Buckingham Bingo fined
As well as Buckingham Bingo being fined they were also ordered to pay costs of £2,006.32 taking the cost of not making the improvements to £12,006.32. A costly misjudgement in my opinion as surely making the improvements at the Buckingham Bingo club would have cost far less.
The improvements were ordered after a male employee slipped when he was cleaning kitchen equipment and seriously burnt his arm yet the Buckingham Bingo club had still not made the improvements after nine months. Salford City Council had revisited the club only to be disappointed by the standards even though Buckingham Bingo had promised to improve staff awareness and training for Risk Assessments after the incident in which an employee was burnt.
Buckingham Bingo have recently renamed their online bingo site to Bucky Bingo and we have seen a cheesy advert on our television screens. Bucky Casino however offer a rather disturbing image and voiceover when you visit their home page; an animated female character saying "ohhhh me flipping knickers are murdering me!". What this has to do with casinos I have no idea but each to their own.
