Bingo Reviews: March 2008 Archives

First things first, the name of this online bingo site - Bingo Friends, what a great name! For me personally I've made loads of mates playing online bingo, most of which I have met in the flesh. 

It's a little confusing for me, there is SkyBingo and Bingo Sky yet they are two seperate sites. Bingo Sky has both a £ and a $ site both offer a 20 £/$ free welcome bonus, no deposit required.

Registration was easy enough with no credit card details required to receive the free bingo money, but ensure you use a valid email address as you will need to activate the account in order for your bonus to be added.

Another online bingo site that is part of the huge network of sites on the 888 Holdings (Globalcom) software platform is Biggest Bingo and with all skins of this network registration is really simple. As soon as you validate your account you will be credited with 1000 loyalty points which can be redeem for £1's worth of free bingo.

Wink Bingo only launched in February this year and already is seems to be quite a hit with many online bingo players. Since I started playing online bingo I have seen many bingo sites launch and simply just attract the bonus hunters, you know the people I mean, take the free welcome bonuses and run. Wink Bingo however seem to have built a good player base in a short space of time.

 

Bingo/Keno is and easy fromat for Mobile devices and this is why Total Bet have chosen it as an instant win format. To play the service all you need to do is take either a randomly selected or choose a card then daub off the numbers that match the numbers that are drawn at random. It's easy to play although a tad lonley as a format.

What never ceases to amaze me about online bingo is how everything changes so quickly in this industry. Many a time I have reviewed an online bingo site only to return a week later and their deposit bonus or welcome bonus has changed. In some cases even the software has been upgraded.

So to this end, the following list is of all the sites I have reviewed so far, and the most up to date welcome bonuses and deposit offers.

One of the most interactive bingo software platforms has to be the LeapFrog Gaming package, it's the only platform where you are actually a character walking around a 3D world.

Bingo Cafe uses this software and despite the fact you have to download the software and install to your PC, from a personal point of view, I really enjoyed playing at this site.

Don't be mistaken, this online bingo site has nothing to with one of London's favourite radio stations Capital Radio although it's an easy mistake to make. After all, why would someone name their bingo site after a "building in which a state legislative body meets" - doesn't really conjure up images of fun does it?

Angel Bingo is another site run by St Minver on the Parley Entertainment software and offers all new players a whopping £1 welcome bonus - dont get crushed in the stampede of bonus hunters now will you!

Registration to the site is easy enough but to get your free £1 ensure that you use a valid email address as unlike Foxy Bingo, Angel Bingo only instantly credits you 10p, the rest is added once you validate your account through the email link.

Platinum Play is name well known in the online casino world and it's not surprising that they have branched out into online bingo. This is only the second bingo site that I have come across using the Microgaming software platform, the other being Dream Bingo.

I'm not a huge fan of having to download software in order to play online bingo so usually avoid the sites that use the PlayTech software but Ruby Bingo also offer you the chance to use a flash version of the game which means you do not have to download the software.

Blackpool Club Bingo managed the impossible today, they lured me away from Foxy Bingo with a no deposit required welcome bonus of £21, call me a bonus hunter if you will but I had to try it out.

I haven't previously written a review for any of the online bingo sites that use the Cozy Bingo software, so this is a first for me. A friend pointed me in the House of Bingo's direction merely because they offer £20 free when you register and provide your credit/debit card details. I haven't seen the site advertised anywhere online as yet, unlike sites like Foxy Bingo and Think Bingo.

Unlike other online bingo sites on the Parabol Gaming platform, Violet Bingo and Bella Bingo, Maria Bingo quite obviously wants to see more UK players at it's site. This is obvious as soon as you complete your registration and make your way to the room lobby - the other two sites offer 2 rooms for GBP players, Maria Bingo offers 4.

Bella Bingo, when I first saw the name I thought it was going to be another online bingo site run by a british magazine. It isn't - firstly the site isnt powered by Jackpot Joy but Parabol Gaming, a platform I had never heard of before I did the Violet Bingo review.

If you enter the code that shows above the registration form you will receive £5 free.
