until the end.

The paralegal insisted that whatever was inside was what she was ‘destined’ to have.

It proved to be the right decision and Nay Nay walked away with a huge sum, however, she revealed to Metro that she hasn’t been paid her jackpot just yet. 

She shared that the life-changing winnings will be put into her bank account next month, but that she has already planned how she will spend the cash – a house deposit, treating her Grandmother to a spa day and donating 10% to her church.

The Londoner watched the amazing episode surrounded by her family and was overcome with emotion when she saw herself on screen. 

Nay Nay told Metro: ‘All the emotions came back. I started crying again when I was watching it, just because it’s a life-changing amount of money.’

She recalled the fun she had on the show after waiting 27 games to be selected. 

Nay Nay said: ‘My strategy was my faith. I knew I was going to the end so my main thing is I wanted to ensure that I had fun, which I definitely did.

‘I mean, my game was so fun. I remember screaming, crying, laughing, and it was just amazing.’ 

Nay Nay played a ‘once-in-a-lifetime board’ during her time on the show and gradually removed all of the blue boxes, leaving an impressive selection of reds.

Soon, she was left with the two highest figures – £75,000 and £100,000.

The banker called and Stephen said, ‘He’s absolutely furious, he said what an awful game. He can’t believe he’s saying this, he said he’s hoping the £75,000 is in your box.’

He made a final offer of £82,700 for Nay Nay’s box, to which Stephen said: ‘This is the highest offer we’ve ever had, so full credit to you.’

When asked Deal or No Deal, Nay Nay responded: ‘Thank you Mr Banker but no deal.’

Stephen opened the box to show £75,000 before revealing: ‘You are walking away as our highest ever winner’.

Viewers quickly posted their congratulations on social media, and one exclaimed on X: ‘Okay! £75,000 is not bad! HIGHEST EVER WINNER ON THE ITV ERA! BIG WIN! 

‘BIG WIN! #DealOrNoDeal CONGRATULATIONS NAY NAY! YOU DESERVE THAT WIN!’

Another said: ’75k winner Wow she played a crazy good game!!! #DealOrNoDeal.’

While a fifth added: ‘Omg Nay Nay’s game!!! #DealOrNoDeal.’
