XBingo
It’s always a privilege to review a new bingo site and the team at FreeBingoSites.co.uk recently spent some time reviewing XBingo. Although still relatively early days, as the site has only been operating for 4 months and is still expanding, the team were happy to report back their findings for you to read and make up your own minds if XBingo is the site for you.
Free bingo bonus:
XBingo only launched in April 2011 and as such are really keen to attract new players. They’re currently offering free bingo games when you register an account with them, and then a 300% first deposit bonus up to £300. Between now and 5th September they’re also offering a 50% reload bonus on every deposit you make with a minimum of just £10 required.
Free Bingo Games:
- New players gain entry to a free bingo room as do players who make a first deposit
- For lovers of free bingo there is a Free Daily Play game which is available to all funded players.
- For all subsequent deposits players make they are also entitled to 24 hours access to the free re-loaders game.
I love it when new bingo sites offer you free bingo bonus to register with them. XBingo is full regulated in the Isle of Man so I feel confident that I am dealing with a reputable site. The minimum deposit is just £10 and after any new deposits I make I can get more free bingo, so I’ll be taking full advantage of that! Games are a little bit more expensive than on some other bingo sites but new rooms have been added recently so hopefully some cheaper ones will be added in the future. Even so with the games starting at only 5p I still feel this is a site that will appeal to other players like me who are on a budget.
I must admit that XBingo has got quite a good vibe to it. Although I was a bit worried on hearing talk about the fairies on the site I was pleased to see that they’re not the cute ones I was fearing but instead have quite a fantasy feel to them; with their blue heads they reminded me of the characters in Avatar. I’m always a bit wary of bingo sites that have their own software though I must admit that this seems ok so far. The slots are divided into different categories; fantasy, adventure, cheeky and cute, and if you scroll over the different slots you can see how many reels and paylines they have, as well as the minimum and maximum betting amounts and any special features, which makes it easier for me to see which ones are worth playing. There are a couple of progressive slot games that caught my eye, so I will definitely be playing some more.
Some people feel that there are already enough, if not too many, bingo sites around but I always think along the lines of the more the better. Usually more sites mean that the extra competition just makes sites more competitive with their offerings, which leads to better bonuses and promotions which I’ll never complain about. XBingo gets a tick in the box for giving us plenty of free bingo as well as a generous 300% welcome deposit bonus. At the moment all other deposits get a 50% bonus although I’ll be keeping an eye out in September to see if this continues or not. They have their own software which makes it different to play at than other sites, which again is a plus point. It’s still quite early days so there aren’t as many bingo rooms as I can find elsewhere but XBingo seems to be listening to player’s feedback so I’m definitely keeping an eye on this site.
