BengoesBingo

have been gambling in many forms for many years, online and offline but my only experiences of Bingo have been limited to an arcade Bingo in Hunstanton and one very intense and unpleasurable evening at Mecca Bingo some years ago. I was the youngest there and very much felt unwanted by the older regulars, especially when I one a game! It was after seeing a special offer on mutualpoints.com (see another of my reviews) that I decided to break my online bingo cherry. Mutualpoints was and still is offering the equivilent to £20 cashback when you join kingjackpot.co.uk via the mutualpoints.com website. Also, by depositing £30 via a debit or credit card your account is automatically credited with £10 real money and £40 BingoBonus money which can only be used once your real money deposit has been spent and you can only use the bonus money on the bingo games. Registration Registration is a quick and simple process as is depositing funds. You have your held through the registration and through the installation process which takes 4 minutes all in all and is very easy. The bonuses were applied immediately without problem. The Games This is not just a bingo site. There are a variety of games to play either for fun or for money. As the games icon is opended, once installed you are taken into a lobby where your 3 dimensional character can be guided into the various gaming rooms. Currently the options are as follows. Bingo There are four varied 90 ball rooms you can play and four 75 ball and rooms. Prices for each game can be as little as 10pence and as much as £1.50, with jackpots varying depending on number of players and actual games. The most I have seen as a jackpot is £2283 for a full house, sadly not won by yours truly. Once you decide which Bingo game you wish to play your character enters the room and you then choose a table to sit down on. You can see other peoples characters and indeed chat to them once sat down. The games vary and once you have a nose around the different games and rooms you will soon be familiar with the layout and know which game is where. You have the choice whether to go for the traditional bingo calling of legs eleven, kelly's eye, two little ducks etc or the less fun straight 6 and 8 sixty eight style During and inbetween play you can have a go on: Slots frut machine type games (galaxy and blackbeard) that you can bet from as little as 5p per go and in the case of Blackbeard win up to £625 jackpot. Pulltabs and Scratchcard Bet from 25p to £5 and open different scractch cards to win cash prizes Hi Low Bet from £1 to an astonishing £20 per go in guessing whether a number is going to be higher or lower then the previous. The winnings are determined by the odds. So when the number is say a 2 the odds and winnings are very very low on the next number being higher. If bingo isnt your thing there are games to play and win/lose your money. Video Poker and a multitude of slots are available including 3-reel, 5-reel, classic, progressive... trust me when I say there is no shortage of slot games for you to try!! Features Kingjackpot is laid out in a castle type animation which actually makes the whole experience more pleasurable and the ability to chat to people either on tables and rooms makes it more sociable and more fun. There are the usual Bank, live help and option facilities and all very easily navigable. Bonus There is a plethora of bonuses on offer from Kingjackpot inc 100% sign up bonus and an 50% deposit every monday and thursday. It has to be noted that you cannot withdraw bingobonus money but you can withdraw any winnings from it as long as it is over £5. By making a withdrawal in your first money you forfeit any bingobonus money you might have left in your account Security There are a number of ways to make deposits or "purchases" and I felt very assured with the above average level of security invloved in making the depsits and indeed when logging in and out of Kingjackpot.com Withdrawals If you are lucky enough to be in a positon to make a withdrawal, you can effortlessly. You even have the option of reversing the transaction if you so wish within a specified time limit of making the withdrawal (3 days) Experience. Overall I would say that I had a very pleasurable and profitable experience with Kingkackpot.com. Within two days playing a small amount of slots and bingo I had been able to withdraw £50 profit and even forfeit my £40 bonus (always quit ahead!). The bingo was fun and friendly and contributed about £18 profit and the slots contributed the remaining £32. I played a little of the hi-lo and the scratch cards and would advise people to avoid like the plague as did not win a bean on them and they appear a very quick way of losing money. The slots however I really enjoyed and although I have never been a fan of fruit machines and slots et al, I was happy with the win ratio...very happy :) Conclusion Being a gambler all these years it is important to a) quit ahead and b) know when to stop. As soon as there was sufficient profit i withdrew the sum, closed the account and would advise others to do the same. This is a very generous site in terms of bonuses and if you join via mutualpoints.com you get £20 of the £30 you deposit back and remembering that they give you an extra £10 real cash once you sign up the risk factor to your initial deposited money is little, but it is enjoyable and I can see how people can get hooked. A big tick for Kingjackpot is its social side. I havent played online bingo before or since so I have nothing to compare it to but at Kingjackpot the people i talked to all seemed very friendly and I acually had a good laugh with some. Give it a go, be careful and make sure you use mutualpoints.com to sign in with. Thanks
