Biggest Bingo Review

Claiming to offer the "Biggest Bingo on the Net", Biggest Bingo is still a relatively small fish in the sea in comparison to the hulking great bingo sites that are now available on-line. Despite this, the Biggest Bingo site still attracts many customers to its thriving site and hosts a whole range of games, jackpots and tempting prizes. Hosted in Gibraltar and licensed there, the Biggest Bingo site is brought to you by Dragonfish, who are the independent B2B division of the hugely-popular 888 Holdings Plc, who you may know of from sites such as Casino On Net and Pacific Poker.

The Biggest Bingo website is simpler than many bingo sites - partly because they do not offer the huge range of extras that many have come to expect from on-line bingo, such as a forum and news. Because of this, it is easy to navigate but many may find it hard to warm to the site and be drawn back again and again to play. Nevertheless, the site is fun and bold, with bright colours and interesting eye-catching advertisements for games as well as a scrolling bar which keeps players updated on the latest winners on the site.

Two types of bingo games are on offer on the Biggest Bingo site - both 75 ball and 90 ball bingo. Both of these games are played on the site via a pop-up window using Flash technology, so there is no download required to play. In addition to your average bingo games, they also offer big-money jackpot games, with guaranteed jackpots ranging from £50 to £1500 minimum. Thousands more can also be won in their progressive jackpot bingo games if a player is lucky enough to match the "Diamonds are Forever" pattern. New-comers to on-line bingo may not find Biggest Bingo ideal though, as although they offer a help and FAQ section, it is not as comprehensive and easy-to-follow as many.

Promotions are frequently added to the site and new players will benefit from the standard welcome bonus. In addition, prizes such as electronics and home equipment as well as holidays are up for grabs, with new prizes updated each week in their "Bingo Gazette", a newsletter sent to members.

In addition to bingo games, Biggest Bingo also offers a range of fun instant games with the option to play for fun money or real cash. These offer some generous cash prizes to the winners and currently include games such as slots and instant wins as well as a variety of table and card games such as poker and blackjack. These games can be played whenever a member desires - be it in-between bingo games or even while they are already enjoying a round.

The community at Biggest Bingo is a little disappointing - there are no forums or specific community areas where players can relax and chat without actually entering the games selections screen, as all the chat rooms are in the flash client. Nevertheless, Biggest Bingo is known for their lively chat rooms, which are moderated carefully by a team of friendly staff who offer chat games and topics throughout the day. Loyalty points can be earned by playing these games, which can then be used to purchase bingo cards or take part in their special offers. All new players receive 1,000 loyalty points upon joining and points can also be claimed by referring friends or playing games on the site.
A winner's page is also available on the site, where members can view a small amount of info on recent lucky players, but The Bingo Gazette is best for regular updates on current winners and offers more in the way of real-life photos and stories.

As mentioned earlier, the help and FAQ (frequently asked questions) area of the site is not up to the usual standard you would expect from a modern and busy bingo site. Although new players will be able to follow the help section, it is not as easy to find as most and those who are perhaps new to the Internet and on-line gaming may find themselves confused. Most of the help is laid out with reams of text, as well as a questions and answers section and could well benefit from a more comprehensive step-by-step guide in clearer type and screen shots to guide new players. Regardless, the help section is useful and players can find additional assistance by emailing the team or by ringing the UK only toll free number, which is manned 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The phone-shy can also obtain help through the game in the 24 hour help chat room.
