bet365 Bingo

I am a huge bet365 fan. Let’s put that out there right away. In a way—a very big way—it makes me biased. But I’m a fan because I use the site every day and it has always done right by me. However, while I have used the sportsbook almost weekly for 15 years and dabble occasionally on the casino, I can’t recall ever using the bingo site.

So, for the following bet365 Bingo review, I added some funds to my account, clicked on the bingo room, and proceeded to lose every penny of my deposit. 

Here’s what I learned.

Welcome Bonuses and Other Offers

New Players at Bet365 Bingo can get 100 Free Tickets and 50 Free Spins. To qualify for this welcome offer you need to spend £10 cash on bingo tickets. The Free spins are valued at 10p and can be used on Big Bass Bonanza, Book of the Fallen, John Hunter and the Book of Tut, Snakes and Ladders Megadice.

There are monthly free spins on slot machines, free bingo tickets to use in its many bingo rooms, and weekly cashback rewards of up to 3.65%. 

These are great bonuses, and they are enhanced further by the inclusion of two massive guaranteed jackpots that regularly pay out 6-figure sums. There is also a free bingo section that opens every day from 1 pm to 2 pm and from 5 pm to 7 pm. 

These free bingo games give you a chance to win up to £1,200 in prizes every single week, and as the name suggests, they don’t cost anything to play. If you’re a small-stakes player or you’re new to bingo, they are excellent. 

Keep an eye on the “Offers” section to see what promotions are active at the time that you join.

Software and Bingo Games

It’s rare for sportsbook/casino bingo rooms to excel when it comes to the community and gaming selection. Bingo is often just an afterthought, and as the sites are primarily targeted toward sports bettors and casino players, the chat rooms are often dead and the games are generic and dull.

That’s not the case with bet365 Bingo though. I was very surprised to see how active the chat room was. I mean, I didn’t actually join in. I am far too anti-social for that. But I monitored their activity from a distance and then promptly closed down all chat windows.

The bingo rooms are also great. These benefit from bet365’s resources in that they are rarely short on players and usually have large jackpots available.

Most games can be played for £0.05 per ticket, but there are lower and higher variations available. There are 75-ball, 80-ball, and 90-ball bingo rooms, and you rarely have to wait more than a minute for the next game.

Some of the most popular games here include Space Odyssey, The Race Track, and Candy Emporium, but there are many more game rooms to join.

If you prefer slots and table games, you have the benefit of being connected to bet365’s vast online casino. You’re also just a click away from the sportsbook.

Customer Support and Banking Options

bet365 Bingo accepts a number of payment options:

• Debit Cards
• PayPal
• Apple Pay
• Google Pay
• Paysafecard
• Click to Pay
• Wire Transfer

The minimum deposit amount is just £5 and there are no fees for deposits or withdrawals. Withdrawals used to be a little slow here, but that seems to have changed in the last year or so.

I have always used a debit card and while it used to take 3 days to get my funds, they are now transferred instantly. And I don’t just mean that there is no pending period. The funds actually land in my bank account within minutes.

Customer support is excellent as well. I have noted in the past that bet365 has gone out of its way to offer me goodwill gestures when they make a mistake. This might be because I have been a member for so long, but the same could be said for many other sites, and none treat me as well as this one.

The one issue I have is that the support is a little slow. Live chat isn’t the best and so I often use emails. But it can take them a day or two to reply, whereas I usually get a response in minutes with PokerStars Casino and other big-name providers.

Verdict: bet365 Bingo Review

Not everyone is a fan of bet365, but that’s how these things usually work. If you have one bad experience with a site, as I did with Betfair, then you’ll hate that site forever more. The fact that bet365 is so big means a lot of players have had bad experiences.

But even they can admit it has some of the best software around. I waxed lyrical about this in my bet365 sportsbook review, but it’s the same story with bet365 Bingo. 

The only issue that I have with bet365 Bingo is that it doesn’t have a traditional welcome bonus. There are bonuses here, as noted above, but there isn’t much to collect as a new player.

If I was scoring bet365 on the whole, it wouldn’t be an issue, as the casino and sportsbook have bonuses. But as it’s just bet365 Bingo, I have to mark it down a little.
