Current stats for Gala Bingo
Since making the switch from a networked platform to their own proprietary (in-house) software, Gala Bingo really have come on in leaps and bounds. They are a big name bingo site, and sure enough, there are plenty of players to jostle with at Gala Bingo, with big money jackpots to make it all worth your while.
Gala Bingo’s online bingo site runs on it’s own software, which definitely gives Gala games a bit of an edge over some of their more conventional competitors. But the guys haven’t forgotten the basics – you can still get your fix of plenty of 75-ball bingo and 90-ball bingo games and some great jackpot variations. Gala Bingo are renowned for their progressive jackpots, available on slots and on bingo games – these can get pretty big, pretty quickly. Ones to watch include the new Wonderland slot, and the Cash Climber jackpot, which you can win by calling bingo in 32 calls or less.
With a huge number of rooms and roomies, sometimes it can be a little easy to get lost in Gala Bingo, but their friendly CM’s try their hardest to keep up with the many roomies. Chat games can be a little frantic, but if you like to think of yourself as a speedy typist, you could well triumph. Despite their size, Gala Bingo still manage to boast a whopping winner a second, which sound like good enough odds to us.
Free bingo is a daily treat, but don’t expect 24/7 freebie games or any no deposit offers. Gala Bingo do offer two free bingo jackpots at 7.25pm and 8.25pm for funded players – the upside of this is that you are competing for a much bigger prize pot, with a £50 full house prize up for grabs. It’s not the best free bingo offer we’ve ever seen, but hey, at least the guys have got a couple of games. It’s worthwhile keeping an eye on the promos page though, as Gala Bingo seem to change their promos on a very frequent basis, with anything from bargain bingo, BOGOF and half price tickets and £50k jackpot schedules on offer.
The other big gap in the Gala Bingo site is any sort of real loyalty scheme – Gala Bingo will reward their very top players with a special invite only VIP scheme, but for the rest of us average joes, don’t expect your play to be rewarded that frequently. It’s a shame and really does stop Gala Bingo from being perfect in our eyes.
But not to worry, you can still claim a welcome bonus when you sign up. A juicy 200% boost on your first deposit awaits at Gala Bingo – and with a minimum deposit of £5, it’s a great value deal for players who would rather part with a smaller amount of cash when signing up. All in all, we like Gala Bingo – and with such an easy peasy sign up scheme, it’s well worth giving it a try yourself.
