I have been shocked to read that ‘One in three married women are addicted to online bingo’. I am not shocked by the headline, more dismayed that drivel such as this gets published in the first place. The headline comes from a press release on journalism.co.uk which publicises a ‘survey’ by a portal called New […]

Parlay Software To Change Hands
Intertain weren’t a particularly well known name in the UK until quite recently when they bought up a number of Gamesys Bingo brands including Jackpot Joy, and now it seems the brand is bent on world domination as it snaps up the Parlay software too! Now the purchase of Gamesys we can understand, it’s a […]
Mobile Bingo Changes Playing Trends
Online bingo has been around a while now and it’s a busy little industry but at certain times of year we seem to be forget to power up the desktop and go out and enjoy the sun, head off on our holidays and put our love affair with bingo on ice for a couple of […]
Henry/Bragg B.I.N.G.O. Gallery
We love all things bingo, so, it was with great pleasure that we offered our support to the artist duo Julie Henry and Debbie Bragg for their latest project B.I.N.G.O. After what looked like a whole lot of fun during the first opening at the London Art Fair, the duo went on to Forest Hill […]

Paddy Power has been using the brand name, first as a chain of independent bookmakers and later online since 1988, with Paddy Bingo registered far more recently. Now a court has […]

Lucky Charm Bingo Commercial
Lucky Charm Bingo opened to players March 2015 so it’s a fairly new brand to the world of online gaming. However, whilst it may be a relative baby it hasn’t stopped this brand from advertising its wares on television just a short while after launch! The site itself is powered by the Dragonfish software but […]
Mecca’s Twerking Cactus Proves Us Wrong
Now we try and have pretty informed opinions here at Playing Bingo but even we’re the first to admit when we have got something wrong. When Mecca Bingo’s twerking cactus hit our screens in an ad campaign for the brand we were the first to say it was a lousy idea and all just a […]
B.I.N.G.O Show At Forest Hill Gallery
On Saturday 6th of June, and for one night only, there will be bingo night at the Canvas & Cream restaurant, next door to the C&C Gallery 18 London Road, Forest Hill, London. The night will be a re-run of the original B.I.N.G.O game at the London Art Fair in January, but in a different […]
