Bringo Bingo Review

Bringo Bingo is a Dragonfish bingo site from Ignite, the people behind Costa Bingo. It’s themed on TV quiz shows and shares bingo rooms and a loyalty program with sites such as 888 Ladies as well as with Costa and other Ignite sites.

The theming at Bringo Bingo was absolutely stunning when it first launched in 2017 but it had to be toned down shortly afterwards when the Gambling Commission wrote to operators telling them not to use cartoon characters that might appeal to under 18s in any advertising – including on their own websites. The cartoon game show host therefore had to be removed and the theming now is a shadow of its former self. Although it does go beyond the home page in that the names of bingo rooms and promotions are TV show catchphrases, this doesn’t extend into the bingo lobby.

Bringo was the last Ignite site to launch and not just because of the purge of cartoon characters (of which Ignite sites had many). They were also hit by taxation changes resulting first in the removal of the no deposit bonus they were famous for, and then in the replacement of their rather generous welcome bonus offer with a free tickets offer.

Free bingo tickets at Ignite sites were a bit more flexible than at other Dragonfish sites but you were never going to win anything big from them as all of the games they could be used in had a prize pool of just £10. Despite not being particularly popular with players, the free tickets offer ran for the best part of 3 years and has now finally been replaced with a bingo bonus offer.

Apart from the £1000 bingo games for invited players that run every Friday evening and a few other daily and weekly games all of which are exclusive to Ignite sites, Bringo Bingo shares its bingo rooms with 888 Ladies, Wink Bingo and other associated sites. Most of these rooms are cash only, with just one 90 ball room and a few weekly jackpot games available to play with bonus (you can find these grouped in the lobby under “Buy In Bonus”). The loyalty scheme is shared across the same groups of sites and coins collected at one site can be redeemed in the loyalty shop at any of the others.

The promotions page at Bringo Bingo looks pretty full but take a closer look and you’ll see that it is mostly just descriptions of network bingo games and deposit offers and despite the theming they are exactly the same as at other sites on the network.

A skin site, then, but with a decent welcome offer (assuming you like 90 ball bingo games with a 5p ticket price as that’s where you’ll be spending much of it).
