Bingos

Online bingo rooms which have a celebrity element are nothing new – many sites arrange for celebrities to drop in to chat with players on certain nights. But few use celebrity quite as centrally as Bingos.co.uk. As soon as you launch the home page you are greeted by the smiling face and eternally chirpy voice of Kerry Katona (who many people will still recognise as Kerry McFadden). The home page itself is designed with a bright orange scheme that is cheerful and well laid out, with the main menu running neatly down the left hand side and a login section at the top right allowing instant access for existing members.

If you aren’t an existing member then you will be pleased to hear that registering takes just a couple of minutes, and involves little more than entering your name, address, date of birth and your payment details to make your first deposit. That done, you can progress to the gaming area.

The bingo games themselves are very nicely done. There are four rooms to choose from, and each has a progressive jackpot as well as payouts for the usual line, two lines and full house. Tickets range from 10p to 50p, depending on the bingo room you choose to play, and you can buy up to 48 tickets for any single game. Obviously, with that many tickets allowed, an auto daub feature is essential, and this one even lets you choose the colour and shape of your daub to personalise things.

The numbers are called by none other than Kerry Katona, and although her voice takes a bit of getting used to from a calling perspective, her enthusiasm is impossible to dispute. Unfortunately, that’s as extensive as it gets as far as sound effects are concerned, and so the silence between games is all but deafening. Fortunately, you never have to wait more than a couple of minutes for the next one to start, but a little ambient music would still have been nice.

Chat here is friendly and lively, and because this site hosts regular bingo tournaments, players tend to be loyal to it. This is good for making regular friends, and chatting to the same familiar group when you play is a nice experience. However, even first time visitors won’t feel left out as the hosts are welcoming and helpful and all a newbie has to do to make friends is start chatting!

There are other games available at this site, including table games such as blackjack and roulette and a good array of slot and video poker machines. Because these appear in pop-up windows, you may need to adjust the size and position of the windows on screen so that you don’t fully obscure the main bingo session. That apart, the games themselves are enjoyable and nicely presented.

All told, this is a very decent site, and one that you will definitely want to visit more than once.
