Red Bus Bingo changes welcome bonus

With so many online bingo sites available to choose from on the internet it’s hard to keep up with all the changes happening at many brands. The latest news is that Red Bus Bingo changes their welcome bonus for new players. Originally this brand didn’t offer any free money to trial the site but boasted a 250% cash match bonus on first deposits. Now new players can ‘try before they buy’ with £2 free.

The bonus is credited to their account upon completion of the registration process at Red Bus Bingo.

When asked how long this promotion would continue at Red Bus Bingo the response was that it would be ‘around until at least December’. The decision as to whether it continues past this date will be at the management’s discretion, dependent on how well this new welcome bonus performs.

In addition to the £2 free now available from Red Bus Bingo new players will also get a free scratch card to determine the cash match bonus they receive on their first deposit. You could win between 200% and a massive 2000%. We think the latter is extortionate and ultimately such a big deposit bonus will be lost for many players who get lucky and choose to withdraw any winnings.

Whilst we like the first part of the promotion, the £2 free bingo for new players, we think that Red Bus Bingo should stick to a standard deposit bonus for new players and lose the gimmicky scratch card. Bingo players the world over are getting wiser and are likely to have a similar few to us about a 2000% cash match bonus.
