Virgin Bingo

Who Is Virgin Bingo?

Come on now peeps, slightly creepy looking dude with a menacing beard, mountains of wonga…owns an airline, big set of trains, radio station, music retailers, an exotic island and is about to launch his space tourist service any year soon? No? Richard Branson not ring a bell? Well then it shouldn’t surprise you to learn that he’s got his finger into another money-spinning pudding, namely the whole #online bingo# lark. Hence Virgin Bingo. Being a virtual bingo presence owned by the omnipresent Mr B.

What Is Virgin Bingo?

It’s the latest multimedia weapon in Branson’s bid for world domination, and playing true to script, Virgin Bingo is awash with the red and white corporate colours you know and love. Well, know anyway. And of course, the big T word. T for trust.

Virgin Bingo’s online games set up back from as little as 1p, which is great news for the impoverished or none risk takers out there. This equates to a full strip of cards costing from six pence. A credit crunch-busting SIX PENCE we ask you?! Naturally it wouldn’t be Virgin if they weren’t going to make a few quid on your back, so rest assured if you want to win big you best spend big, but to get you out of the traps you really cant complain with these cheap as chips practice rounds.

Who’s Behind Virgin Bingo?

Minus benefiting from a white cat perched atop his knee being deliberately stroked, Richard Branson knows how to rule the world, albeit not in an evil genius manner. Although don’t quote us on this as the jury’s still out.

Is Virgin Bingo Any Good? *****

Well, if you cant trust the Virgin brand and believe in its worldly status amongst the globe’s movers and shakers then you best be off. Yeah, it’s just the ticket for both newcomers and seasoned online bingo players alike. A pleasant sounding virtual bingo caller helps the Virgin cause no end (that and the underlying fact that it’s NOT Keith Chegwin), yet when your bingo cards automatically change colour before your very eyes as they’re put in the correct physical order for you on screen (dependent on how close to winning you are) really adds to the excitement levels. In fact we found the whole experience rather pulse quickening to be fair.

Another tip-top aspect of Virgin Bingo is the fact that players can digress with the chat room element of the site whilst simultaneously following the bingo game in hand, effectively meaning that you can collaborate your game and chat preferences. Another fun application is the Virgin Bingo mini games that can be played whilst you’re involving yourself in the two aforementioned self-entertainment modes. Women call it multi-tasking we believe.

What’s more is the fact you don’t have to download any fiddly, memory space-hogging gaming software before you commence your Virgin Bingo education. And get this. There’s a ‘triffic V points scheme whereby the more bingo points you accumulate, the greater chance you have of exchanging these for Virgin gift vouchers. And even air miles, seeing as it’s Branson’s plaything and all that. Points are gathered every time you purchase bingo cards or play any of the other fun games you’ll discover around the comprehensively bingo game-littered website. Go see for yourself!

What Free Bingo Promotions Do Virgin Offer? ****

Put it this way; just as soon as new players registers at Virgin Bingo they’re handed a free £5 play for their troubles. And that’s without you spending a penny. Which of course then means you can go off and explore the bingo site free of charge, without risking any of your hard earned as you see the lay of the Virgin Bingo land. And when you feel ready to commit, then it’ll only cost you a fiver to get started anyway. Naturally enough, the more you deposit into your newly created online account, the more cash you’ll progressively amass, allowing a 100% bonus maximum of £125.

What Current Deals Are On The Table? ****

The Virgin ‘Month of Good Deeds’ sounds like the sort of promotion that’ll reap some kind of fiscal rewards for those bingo-addled punters out there. And guess what. We’re not wrong. No siree. Virgin hampers, Spa days, subscriptions to Virgin gyms and the like are all up for grabs simply by chancing your bingo arm (or at least your mouse-controlling finger) on Virgin’s take on what online bingo should be all about.

You might be interested to learn that every Friday night there’s £1500 big money prize games at Virgin Bingo, and from 9pm on the evening there’s the chance to trouser a massive £5000. further great news for regular visitors to the site is the fact that anyone who buys in excess of 5000 bingo tickets over whatever period of time will automatically receive an additional 250 complimentary bingo tickets. That’s right. On Virgin’s house.

How Many Bingo Rooms Can You Visit Online? ***

Once you’ve registered your interested – and invested your luca – into Virgin Bingo then you can instantaneously become embroiled in Virgin Games and Virgin Poker too for no extra cost/hassle. And Virgin being Virgin means the all the applications are pretty damn cool and bound to keep your interest for hours upon end, if, on the off chance you grow tired of the bingo-related shenanigans. Which let’s face it you wont. The Virgin video poker game is a hoot though if your mind and fingers are prone to a bit of wandering. And there’s Virgin’s slots games to keep you occupied too (Cleopatra, Monopoly), instant win games (Pub Darts, Funky Monkey Scratch Cards) and casino-type doo-dahs like Blackjack and poker. Oh, and did we fail to mention Keno? In a nutshell Keno is akin to a lottery game which fronts some pretty useful cash wins if you hit a lucky streak and adds gamely to the already impressive mix.

Aside from all the hullabaloo, Virgin offer a host of chat rooms should you just wish to chill and regroup away from all the bingo action. Although like we’ve already said, if you’re up to the job you can balance your gossiping with your game playing if you so wish.

90/75/80 BALL BINGO?

Virgin Bingo offers a little bit of both codes, with 90 and 75 ball rooms at your disposal. Two 90 and one 75 to be precise, whilst the chat rooms are divided four ways yet accessed through any of the bingo halls as and when required. Incidentally they go by the following names; Mad for Bingo, Bingo Cafe, Chill Out Room and Girls Night Out in case you were previously in the dark. With regards to the bingo halls themselves, don’t forget to check out the Virgin Happy Hour in the 90 ball rooms between the hours of 6pm and 7pm where tickets are half price, whilst the popular Jackpot Sessions take place in the 75 ball room over the same period and jackpot prizes are constantly on the table.

WHAT’S THE CATCH? There isn’t one. Don’t be such a pessimist. Didn’t we tell you – it’s run by Richard Branson PLC. Therefore every eventuality has been catered for, no stone unturned.

WILL THEY ACCEPT MY PLASTIC? They accept all major credit/debit cards, Bank Transfer and Neteller for depositing

IS THE SITE SECURE? Is the Pope catholic? Seriously, it’s V.I.R.G.I.N for lord’s sake. Do you think old weird beard would be where he is today if he hadn’t got his security sorted across his lifestyle-biased, cross platform enterprises?!

HOW CAN I CONTACT THEM SHOULD I WANT TO? By the phone or information superhighway friends, 24 hours a virtual day.
