WeLuvBingo is one of the internet bingo sites whose name always reminds me of my school days - it's the Luv part of the name that does it - how many times did I scrawl that on one of my school book covers?

Do you remember I told you recently that whilst attending the Foxy Bingo Bruges cruise the Foxmeister was foxnapped?

The beginning of another week brings the weekly online bingo top ten countdown. No one in their right mind looks forward to a Monday morning because it means back to work but I dread it more than most simply because it usually means another land slide victory for "the boss" in the online bingo top ten. I hope you are all wishing me well and hoping that this week sees me triumphant!

Monday morning and yet another online bingo site is making an appearance in my letter box; this time it's the turn of Platinum Play Bingo. What is interesting about the Platinum Play Bingo promotion mail is the pop out scratch card and coin to scratch with. Ok it's only a plastic circular disc but little things please little minds and all that.
Continue reading Platinum Play Bingo promotional mail.

Today I received an email from one of the online bingo sites using the Parlay Entertainment bingo software to tell me they had finished their upgrade to the new version. Parlay Bingo Version 5 replaces the older version 4 so I was quite keen to see what the newer version had to offer above the older version. In all honesty there doesn't seem to be that much difference.
Continue reading Parlay Bingo Version 5.

What's with the slogan on the Ladbrokes Bingo adverts? Go Bingo? It reminds me of the Ricky Lake chant - Go Ricky Go Ricky. Have you noticed it when you watch the new zorbing Ladbrokes Bingo advert? I don't get the relevance really, am I missing something maybe? Where should bingo go exactly? Or is it telling you to go play bingo?
Continue reading Go Bingo.
123bingoonline is the new name for 123Bingo who I believe had their web page seized in the crack down of online bingo sites in the US. Although this isn't what the email says that I received from 123 Bingo. In it they tell me about an issue with the "gateway" to their site and how they want to bring me the best gaming experience possible. For a start I would suggest having a site that plays in pounds and not dollars!
Continue reading 123bingoonline.
What is it with all the magazines launching online bingo sites powered by JackpotJoy? Recently I came across an advert in Real People for their online bingo site but why would players choose this site over the founding site of JackpotJoy? It's a question I ask every time I see one of the woman's magazines advertising their own bingo site. RPBingo offers nothing more or less than JackpotJoy or any of the other sites powered by it.

Free bingo is coming to yet another on new site but it isn't about a welcome bonus or free money when you deposit; it's simply about playing bingo for free at SkillPod Bingo.

I was reading the Times yesterday, not my usual choice of newspaper but the only one available in McDonalds, when I came across an article about the Queen and Prince Phillip visiting the Google HQ. A small section at the bottom of the article was about Google lifting the ban on gambling adverts.

Continue reading Google to allow gambling ads.
I was just checking through some of the old reviews here on onlinebingo.net when I realised that the Sun Bingo review is now out of date.

A new feature at 888ladies is monthly horoscopes written by none other than the famous astrologer Russell Grant. Bizarre really as Russell Grant actually has his own bingo site so why would he be putting his name at 888ladies? Maybe he has asked for a link back? Anyway I thought it would be interesting to take a quick look at the horoscopes at 888ladies for "The Boss" and I.

Rumour has it that Cashcade are launching Online Bingo Partners as the new name for its affiliate section. According to my sources, and they are sometimes a little flaky so don't take my word as gospel, the new section of the already existing affiliate scheme has been renamed to make the whole system more inclusive. I quite like the new name; Online Bingo Partners gives the impression that you are valued as a Foxy Bingo affiliate and it's most definitely the right impression.

Many online bingo sites have chat as part of their bingo rooms; in fact I don't know of one that doesn't. Did you know that there is a certain bingo chat etiquette you should follow when participating in chat?

They are trailblazing with an industry beating offer - I am frankly surprised that Virtue Fusion have offered to accept such a large amount of bonus on their system as such large cash incentives have a pretty negative effect in terms of bonus abusers on a new community of bingo players. They are clearly going for a pan European push judging by their URL's.
Continue reading 365Bingo - £10 Free plus 200 percent bonus WOW.
