Littlewoods Bingo

www.littlewoodsbingo.com

The Littlewoods name is familiar to almost everyone in the UK. The ladies among us know it as a convenient catalogue retail company. The fellas know it as a popular football pools and online betting company. And now both sexes will begin to associate the Littlewoods name with it’s online bingo site. But does the site do the Littlewoods name proud? Or is it an embarrassment? We decided to get in there and find out…

The Littlewoods Bingo main home page is clean, crisp and as colourful as a summer garden in full bloom. A lime green menu on the left hand side of the screen allows you to directly navigate to most areas of the site, and the rest of the screen is devoted to descriptions of the latest promotions for both new and existing players. At the time of writing, new players are offered a free bingo bonus for signing up and a bonus cash to match their initial deposit, whilst existing members are given the chance to win a fantastic cruise for two. Promotions change all the time, so it’s always worth checking in from time to time even if it’s just to make sure you aren’t missing out on any goodies.

There is no need to download any software to play Littlewoods Bingo. Just enter your details to register a new account, activate the account by responding to the e-mail you’ll be sent and away you go.

Activating your account currently earns you an instant bingo bonus which enables you to buy a small number of bingo cards without spending any of your own money, so you can move straight on to the game itself.

Bingo cards cost as little as 10p each, depending on the payout level of the game you want to play, and for every £1 you spend on cards you will earn 10 loyalty points. Collect enough loyalty points and you can exchange them for cash, effectively enabling you to buy more bingo cards for free! If you don’t want to do this you can keep collecting the points for something even more impressive – how about a nice Champagne Hamper or a VIP shopping trip in London?

The actual gaming room is very well laid out with virtually life-size bingo cards, a numbers board and a chat feature which is given a quarter of the screen. The bingo itself is of the club variety, which means you’ll need to get a line, two lines or a full house to win. There is an auto-daub feature which comes in very handy when playing multiple cards, though you can turn this off and daub your cards manually if you’re only playing one or two. The caller here is male and speaks very clearly to call the numbers and to announce the beginning of each game – a useful feature if you’re playing one of the many mini games between sessions!

All of this is impressive, but the best aspect of the Littlewoods Bingo site is the chat facility. There are four chat rooms which you can choose to participate in, though Bingo Café is always the most popular with regular players. Conversation is lively and good-natured, though if you do ever run into anyone who annoys you, there is an option to “mute” them so you won’t know they are there. If only we could have such an option in real life!

Overall, we have to say that we like Littlewoods Bingo. It recreates the atmosphere of a traditional bingo hall in style and offers an enjoyable online bingo experience.
