Big Bingo Fans in the UK

The online casino has become popular all over the world. But one game in particular is finding its way out of the church and into the homes of millions, Bingo. That`s right, players of all ages have found that bingo is a great way to keep oneself entertained, and for some reason, the English are becoming the biggest fans of the game. The English did not only have a penchant for wearing Scotland?s national dress over the festivities but are celebrating winnings of over ?10,000 a day gained playing Scotland?s first dedicated bingo website. Canny English punters have cottoned on to the big payout opportunities available via Scotland?s online bingo hall established to give Scots the ability to play against fellow countrymen.

The website operators have been surprised by the English take up. Although Scots are still in the majority, they are amazed at how much English players love Bingo Scotland. They paid out over ?100,000 between Christmas and New Year and the most recent big winner who won a massive ?4,000 progressive jackpot was from Cambridge! Their guess is that it`s the Scottish welcome and friendliness, plus the fact that unlike other bingo sites there are no evil slot machines or other casino gambling games. It`s purely bingo and a strong community that is making it one of the UK?s top online bingo destinations.

Over 5,000 bingo players have shared more than ?500,000 since the website launched in October 2005 with close to half of winners living across England. Created by the founders of the UK?s biggest bingo website, Think Bingo, players lay stakes from as little as 10p up to ?1. The site features three virtual bingo halls giving players the choice over where to play, who to play against or even who to chat to.
The minimum purchase to sign up is ?10 and the balance is topped up or reduced as players win or lose. Special cash and non-cash prizes feature throughout the day including weekly ?10,000 ?coverall? jackpots and quizzes.
