If you are a fan of Gala Bingo then you probably already know about their amazing game of bingo that they played on top of Mount Everest. If not then you are probably wondering what I am talking about. The Gala Bingo team have just climbed Mount Everest in aid of charity and to raise much needed funds for Sue Ryder Care. 25 members of Gala Bingo in total climbed the 17,500 feet for this charity event and to play the world’s highest ever bingo game. The great news is that they managed to raise more money than they set a target for and they also managed to create a world record too.

The Gala Bingo team braved the odds and the weather all in the name of charity and their goal target for this even was £100,000 which they passed. The Chief Executive of Sue Ryder Care, Paul Woodward stated that the Gala Team fundraising efforts were amazing and he expressed gratitude to everyone who took part in this amazing event. Their courage and bravery was fantastic and they should all be really proud of themselves. I couldn’t agree more with Mr. Woodward and I think everyone that took part is amazing. The money that has been raised will go to help support the work that the Sue Ryder Care does and they help so many people that live with debilitating conditions such as Cancer, Stroke, Multiple Sclerosis and brain injuries.

The Gala Bingo Team have done really well and it is no wonder that they are proud of their achievements and they have also set a world record too. The money that has been raised will do a lot of great work and the funds are really appreciated.

There are a number of other online bingo websites that do charity work and help support some really worthwhile causes and if you play for one of these online bingo websites then you can help to do your bit too by supporting any of the charity events that they hold. Charities really do help people and your support means everything. What do you think of online bingo websites supporting charities and holding charity events? Are they just a publicity stunt or a real helping hand?

Microgaming is one of the largest online gaming software providers and JackpotCity Bingo has just joined their bingo network.  According to news reports Jackpot City Bingo will be using Microgaming’s bingo software on their website and this will mean some great new changes for their online bingo players.  By joining the network players on JackpotCity Bingo will be able to offer their players some great new progressive jackpots and even bigger online bingo prize funds too.  Some of the other online casinos that already use Microgaming software include the JackpotCity Casino and the Gaming Club.

The new Microgaming software will see some great new enhancements to the Jackpot City Bingo website and this includes bigger prizes and some fantastic side games too.  Another great new feature will be the introduction of Swedish 75 ball bingo another bingo variation and this variation is the first of its kind to hit the Microgaming network.

Being part of the an online bingo network is great and not just for the online bingo website.  As part of a bingo network it means that players get to take home a lot more cash and there are some huge progressive jackpots that run across these networked websites too.  These progressive jackpots will feature on the Jackpot City Bingo website and I can’t wait to see what the prize amounts will be.

Jackpot City Bingo are doing their best to make their online bingo website the best and ensure that their players get the most fun and excitement.  This is actually necessary especially when you consider the number of new online bingo websites cropping up each month.  Competition is fierce and if online bingo websites want to survive they need to make sure that their websites encourage players to join and also keep players coming back.  Progressive jackpots and great online bingo game prizes are definitely a way to do this and by joining Microgaming Jackpot City Bingo should be able to do this.

Microgaming have a really good reputation and they also have some great online gambling games to offer players too.  There should be some really great things coming from Jackpot City Bingo in the near future and I can’t wait to see what they have to offer their members.

We all know how popular large jackpot prize games are on online bingo website but what happens when you can’t log in to play the jackpot game? This is where pre purchase online bingo games come in handy. This is where you buy your tickets in advance and even if you can be there when the prize game takes place you tickets are still used in the game and you can still win the jackpot. Once you buy your tickets for the game they are automatically included in the game and if you win the prize is automatically credited into your online bingo account. This is great for online bingo players who lead hectic lives and just can’t be there for all the big jackpot games.

There are a number of online bingo websites that allow players to pre purchase their online bingo game tickets and in today’s post I want to mention Think Bingo and Cheeky Bingo as both of these websites have some great jackpot games that have the pre purchase facility. Think Bingo has a complete weekend of pre purchase games this weekend and the jackpots for these games are between £1,000 and £2,000 so even if you have a very busy weekend planned you can buy your tickets in advance and still be in with a chance of winning. It is not just cash that is up for grabs at Think Bingo this weekend and you can pre purchase tickets for games that have great prizes too. Some of these prizes include LCD TVs, Laptops, home theatre systems and digital camcorders too. The pre purchase games schedule can be found on the Think Bingo website.

Cheeky Bingo is the other online bingo website that has some great pre purchase prizes up for grabs. They currently have a guaranteed jackpot game with a prize of £5,000 that you can pre purchase tickets for and this game is played every Friday. They also have a selection of pre purchase games where you can win £50 too. All the details can be found on the Cheeky Bingo website and don’t forget to check if there is a maximum number of tickets that you can buy too.

Pre purchase games are great when you don’t have time to log in and play your favourite online bingo games and they are becoming really popular too. You do need to make sure that you check to see if there is a minimum or maximum amount of tickets that you can pre buy for each game.

Mecca Bingo have just awarded their huge £100,000 jackpot prize to one lucky player.  This lucky player goes by the user name dreamer80 and they won this amazing cash prize by getting a full house in under 35 calls.

Last week Mecca Bingo hit the TV screen with their brand new advert that featured their lucky pink boxes and their great £50 free play offer.  To mark the launch of their new advert they also introduced this huge £100,000 cash jackpot and you will remember that I reported that it had to be won by the 8^th of November.  Well it’s been won and I’m sure the lucky winner is getting ready to have a huge celebration.  What a lovely amount of money to win before Christmas.

This lucky player scooped this amazing jackpot prize by getting the full house in 35 calls on the special 90 ball bingo game.  The player who has not been named and is only recognised by their username dreamer80 is now £100k richer.  The complete details of the win has not been released yet and I can’t tell you which room or game the money was won in.

You will remember that when I told you about this promotion that I mentioned that the all the players that took part in the game would get to share £10,000 and Mecca Bingo have remained true to their word on this too.  If you take into account that most of the online bingo games on the Mecca Bingo website have less than 100 players at a time then these lucky players will each have received at least £100 just for playing in this jackpot game.  So it seems like everyone is a winner.

If you weren’t lucky enough to win anything in this promotion don’t worry because every week Mecca Bingo have their Lucky Dip promotion where they award thousands of lucky online bingo players with great cash bonuses that they can spend on their favourite online bingo games.  There is £15,000 to be given away every week and all you have to do is play the games on this online bingo website to be in with a chance of winning some extra bingo cash.  If you are one of the lucky winners in the Lucky Dip promotion you will get an email from Mecca Bingo so be sure to keep a check on your email account.

New online bingo websites seem to be popping up every week and in today’s post I want to tell you about two new websites that you can check out.  Both of these online bingo websites have something to offer online bingo players and they both have great deposit bonuses and promotions to offer.

The first of these new online bingo websites is called Fun Bingo and this new online bingo website is powered by Interactive Playnet software.  This new online bingo website has free online bingo games which are becoming really popular and essential for online bingo websites.  They also offer a first deposit bonus too.  When you sign up with Fun Bingo you can avail of their free £10 no deposit bonus which will allow you to try out their games.  When you make a deposit they will give you are huge 250% deposit bonus.  According to the Fun Bingo website there is over £30,000 in cash prizes up for grabs every day and this is huge for a new online bingo website.

The second of the new online bingo websites that I want to tell you about today is called Love Your Bingo.  This online bingo website says it offers free online bingo but this is only the free cash that you get when you make your first deposit.  They offer a 200% deposit bonus when you make your first deposit and that is it.  The only thing that really peaked my interest about this new online bingo website is that fact that they have a fantastic £1 million game card.  If you win their special full house game you will be given a chance to win this prize.  All you have to do is get seven diamonds on your scratch card and you win the £1 million.  There really isn’t anything else that stands out about this new online bingo website and it seems to be pretty much the same as all the others.

These two new online bingo websites are live and they offer fans of online bingo games something new to try out.  Both of these websites feature your standard online bingo games along with side games and online casino games.  If you want to try these out then please come back and tell me what you think of them.

King Jackpot Bingo is another online bingo website that is offering its new players a free £10 no deposit bonus when they sign up for an account.  This will allow players to try out the games for free which is something that a lot of online bingo websites are doing at the moment.  The free money that they give you cannot be withdrawn and it has to be used to play the online bingo games on the website but this does help to let players see what the online bingo website is like and if it is worth making a deposit.  There are some wagering requirements that are involved on some of these online bingo websites if you do want to make a withdrawal so be sure to check these out as well.

If you decide that you like what King Jackpot Bingo has to offer then you will be happy to hear that they also offer a 100% deposit bonus for your first deposit and a 20% deposit bonus on all future deposits too.  This online bingo website also has a VIP rewards program and all players in this program can avail of a 40% deposit bonus on all the deposits they make and every Friday King Jackpot Bingo will give them 50% cash back on all the deposits they make.  This is great news for people who play a lot of online bingo games and it could work out as a lot of free cash too.

King Jackpot Bingo also have some great prizes and promotions to offer players and one thing that I did notice is that not all the prizes they offer are cash prizes.  They have some hampers up for grabs too and who doesn’t love a great hamper.  The games on this online bingo website are 3D games which are becoming very popular and the software that they are using on this online bingo website is exclusive to King Jackpot Bingo so you won’t see the same game layout anywhere else.

King Jackpot Bingo has 90 ball bingo games and they also have 24 hour customer support.  One of the things I noticed is that this online bingo website runs bingo tournaments which are great.  They also have some excellent promotions too and one of these is called Hunt for the Kings Treasure.  This is a tournament and in order to take part all you have to do is play the online bingo games on this website between Friday and Sunday.  There are two leader boards for this tournament one for the online bingo games and one for all the other games on this online bingo website.  All you have to do is be placed in the top three on the leader board to win a cash prize.

There are some great features on this online bingo website and if it sounds good to you why not sign up and get the free £10 no deposit bonus and see what you think.

It seems that the list of online bingo websites is never ending and today I have the pleasure of bringing you Gone Bingo.  This is another online bingo website and I want to tell you what they have to offer players.  First off, Gone Bingo has some great weekly and daily promotions for all their bingo players.  They are also currently offering a £15 no deposit bonus to all new players who register with their online bingo website.  This means that you will get £15 free to try out all their games.  Please note that no deposit bonuses cannot be withdrawn and can only be used to play the games on the online bingo website.

If you decide to make a deposit after you have used up your free cash you will get a deposit bonus.  Gone Bingo is actually offering 300% in deposit bonuses and this is for your first three deposits.  They also have an exclusive promotion running where players can get an extra £5 on top of their first deposit bonus if they enter the code Groovy.

Now that we have the bonuses out of the way let’s take a look at their promotions that Gone Bingo have to offer their players.  The first promotion I want to mention is called Lucky Depositors.  This is where three lucky players are chosen at random to receive £25 cash.  All you have to do to be eligible for this promotion is to deposit £20 into your online bingo account.  This is a daily promotion so there is plenty of cash to be won.

Another promotion that I want to tell you about is the Monday promotion on Gone Bingo.  This is where Gone Bingo will open the doors to their Player Appreciation Bingo Room every Monday between 2pm and 3pm and again between 7pm and 8pm.  During this time players will be able to join in the fun and play all the free bingo games that are on offer.  Players who enter this room will get 10 free bingo games and each game has a jackpot of £20.  Basically this is free online bingo every Monday on the Gone Bingo website.

Gone Bingo also has a number of other great promotions and these include bingo tournaments, slots promotions, Ladies Night and much more.  The full list of promotions is available on the Gone Bingo website.

Gone Bingo has a lot to offer players and like most other online bingo websites they have incorporated free bingo games into their schedule.  They also have a jackpot prize of £4,000 up for grabs so be sure to visit their website to read more about this.

If you are a fan of the TV game show Deal or No Deal then you will be delighted to hear that this TV game show is being introduced on some of the popular online bingo websites.  This new Deal or No Deal game has been causing quite a stir on online bingo news sites and this shows that the side games featured on online bingo websites really are getting quite a lot of play and attention.

The TV gameshow Deal or No Deal is very popular and thanks to an agreement between Endemol and Virtue Fusion a new version of this game will hit online bingo websites very soon.  News has reached of some of the online bingo websites that will be featuring the Deal or No Deal game and these include William Hill Bingo, Ladbrokes Bingo, Sky Bingo and Mecca Bingo.  There are probably more to join this list too but for now these online bingo websites seem to be the main ones.

The new Deal of No Deal game will have a very similar format to that of the popular TV game show and online bingo players who choose to play this game will be given 20 boxes that are display above their bingo cards.  Each box will have its own number between 1 and 90 and one of these boxes will be assigned to you.  Just like a regular game of bingo,  bingo balls will be called out and if there is a box that has the same number it will be opened and the prize amount offered will be revealed.  This amount will then be taken from the amounts that are shown to the left and right of the Deal or No Deal screen.  At the end of the online bingo game the full house winner will then be make and offer for their player’s box.  All the other players in the game will get to see the amount being offered by the banker and they can take part in the fun by voting on whether the winner should take the offer or not.  The winner will be able to see the results fo the vote and then can decide whether they want to take the deal being offered or whether they want to open their player’s box.  It sounds like great fun and I love the way everyone gets to be involved whether they win or not.

I have a funny feeling that this new online bingo game is going to be a huge success and if you fancy your chances why not check with your online bingo website to see if they will be featuring it.
