  • PaddyPower Big Jackpot Prize Payout!

    By Lisa West on Thursday, 18th June 2009

    Somewhat curiously, ‘maygodblessme’, the latest big Jackpot Prize winner at PaddyPower, certainly got what they asked for!  This latest lucky Bingo winner bagged just over £17,000 playing the great, British, 90ball Bingo Game, in the Gold Room at PaddyPower Bingo.

    Maybe ‘maygodblessme’ did have their prayers answered that day, or maybe it was lady luck shining down her sparkling light.  Thank the stars, thank Him, thank your mother!  When you walk away with a big Jackpot Prize like that, it’s good news, and that’s always welcome.

    Another incredible thing?  This big Jackpot Prize winner hadn’t been playing the 90Ball Bingo Game five minutes when they hit the Jackpot. For just a handful of 10p tickets, they landed themselves a mountain of lovely cash.  It all seems so incredible, even the winner can’t believe it’s true!  No doubt, when their bank balance clocks up the cash, they’ll become a true ‘believer’!

    It’s no wonder that PaddyPower have become so popular in the world of Online Bingo.  They’ve always been ‘up there’ with the big boys, when it comes huge Jackpot Prize payouts.  Now, ‘maygodblessme’ also has the privilege of being added to the hall of, Paddy Bingo, ‘big winners’ fame.

    If you haven’t tried PaddyPower yet, register, deposit and play at least £5, and they will match that deposit - up to £30!  They always have plenty of promotions going on, with cash and prizes up for grabs. Not only do they have the 90Ball Bingo Game available, they also offer an 80ball ‘Speed  Bingo’ game, slots, video poker, scratch cards and a good selection of casino games.

    Paddy Power is another great sight using the ‘Virtual Fusion’ software. Whenever there’s a big winner, it always leaves the rest of us feeling a little more optimistic, and there’s nothing wrong with that!

  • £1.2 Million Mecca Online Bingo Jackpot

    By Lisa West on Wednesday, 8th July 2009

    Seems like Mecca Bingo are always in the news, for one reason or another, these days, and it certainly seems like that £62 Million Tax Rebate will be coming in handy! Because one lucky player, from Cumbria, has just won £1.2 million playing Online Bingo at the Mecca Bingo website. It has also been confirmed, by Mecca officials, this is the biggest payout, ever, for the Mecca Online Bingo site. A spokesman stated that the company think it’s “fantastic news”. Lynsey Mirehouse thought she’d take a quick spin on Mecca’s ‘Clover Rollover Progressive Jackpot’ slot game, and couldn’t believe her luck when those five lucky shamrocks dropped into place. I bet she couldn’t!

    The Mecca Bingo Clover Rollover has been on the rise for months now, and the air has been thick with anticipation among Mecca’s Online Bingo players for a while. Especially since it hit that magical £1 million mark! Lucky Lynsey threw a party at home, and along with hubby, Barry, they celebrated by having a few friends over for drinks. Apparently, they haven’t had much rest since, with the shock. Or is the wine??!!! Lyn, who works for a Workington insurance company, hasn’t decided what to do with the money yet, apart from she’s going to treat her dog! (no mention of the treating hubby - like her style).

    Lyn will be receiving her money, from Mecca Bingo superstar, Bingo Dave, in a few weeks time. At a special VIP presentation in London. The Mecca Bingo Clover Rollover has now been reset to a cool quarter of a million… Definitely not to be sniffed at! Like Lyn, you could be the next lucky player to roll over in the clover at Mecca Bingo. But, If you don’t play, there’s no way!!! If you haven’t signed up yet, that’s probably a good sign. Like Lyn, every big winner seems to be new, or nearly new to Online Bingo. So, what you waiting for? It just might be you!

    By Lisa West on Saturday, 18th July 2009

    Twenty lucky Players from the Mecca Bingo Hall in Bolton have just been given a big treat.

    Local Bingo Hall players, at Mecca Bingo, were asked to send an email to the Wigan Warriors, if they wanted a chance to take part in a special Bingo Game.  Then, twenty Players were randomly selected to spend a whole evening playing Bingo with their favourite boys!

    Not only did twenty lucky locals from the Bolton Mecca Bingo Hall get to play alongside the first team members of the Wigan Warriors, there were also treated to a great selection of special prizes.  Every type of Ruby paraphernalia was up for grabs; autographed T-shirts, tickets for the up and coming big game against Leeds, and all sorts of other great stuff.  The perfect night out for the true Rugby fan. Seems Mecca Bingo definitely know how to throw a big Bingo Game for their members!

  • You Lucky Swine!!

    By Lisa West on Wednesday, 5th August 2009

    It was a double bubble for ‘Swine Flu’ last week, with two big Bingo winners having to hold off collecting their prizes, due to being struck down with the virus.  Eighteen year old Sam Davies couldn’t collect her nice new, shiny Fiat Panda, from the Sun Bingo, due being quarantined.  However, even when Sam is finally allowed out, she still won’t be driving the car home.  Because she hasn’t even passed her test yet!!  

    The new Fiat Panda is just one of a hundred up for grabs in a Sun Bingo special promotion, which will run up until September 27th.  To qualify, players must spend £2 a day on the Sun Bingo Games, or £10 on slots, for a single entry into the weekly draw  (guess unemployed Sam invested her money in the right place after all).  Apparently, even Sam couldn’t believe she’d got that lucky.  

    Twenty eight year old Kevin Packer, a carpenter from Surrey, actually has a lot to thank the Swine Flu for!  When ordered by the doctor to stay home, Kevin thought he might as well kill some time and have a browse on the internet.  Through crazy circumstance and just sheer good luck (apart from a dose of the flu!), Kevin is now £100,000 richer, after placing a free bet at the William Hill casino portal.  As Kevin says himself, he must be the “luckiest flu victim in the world”!

    Kevin won playing the progressive Jackpots at William Hill.  He says he’s not a gambler, and it just seemed a good way to pass the time. Wow!  Bet he’s glad he clicked that flashy banner now.  Online Bingo players, at the William Hill gaming portal, can also play slots, instants, scratch cards, and a whole assortment of exciting side games.  Big money Jackpot payouts are regular, with William Hill claiming they pay out around £750,000  month just on the slot games!  However, you might need to have Swine Flu, in order to be eligible for some luck…lol!

  • Top Ten Bingo Bandit?

    By Lisa West on Thursday, 17th September 2009

    One of the UK’s Bingo Halls is shrouded in controversy today, after being accused of not standing by it’s promised £5000 jackpot prize payout.  The Bingo Hall in question is the “Top Ten”, situated in Billingham, on Teeside.  The player making the accusation is nineteen year old Lynsey Dickenson.  She claims the club short changed her on the prize jackpot, by £4000.  Definitely, something to shout about, if that is the case.  We are not talking about loose change here!  

    According to Lynsey, the screen at the Bingo Hall was displaying a jackpot prize of £5000, when she hit the full house. Therefore, she believed that she had won that amount.  Lynsey also believes that they announced it as a £5000 jackpot in the club, although this has been flatly denied by staff.  As you would imagine, she was ecstatic when she won, stating that she had “never won anything big before”.  The letdown came when she went to collect her winnings, and was informed that there had been an error, that the jackpot was actually £1000.  In spite of the fact Lynsey had a signed winners ticket, clearly stating she had won £5000.  Without doubt, highly disappointing…to say the least.

    All this does leave you wondering, why and how they made such a big mistake?  Lynsey has already made an official complaint to the UK gambling commission.  If the club are made to pay out, that’s going to reduce revenues.  She feels that the Billingham Bingo Hall should be made to honour the £5000, and does not accept that it was simply a mistake. According to the Top Ten Bingo Hall’s regional manager, Paul Cudlip, there was no mistake.  He states that the signed winners ticket is only “part of the overall process of validating claims”.  Ultimately, the Gambling Commission will have the final say.

  • Mum's The Word At Foxy!

    By Lisa West on Tuesday, 22nd September 2009

    Hey, I don’t know about you, but I just love to hear a good ‘Bingo’ story!  Back in June, Foxy Bingo invited all their players to come forward and make their nominations; for the award of “Foxy Bingo Mum|Dad Of The Year”.  Not that Foxy needs an excuse, to make a nice gesture to his very own Bingo community, he does it all the time.  However, it was considered apart of his 3rd birthday celebrations.

    Most of us have someone we would like to see get a little recognition.  Hundreds of friends and relatives, and of course, Foxy Bingo roomies, sent in some seriously heart warming and sincere nominations. Of which, Foxy’s little helpers spent hours going over, before choosing the final three.  After that, it was down to the votes of the community, to decide who would ultimately win.  

    The response to this innovative promotion has been incredible, which just goes to show, there are a lot of good roomies out there!  The nominations and the votes were entered in the Foxy Bingo Chat Rooms.  Promotions like this, bringing friends in the communities together, can only be a good thing for Online Bingo. Which is why, it would be great to see a whole lot more, in the very near future.

    Turns out, the award is for “Foxy Bingo Mum Of The Year”….. and that went to ‘Lisathur’, who is a hardworking, Bingo loving, foster parent. ‘Lisartur’ is among Foxy’s most loved roomies, and was voted by fellow friend and Bingo buddy, ‘foxyfarehamminx’.  She dedicates her time to looking after troubled and estranged children, helping them through some of their most vulnerable and difficult times. Now, she is off for a well deserved family holiday to Centre Parcs.  Foxy has promised to bring back this promotion next year, and it has certainly had a positive affect upon the community.  10/10 for innovation!

  • Wink Bingo Pays Out £25K On The Big O!

    By Lisa West on Wednesday, 23rd September 2009

    There has been some serious build up to Wink Bingo’s “Big O” prize draw.  It started in July, as part of their ‘Summer Lovin’ promotions. The £25K up for grabs, is the biggest jackpot, Wink have ever offered.  Literally thousands of tickets and hundreds of players entered into this £1 a ticket, mammoth prize draw.  Everyone has been eagerly waiting for the ‘grand finale’, and finally, the agonising wait is over.  Looks like the thirteenth really is lucky for some, because that’s the day the ‘Big O’ finally ended.  The luckiest player at Wink Bingo right now is “myracar79”.  And you can bet, don’t she just know it!  Now….

    When she first heard the news, myracar79 thought the site had been hacked! And rang security to tell them so…  Her first response, being one of utter disbelief, also made her convince herself that it was bonus points she had won, not ££££££’s.  Main problem??? Wink’s Big O promotion had been going on so long, she couldn’t even remember buying any tickets!  Oddly enough, that might actually be the case, because Wink were handing out plenty of freebies, during the promotion.  In which case, ‘myracar79’ has just done the double! Lucky her… ;)

    The ‘Big O’ has been the highlight of Wink’s summer promos. Obviously, a few short espresso’s and a tranquilising donut later, myracar79 is in fine form, and looking forward to a trip to Disney Land with the kids. Without doubt, with four of her own, and her sisters too, it won’t be a holiday any of them forget in a hurry!  She hasn’t worked out exactly what to do with the rest of the money yet, and probably won’t get too much time to think about it on her forthcoming holiday.  Obviously, I’d love to help…. So, myracar79, any space for a little one in your suitcase!!!!?????  Hey! Everyone loves a winner!

  • Come On Honey, Show Me The Money!

    By Lisa West on Wednesday, 30th September 2009

    Everyone loves a tourney!  And Wink Bingo is always there to accommodate.  Tonight, there’s a sweet £25K up for grabs.  No wonder they called it “Share the Money, Honey”!  That kind of money is definitely enough to get the old Bingo buds watering. The general drift of this game is, players earn points when they play the instant games.  Every £10 wagered on any Instant Game earns 1 Tournament Point.  All the instant games are included in the promotion. There’s a few wild card touneys around too, offering the perfect opportunity to clock up some last minute points. Players also get 5 points if they get the biggest win of the day, and 2 points for emailing Wink with a good reason, as to why they would “love to share”.  Be nice everyone, remember, sharing is caring roomies!

    There’s money in the honey pot for the top 100 players of the tournament. To be eligible to take part, players must have made a deposit. That’s it, then just play their favourite instant games.  Show me The Money Honey is a slots tourney, but Wink Bingo have laid on various different tourneys in the past, also the same kind of principle applies.  Play games, collect points, climb the leader board.  Wink are giving away thousands with this promotion, and one hundred players are set to win.  First prize is a storming £5K! Very sweet : )

    If you love tourney games, just like “Share The Money honey”, then Wink Bingo is a good place to be.  Wink has fast become a popular online Bingo website,  and they go a long way to keep their players busy.  Their sign up offer is the best on the net, with a £15 bonus in welcome cash, just for signing up. No Deposit Required.  Plus, a 200% cash match on the first deposit and 50% on all reloads over £10.  As well as some ace promotions, players also get 10% cash back on ALL loses.  With an offer like that, it’s gonna be hard not to give these guys the Wink!

  • Everyone’s Making A Beeline for Beeston

    By Lisa West on Tuesday, 13th October 2009

    We've all heard about the new multimillion pound, revamped, Mecca Bingo club in Beeston.  In Bingo circles up and down the country, it’s become a virtual legend.  And, in a very short space of time.  In fact, there may even be some Bingo fanatics thinking about moving to Nottingham!  Well, if they were ‘tinkering’ with the idea before, Beeston Mecca’s latest ‘shenanigans’ might be enough to edge the odds.  The Beeston Bingo Hall now has ‘smart & arty’, slick and cool waiters, serving up copious cups of frothy cappuccinos. And, as if that wasn’t enough to get their members buzzing, they’re even serving up wine with the fish and chips.  Blimey!

    The Beeston Mecca has been doing very well since it opened; revamped and ready for action.  Of course, the latest figures for the Rank Group, who own Mecca Bingo, have showed revenues are on the up.  Which is quite a remarkable achievement, with the troubles of today’s financial climate.  That just goes to show, it can be done… with a lot of ingenuity and some good solid innovation.  The Beeston Mecca is divided into two separate member areas.  Of course, there’s a gaming room, where as we expect, the ambience is quiet.  The other area is where players can talk freely, without disturbing their fellow members, in the games room.  A great place to 'spread the love' when you had a win too ; )

    According to Ian Burke, CE for the Rank Group, the two areas are the “Key part of the design”.  Without doubt, players can get more than a little ‘testy’, shall we say, if there’s too much chatter going on, while the numbers are called.  So, it seems perfectly logical, to give players a place to go and ‘have a break’.  As Burke points out, at this Mecca Hall members can “play bingo in the traditional way”, as well as have a social area to enjoy with their friends, and “ not be told to be quiet”.  Sorted!

  • Lucky Player Wins £67K At Gala Bingo

    By Lisa West on Thursday, 15th October 2009

    A lucky Gala Bingo player is definitely thanking her lucky stars right now;  After winning over £67K on Gala’s Galaxy Scratch Card game.  Of course, the lady in question is suitably gob smacked, especially when she thinks about the fact she only put down a 25p stake… Incredible! Now, while you saying to yourself, “That never happens to me”, remember!  That’s exactly what this lucky player thought.  In fact, she was so NOT expecting that win, that she didn’t even realise she’d won £67,400.  She actually thought she’d won £400! - 10/10 for observation Roomie! - Quite a lot of difference between those two figures, eh? ; ) And, as this lucky, 49 year old lady from Abergele in Wales stated, “she would have been “happy with that”.  But, why be happy with £400, when you can have another £67!  Okay, can you tell?  I am green with envy!

    Gala Bingo launched the Galaxy Scratch Card Game just months ago, in March of this year. And, it has become one of their most well liked Scratch Cards - although I get the feeling, it’s about to get even more popular!  Each player has two cards for each round.  Fifteen numbers are called, and players can win for a row, a column, or a diagonal line. To win the progressive jackpot, as this player did, all fifteen numbers must appear in gold.  And, without doubt, that signified ‘star spangled’ pot of gold, for this lucky player!  Which just shows you.  It isn’t about how much you bet, or even the odds.  It’s about playing.  If you don’t play, you won’t win.  If you do play, you just might get lucky.  And, a big win like this one, can bring about a lot of changes.  As the say, money gives you options.  So, with £67K in the bank, you would definitely be getting plenty of those!

  • The Luckiest Town In The UK - Or The Most Thrifty!

    By Lisa West on Monday, 26th October 2009

    Gala TV do love their surveys.  Almost as much as me, and I am a total head banger for them! As we all know, Bingo is a pure game of chance, which is why, any survey about luck, has to be useful!  Only a short while ago, Gala TV Bingo carried out a survey, among their winning Bingo players. They discovered that Taureans are the luckiest players of all. However! When it comes to which UK town has the luckiest Bingo players, it’s the people of Harrogate topping the hall of fame. That’s all very interesting, but the real burning question has to be, “why”?

    Gala Bingo TV is keeping mum, about why that might be.  So, it’s a mystery!  Maybe?  Could be there are a lot of Taureans in Harrogate… did anyone check?  Maybe they are ‘Summer Lovin’ people ; ) Apart from that, another thing springs to mind.  The people of Yorkshire are legendary for their “cautious money management”… So, maybe that is more what the survey indicates. A case of extra thrifty wagering, as opposed to extra luck!  Sounds like there’s a been some crafty tactics, underway to me… The question is, how do you get them to part with that very useful data!  

    Have you seen that old ‘scientology’ thing?  Where Robins, and the such like, learn how to get into those complex ‘food maze’ bird boxes?  Then, (for instance…), the Robin in Harrogate who sussed it, passes on that information to his bird buddies.  And, before you know it, the Robins in Lands End are doing it that way.  Well, this might be a good time to have a few Bingo Buddies in Harrogate.  At worst, some of their ‘luck’ might rub off!  I also know for a fact, the people of Yorkshire make very good tea…

  • GUD LUCK ANGEL Hits Home at Sky Bingo!

    By Lisa West on Saturday, 31st October 2009

    Sky Bingo only re-launched back into the UK online Bingo scene, a short while ago, and already, they are paying out some big money.  Nothing like turning up with a big bang ; ) And, it only seems ‘right and proper’, it’s a Gud Luck Angel who has reached the heavenly heights of windom, at Sky Bingo.  "GUDLUCKANGEL30", AKA Kellie ‘O’ in the chat rooms, bagged herself a stomping progressive jackpot prize.  Kellie decided to take a shot at Sky Bingo, after being dazzled by their fab £15 welcome bonus, and enlightened by their UK TV advertising campaign, which have since graced our televisions.

    Kellie won almost £15,500, after just depositing £5 at Sky Bingo. Awesome!  Of course, you can imagine her surprise!  “I never dreamed I would ever win this amount”, Kellie said.  And boy, without doubt, this is one very lucky lady.  Winning on your first day?  Blimey! But it just goes to show, as the Gud Luck Angel herself says, all she deposited was £5.  But Don’t be discouraged Bingo buddies, be encouraged!  You too can sign up for Sky Bingo, deposit a fiver, and enjoy another £15 absolutely gratis.  And, who knows?  You can bet your last pence, even the Gud Luck Angel wasn’t expect THAT much luck!  But hey, I bet she’s not complaining! An neither will you be.  The worst that can happen? You get to enjoy some free Bingo fun.

    The Angel won her big jackpot cash prize, playing Sky Bingo’s ‘Win4All’ game. She was playing with her free cash, when whammy!  She called Bingo! On the 29th number.  Kellie is a mum of three, and the £15K plus is going to bring around some big changes for her, and her family.  For Kellie, this win will be “completely life changing” for them all.  And, like many people who are experiencing difficulties right now, Kellie knows, “it could not have come at a better time”. So go on, be lucky!

  • Family Feud Will Continue

    By Lisa West on Sunday, 8th November 2009

    Litigation may have solved the matter of money, but it has not resolved the rift between Jean Mc Cullagh and her sister Margaret.  Or brought about peace, between her and her two sister in laws, Jesse and Rose.  Two years have passed, since Jean won £1million at her local Mecca Bingo Hall.  And, what should have brought joy, has brought feuding and an  irreparable rift within the family.  According to Jesse, Rose and Margaret; before the game, they had all promised each other to share the money, if any of them were to scoop the jackpot prize.  However, somewhat unfortunately, when the time came, Margaret revealed she had no intentions of sharing.  Refusing outright, to share her big £1million prize pot.  

    This isn’t the first we have witnessed such feuds.  We have seen it all before, many more times than anyone would like.  Maybe these kind of agreements are best left well alone… in the long run. It has taken two years, in this instance, for these women to receive any money.  Other family members have supported the three women, all along.  Confirming, they had all agreed to share any winnings.  Players at their local Bingo Hall in Liverpool, also seemed to back the women’s arguement.  Commenting that Jeans explanation, which was, 'jackpots weren’t included', being dismissed by her fellow players.  

    The million win was at Mecca’s Glasgow Bingo hall, located in the forge shopping centre.    According to Jesse, Rose and Margaret, they are finally getting,  ‘their rightful share of the winnings’, after releasing a family statement, once they had received their cheques.  Jean and hubby John are no longer part of the family.  And, naturally, the family are angry that this ever came about.  And, as they understand and commented, there have been “no winners here”.  Also confirming in their statement, the damage is irreparable; “Jean and John have to deal with the loss of the family”.

Sky Bingo are offering a very generous sign up offer at the moment.  Just deposit £5 and they will give you £15.  At 2p a ticket that’s a lot of free chances to win some BIG money.

  • Mecca Bingo - The Land Of The Jackpot Winner

    By Lisa West on Tuesday, 24th November 2009

    Maybe it was the shock news that Mecca Bingo were not in the running, for the 2010 Bingo Operator Of The Year.  Who knows?  But just lately, they have been pulling out all the jackpot stops and paying out some serious £££££ in jackpot prizes.  As you may well know, the countdown is on at Mecca Bingo.  There’s currently a £130K in jackpots up for grabs, with a guaranteed single jackpot winner of £50K.Before November 30th - So get a move on!  New players get a 100% cash match bonus on any deposit between £5 and £50.  And with all these jackpots flying around, now’s definitely a good time to register.

    Even if you miss out on this months big £50 jackpot, I wouldn’t worry too much ; )  Mecca Bingo are never short of a new one!  And remember, no matter what the game, you have just as much chance as the next person… unless you believe the hype….. In which case, being a Taurus will give you the advantage ; )  Only last week Mecca Bingo paid out an incredible £30K, to one lucky Mecca member on their Cleopatra’s Chest slot game. But whether she is a Taurus, nobody knows....

    The £30K jackpot was won by single mum of one, Bingolinal.  Being out of work and on a budget, she had to cut down on her trips to the local Mecca Bingo Hall. As have many people of late… whether unemployed, single, an unemployed and single mum, working, or working parents … Everyone is feeling the pinch. Almost certainly, a lot to do with why online Bingo has become such a huge success.  No childcare fees, no transport costs, and some huge jackpots to boot.  Sounds like a winning combination, and it is!  Mecca Bingo online have some of the biggest jackpots available.. And people are winning.  And all you need to do for a chance to win too?   Just… come play!

  • 888Ladies Tourney Winner Gets The X Factor

    By Lisa West on Monday, 7th December 2009

    The X Factor has become a huge hit in the UK.  Both the online game and of course, the ITV show being legendary.  Many online bingo operators have introduced some kind of ‘special promotion’, to launch the game on their site.  Each making it ‘their own’, in one way or another. The 888Ladies were among those operators, holding an X Factor Tournament with two VIP tickets to the show up for grabs.  As well as a whole pile of other goodies!

    As you can imagine, the chance to bag two VIP tickets caused quite a stir among 888 Roomies.  Since October the 888Ladies have given away a fab prize every week.  December 3rd saw the end of the promotion and so the ‘Grand Finale’!  The top 100players of the tournament were entered into a draw, but only ONE could walk away with the top prize.  And that lucky player was Jussy69.…. A player who that day, turned out to be THE one in a hundred!  

    Not only will Jessy69 from the North West be hobnobbing with celebrities and such like… they will also be staying at the Cumberland 5 star luxury hotel in London, where a chauffeured Mercedes will be whisking them away to the X Factor studios.  Not only will they get to meet some of the stars of the show, they also get to enjoy it from VIP seats.  Talk about a top treat!

    The excitement is far from over at the 888Ladies.  It’s Christmas!!! And believe me when I tell you, the 888Ladies are top of the tree, with regards generosity!  There’s a tonne of gifts and goodies that MUST be won.  Including a BIG Christmas jackpot prize game with a VERY shiny and new Fiat convertible up for grabs.   Yo Ho Ho!!!  Definitely ; )

  • Plenty Of Jackpot Joy Around This Christmas!

    By Lisa West on Wednesday, 16th December 2009

    Christmas has come early for Jackpot Joy member  Lucky “Leonard” - bagging himself a whopping £16,722.  Lucky Leonard was playing Jackpot Joy’s ‘Price is Right’ Bingo when he scooped the progressive jackpot; “I realised I’d won the game jackpot straight away, but I didn’t know I’d taken the progressive jackpot as well!” Leonard said.  And boy, was he is for a big surprise!  “I saw my name come up on the screen, then the amount come up and that was what took my breath away” - You can say that again!  Sixteen grand and some? Nuff to leave even the most seasoned bingo head speechless!

    This big win will definitely set Leonard on the right track for celebrating this Christmas with a BIG Bang!  Leonard was with his girlfriend when he bagged the jackpot prize.  So what was her reaction?  “ My girlfriend just started screaming” said Leonard… Well, at least one of them wasn’t left in stunned silence!  The first thing on their list of things to do was a holiday, and they didn’t waste any time getting it booked!  So this happy couple will be having the time of their lives this Christmas, thanks to Jackpot Joy.  Literally!  

    It’s great to see a young couple getting a lucky break.  Leonard’s girlfriend is taking her driving test next month, and now has all the incentive she needs to pass.  With her generous guy offering to put some in the kitty towards her first car.  Leonard was having a great time playing Price is Right Bingo, when he was lucky enough to win a fortune.  And so could you be.  New members get a 100% cash match on the first deposit too, and with all the great promotions and jackpots up for grabs this festive season… well worth investing a tenner!

  • Gala Bingo - Loving It!?

    By Lisa West on Thursday, 31st December 2009

    If you found yourself under the mistletoe alone this New Year, then it could be because you were looking for Mr Right in the wrong place!  LOL ; ) Avid online bingo fan Catherine Whitehead (38) hit the real jackpot when she met Julian Brook (46) playing at Gala Bingo online.  Things began with a “good luck” and a friendly hello… but before they knew it, the two were falling for each other…. And now?  Well, mum’s off to buy a new hat!

    When the two made the decision to play at Gala Bingo, you can guarantee they didn’t have a new hubby or wife in mind…  Maybe dreams of a big jackpot… new car… but new hubby? A wife???  I think probably not!  Catherine is from Preston, and Julian is from Hull, 120 miles away.  They may or may not have met up ordinarily - I’m not even going to go into all that “fate” stuff!!!  But what is for sure… it’s amazing what a friendly exchange of “good luck” can lead to!!!  And in this case, looks like it’s all ‘good things’…

    Gala Bingo are one of the UK’s leading operators.  Catherine became ill and found herself unable to visit her local club.  This is why she initially changed her bingo playing habits to online.  But why choose between the local club and online?  Enjoy the best of both worlds!  With all the bargain bingo around, it doesn’t cost a lot to have fun at Gala Bingo.    

    Between nine o’ clock in the morning until midnight you can play free bingo at Gala online.  ONE HUNDRED FREE GAMES with £100 & £150 cash jackpots up for grabs each and every day… which means?  Gala Bingo are paying out more than £10K each week in free play prize money alone.  Amazing what you can get for free these days!  And you never know… make the most of those chat rooms and you might be get the bingo bonus of a lifetime….
