This time, I wanted to let you all in on a little secret – you don’t need to go trawling the Internet with words like ‘free’ and ‘bingo’. Why don’t you need to do this? Because there’s a site that has done it for you!

That site is WhichBingo.co.uk and is my first port of call for all things bingo related – from what the newly opened sites are to where to find site offering completely free bingo bucks and the sites who offer other great membership incentives like excellent first-deposit and reload bonuses.

WhichBingo.co.uk is unique in that it seems to be the only complete online bingo directory out there, at least that I’ve found. Many other directories will list their favourites, or maybe list half of them, but at the time of writing this, the WB directory has 353 bingo sites listed – and all of them have the ability to be reviewed by their site visitors, so you can see at a glance if the general player thinks a site is good or not.

But back to my point of free bingo. WB has a list that they’re constantly updating called ‘No Deposit Bonuses’ that tells you exactly where you need to go if you want free BBs.

Currently, places like Bingo Liner and House of Bingo are offering £20 completely free to play with even before you make your first deposit. It’s the easiest way to get to know a bingo site without dishing out your own hard-earned cash up front.

Upon first loading the site, you are greeted by an attractive yellow/blue colour scheme, with a clear “join” button in the navigation – as well as a message to claim a 100% matched bonus… don’t mind if I do!

Once we were signed up, we headed straight for the bingo rooms. The homepage said there were almost 400 players online and that the site had paid out £370,000 today alone, but I think that must be network wide as surely one small new site can’t have paid out that much! We found both 75 and 90 ball bingo games to play. Some of the rooms had jackpots attached, including a £1,000,000 coverall jackpot which is apparently playable 3 times a week.

Other jackpots include the daily £100 jackpot at 8.45pm (too close to bedtime for me!) and a £6,000 “free-4-all”, which we couldn’t really figure out.

We Want Bingo also issues a weekly newsletter which has been cleverly titled the Bingazette.

In addition to bingo games, the site also had a variety of casino and slots games.

There is a free phone number listed on the site for anyone who needs help. This is a great feature and something we’d love to see more bingo sites offering in the future. You can see what other players are saying about We Want Bingo on WhichBingo.

Getting started in online bingo is simple and easy. All that is needed is for a player to choose the right site and sign up. Once you sign up there is nothing left to do but begin to compete in online bingo games. Many sites even offer newer members vouchers for buying into games without having to invest in the pot.

Once you have decided on a website to play on you will need to get a strategy together. While many people attribute winning at bingo to pure luck, others understand that as with any game, there are things that can be done in order to increase your chances of winning. Playing in the same room or on the same website is one excellent way to increase your odds of winning. Playing towards the same goal over and over again will inevitably bring you closer to the goal and eventually a win. You may also want to compete in rooms that do not have as many people as this will also increase your chances of winning exponentially.

For many people, the similarities of the two types of bingo are enough to make it more than worth any players while to stay home and compete online. Competing online offers the same type of jackpots but also adds several perks that would attract bingo players to their sites. Many online bingo halls offer promotional credits that can be used to buy into games with for free to newer members, allowing new players to take full advantage of the gambling atmosphere of a bingo game without any cost to themselves.

Online bingo (you’ll find sites to play at in the bingo directory at WhichBingo.co.uk)is essentially the same game, minus the ball machine and adding a random number generator. Online bingo allows for bingo players to still play bingo for cash prizes while in the comfort of their own home. Most online bingo rooms are set up to provide the feel of a real bingo room, with people walking about and constant chatter in the background meant to simulate a real bingo hall.

Online free bingo allows not only for greater comfort, but also for greater variety. There is also an overabundance of online bingo games available to players in the UK willing to spend money to play in their game rooms. Winnings can reach into the thousands of dollars and on some occasions even higher. It may even be possible to win money without even investing a pound into a bingo site. Some sites give players credits towards their initial buy in that can be used to enter without investing at all, and with any luck you may be able to win some money like this.

In recent years the demographic of the average bingo player has dropped into the lower age ranks and most of the bingo players who are online currently are at least below fifty. In addition, online bingo is one of the most popular activities for woman in the UK ages twenty through twenty five. Many men in the UK also find that playing bingo can be beneficial to ridding themselves of boredom as well as potentially lining their wallet with extra cash.

If you decide that you want to take part in a free bingo playing web site then there are some things you may want to do to increase your odds of winning. Playing in lower traffic website is a great way to increase your odds of winning. Because there are so many people who currently play online bingo it will be a good idea to choose a reputable but higher priced site that will allow for lower numbers of players but still higher jackpots to be won.
