  • Viva Mexico! It's as Easy as ABC

    By Lisa West on Monday, 3rd August 2009

    Fancy a cruise on the Mexican Riviera?  Who wouldn’t!?  Well, you’d better get down to ABC Bingo, before August 25th.  If you haven’t signed up yet, right now you can get twenty Free Bingo Games, without having to spend a penny.. (although you might feel the urge with all the excitement going on - lol!)  The cruise includes flights and seven nights on the Carnival Cruise Line's SPLENDOR.  All meals are included, travel expenses and entertainment.  This is an absolutely incredible prize for one lucky player out there.  

    The winner is chosen by a prize draw, and players earn entry to the draw by playing Bingo and referring friends.  At ABC Bingo, the minimum deposit is £5, but you do not need to hand over any cash to receive the twenty Free Bingo Games.  On your first deposit, they will give you a 100% cash match bonus, up to £100.  In addition, they are giving all their newly registered players a 50% bonus on reloads, between twenty and one hundred pounds.  That’s a lot of Free Bingo Games available, on a permanent basis.  

    ABC Bingo have been around a while now, since 2006 in fact.  They are not one of the big Jackpot Bingo websites, but they are a good place for Prize Bingo.  All sorts of gadgets and goodies up for grabs in their weekly and monthly promotions.  The Mexican Bingo cruise promotion ends on August 25th.  However, they're sure to come up with something just as exciting next month!  There’s also European flights up for grabs, and a £500 Summer Sun holiday every other Thursday.  At the minute, it’s all about getting some ‘fun in the sun’ with ABC Bingo, and Bingo of course!  So, get along to ABC now, and you could be cruising the Mexican Riviera and playing Bingo at the same time.  How’s that for the best of both worlds?

  • It's a Big Bright Bingoday for Girls!

    By Lisa West on Saturday, 1st August 2009

    Bingoday first launched into the world of Online Bingo in 2006.  Earlier this year, they re-launched a new site using the popular ‘Playtech’ Software.  If you haven’t tried out the new site yet, right now they will give you a 200% Bonus on your first deposit.  You can make a minimum £10 deposit, but you won’t be getting any bonuses!  To qualify for the 200%, a minimum deposit of £20 must be made.  That is quite high, compared to a lot of sites, but the big, progressive jackpot Bingo Games are just to much to pass up!

    Bingoday also give players 25% on reloads, up to a maximum of £100.  Players who were registered for the old site will have to sign up again.  However, that’s not so bad because there’s plenty of bonuses available for your trouble.  Bingoday has always been a popular Online Bingo website, so this offer probably won’t stay around for long.  Without doubt, if are thinking about giving them a try, now’s probably the time.  

    One thing that really stands out about Bingoday, is the design.  It just oozes the feeling of ‘girlie community having fun’, but in a very sophisticated way!  The promotions and prizes are geared to girlies, like spa treatments and shopping trips.  So there’s loads of great prizes on offer.  Chatrooms are 24/7, and there are always a few ‘little extras’ on offer here.  They have four versions of the 75 and 90Ball Bingo Games on offer, and tickets start at 2p. Bargain!

    Another thing that’s good about Bingoday?  It makes a very pleasant change to see something a little different!  I don’t know how many of these ‘so called’, ‘new’ Bingo websites are mirror copies of the last one, that operator launched.  But it’s too many…. With all the money these guys are raking in, you’d think they’d make a bit more effort to keep their players happy.  It’s little more than we deserve!

    Graham is no stranger to our the British public, or their TV screens.  He has been giving people love and lifestyle advice for almost twenty years, and is well known for his popular ITV show, ‘Looking for Love’.  Currently, Graham is delivering love advice to the UK on his late night ‘Love Show’, for BBC’s Radio Bristol.  For Gala’s TV Online Bingo Club he will be doling out the bingo numbers, as well as love advice.  Players will be able to interact with the ‘love’ly Graham, during the Live Bingo Show, via text and email.  Looks like this is one premier that won’t soon be forgotten!

    Gala Bingo have definitely wooed a hot number this time.  Graham Torrington is an award winning presenter.  Anyone who tunes into the Gala Bingo TV Games will know, the celebrity shows bring in big audiences for Gala.  The new, ‘Don’t you Just Love Friday’, looks set to do the same, with a different guest caller scheduled every week.  Some of the UK’s favourite faces being in the line up.  As usual, you will find the new show on Sky and Freesat 9channel 861).  In addition to being linked via video stream to Gala’s Online Bingo website.  Why join in the fun?  You never know, maybe you’ll get lucky in love and money!!!

  • Grace Yourselves!

    By Lisa West on Wednesday, 29th July 2009

    Looks like the sale of Cashcade isn’t going to get in the way of business!  Introducing their latest offering, Grace Bingo.  This new Bingo website has all the ‘magic ingredients’, that seems essential to success, in the world of Online Bingo.  Whether it will make to the heights of Cashcade’s biggest brands, Cheeky and Foxy, we will all have to wait and see.  However, it looks like they are definitely in for the penny, and in for the pound!

    The design of Graces Bingo is a bit disappointing.  You definitely get the feeling you’ve been here before!  Very pink, and, I would even go as far to say, boring..  However, it’s not really about how good the wallpaper is, it’s about the BINGO!!  So, what exactly is Grace offering their new players right now?  Graces Bingo offers Free Bingo, twelve hours a day, every day, from 10.15am.  However, they aren’t giving newcomers any Free Bingo cash.  You will have to deposit a tenner, to try the site out.  However, they will ‘grace’ you with a free £30 bonus.  

    If anyone decides to deposit again, Graces Bingo will reward them with a 100% deposit, up to a maximum of £150.  In addition to that, players give 50% on all reloads after that.  So, there’s plenty of Free Bingo games to be had for your money.  Not all the new Online Bingo operators have a loyalty scheme, despite the fact they know this keeps the players happy.  Seems like there’s no flies on Grace, coz she has already pledged to reward loyal players.  There is nothing astounding or wowy about Cascade’s newest addition.  It is just a good, all round, Online Bingo site that offers a reasonable range of Bingo and side games.  However, if you’ve got a spare tenner, why not give it a go.  The bonuses are worth it!

  • £20 Free No Deposit Bonus at Bingo Scotland!

    By Lisa West on Tuesday, 28th July 2009

    As I know there’s no-one who can refuse a Free No Deposit Bonus!  So I thought I’d let you know about this one.  Just in case anyone missed it!  At a time when the good old Free No Deposit Bonus is becoming a bit thin on the ground, Bingo Scotland has generously come to the rescue.  Right now, all newly registered players can help themselves to a big, fat, £20 Deposit.  Without having to had over a single penny.  Like many of the Online Bingo websites with this offer, a credit or debit card has to be registered.  But I guess, that’s not a lot to ask… That is, as long as you don’t use an alternative payment method, because you don't actually have a credit or debit card.  

    Bingo Scotland are one of the leading Online Bingo websites, and have two sister sites, Little Big Bingo and Think Bingo.  They haven’t had a Free No Deposit Bingo Bonus before.  This is a first for Bingo Scotland, and who knows how long it will be around.  It seems likely it’s all part of their new promotional ‘push’.  So, odds are, when that’s over so might the Free £20 be.  With offers like these, it is always best to get in there quick.  

    With a name like Bingo Scotland, you might think this Online Bingo website is only for those who live there.  Not so, although the site is very ‘Scottish’ looking…and sounding!   With it’s blue tartan background and games like “True Blue” and the  “Scot Pot”.  Bingo Scotland has the 90Ball and 75Ball Bingo games and plenty of jackpots up for grabs.  However, they do not offer any casinos, instants or any other side games.  This is a pure bred, all Bingo website!  You can’t win any prizes or cash with the Free No Deposit Bingo money.  But you can have a lot of fun!

  • Jackpot Joy - Staying Ahead of the Competition.

    By Lisa West on Monday, 27th July 2009

    Jackpot Joy have always been big in the world of Online Bingo.  However, it seems they just aren’t big enough!  It was announced, not so long ago, that Jackpot Joy had dropped their existing advertising agency, and decided to look elsewhere.  Of course, there were a lot of agencies hoping to bag this highly lucrative contract.  No doubt, prepared to claw each others eyes out in the process!  However, in the end, it came down to a head to head between Campbell Lace Beta, and Publicis.  It has now been confirmed, Campbell Lace Beta are Jackpot Joy’s new Bingo Marketing Agency. 

    Campbell Lace Beta were up against some tough competition.  But at least that proves, they can handle it!  And they will need to…  The UK Online Bingo Industry is worth millions.  Jackpot Joy alone have paid OUT more than £75Million in prizes over the last twelve months.  They were first launched in 2002, and since then, Jackpot Joy have become one of the top sites in the UK.  Hordes of players already login regularly to play, but Jackpot Bingo bosses are hoping that Campbell Lace Beta will get them even more.  The Online Bingo Industry is fiercely competitive, and even with a already established brand name, like Jackpot Joy, Campbell Lace will have their work cut out.

    Campbell Lace are the new kids on the block.  They haven’t even been around for a year yet!  However, they have already bagged themselves two of the most lucrative contracts around, and up for grabs this year.  It was only only a week ago when Thomas Cook were signing them up.  In barely time to let the ink dry, they went on to sign with Jackpot Joy. Without doubt, it has been quite a week for Gary Lace and Robert Campbell.  The two guys who launched the company.  It will be interesting to see what they come up with.  Hopefully!

  • Tombola are officially the most visited UK Online Bingo Website!

    By Lisa West on Sunday, 26th July 2009

    It’s official!  Tombola Bingo is the most visited UK Online Bingo website.  Can’t help wondering, how the Sun Bingo head honchos are taking the news.  Of course, you have to take into account, when they split from Tombola, about a year ago now, it was Tombola who kept all the members.  There has been a lot of hearsay to date, with regards to who is actually the busiest UK Online Bingo website.  Although a lot of people in the industry already thought Tombola Bingo was top, now, it has been proved that’s true.  The research was carried out by Hitwise, so it'is fairly conclusive and comprehensive.  

    Tombola Bingo have scheduled a BIG seven MILLION pound promotional push for next month. No doubt, in a bid to ensure they don’t lose that very notable title!  So, what makes Tombola the most logged into UK Online Bingo website?  There’s no doubt about it, they do dosh out a mountain of cash every week.  THREE MILLION in fact!  If you haven’t signed up yet, right now Tombola are offering a 100% Cash match on the first deposit.  Sorry… no free cash without handing over some cash!  The minimum deposit is £10, and the maximum cash match you’ll get is £25.  Seen better, but it’s not bad!

    A lot of people like the fact that the games at Tombola Bingo are exclusive.  They don’t use anyone the software of anyone else, and since the split with the Sun Bingo, neither does anyone else use theirs!  Tombola also keep the regulars happy by keeping their promotions fresh and frequent.  Adding new games on a regular basis.  With more than forty Chat rooms available, Chat Games are BIG at Tombola.  This is an Online Bingo website that is renowned for their lively Bingo community.  No doubt, another reason why they have become the most visited UK Online Bingo website!

  • Cashcade SOLD for £96 Million!

    By Lisa West on Saturday, 25th July 2009

    When 888 Bingo confirmed they would not be buying Cashcade, the whole Bingo Industry began buzzing with speculation.  So who would be taking over Cashcade?  There were a lot of people putting their money on Party gaming, and as it turns out, they were completely right to do so.  Cashcade are the parent company of several big name Online Bingo websites, which includes the legendary Mr Foxy Bingo and the Queen of Free Bingo, Miss Cheeky.  Apparently, 888 pulled out of the deal because they were not willing to pay the huge asking price for Cashcade.  Seems no-one was exaggerating, because PartyGaming had to cough up just short of £96Million, to seal the deal.  An absolutely incredible amount.  

    Both Cashcade and PartyGaming are said to be very happy with the deal.  But Independent News & Media are probably the most relieved of all.  They hold 16% of Cashcade and have been having a few financial problems of late.  Without doubt, this deal should be making their money troubles a thing of the past!  The Managing Director for Cashcade stated that this had provided a “substantial opportunity” for them, within the Online Bingo Industry.  Jim Ryan, the PartyGaming Chief Executive was also very positive about the future.  He stated that this had provided the company with “an excellent platform to build a meaningful share of the, one and a half billion dollar, global online Bingo market."

    Cashcade were established in 1999, and have achieved a lot since then.  Becoming one of the leading Online Bingo operators in the UK. Together, with Party Gaming, they seem destined to dominate.  It is estimated that people will be spending around $2.5Billion, playing Online Bingo within the next three years.  Almost thirty percent of global figures is accounted for within the UK market.  Well above any other country.  Seems us Brits just love to play Bingo.  Was there ever any doubt?

  • The Sun Bingo Prize Bonanza!!!

    By Lisa West on Friday, 24th July 2009

    WOW!!  Sun Bingo really know how to put on a promotion.  Since 2006, the Sun has coughed up more than ONE HUNDRED MILLION in cash and prizes.  Now, to celebrate that achievement, they have ONE HUNDRED FIAT PANDA CARS up for grabs.  That’s going to make a lot of Online Bingo players happy.  Well, one hundred of them at least!  The new promotion started on the 17th of July, and is running until September 27th.  Every day, one lucky winner will be driving off in a new car.  Apparently, all winners will have to cough up for their own insurance, which seems a little tight!!!  But hey, I bet none of them will be complaining.  Small price to pay!

    To enter in to the daily prize draw, players must spend at least £2 on Sun Bingo, or £10 on the slots, in one day.   Players who make a deposit and play the minimum £2, get two entries into the draw.  If you haven’t registered yet, they will also give new players an extra entry into the draw.  That means, new players can get up to three entries in just one day.  Another good reason to get registered, if you haven’t already.  Apparently, some days, more cars will be up for grabs.  So well worth keeping you eye on the ball (or your hands on the steering wheel!), as they say.

    Sun Bingo did use the Tombola software, before the powers that be decided to change over to Gamesy.  It wasn’t that the Tombola Software wasn’t good - we all know that Tombola has gone from strength to strength over the last twelve months.  It was just about control.  Sun Bingo wanted to ‘be alone’, as that lady so famously said. Today, Sun Bingo have become one of the leading Online Bingo websites around.
