Virgin Bingo
When Virgin Bingo laid out its first offering for an online Bingo hall, fans were left simply wanting and expecting, more. Virgin learned a valuable lesson in that they must crawl before they can walk. Well now they are definitely on the run as the site has been given a complete face life. Let’s go check out the new look.
We think that Virgin may have had a little help with their new look form their partner in this Bingo venture, St. Minver. As many of you may know, St. Minver is responsible for some of the biggest halls in online Bingo. They offer a strong reputation, huge network, and more experience than money can buy. When a player takes part in one of their games they are guaranteed a top quality game of Bingo every time they walk through the door. And one thing that we always love to watch in a St. Minver hall is the ever growing totals on those jackpot counters. It seems as though those things just get bigger and bigger every time we see them. While we haven’t been given the opportunity to bring one home yet, we are ever hopeful.
But when you really get down to it, you’re not going to be the only one gunning for the top prize. In fact we bet that every player on that site has already planned how to spend their cash. With the very reasonable starting ticket prices, you will find yourself plenty of chances to make all those dreams your brand new reality.
As far as the basics go, Virgin delivers a solid performance on all fronts. The game play is wonderful, just what you would expect from the combination of Virgin and St. Minver. And the site isn’t very hard on the eyes. Since no one wants to get a diamond ring out of a doggie bag, it’s nice to have an attractive place to enjoy your favorite pass time. New players will find themselves feeling very much at home thanks to the new and improved customer information area. And with no installation necessary you can be in and playing in literally a matter of moments.
For non-downloading software, this seems like a very deluxe package. The whole system runs freely with no real catches or glitches. The game is presented in a streamlined console that integrates both chat and minigames right into the main screen, this way when you are waiting for a game to start, or even during a game, both of these options are right front and center. It is nice to not have to constantly switch around and look for different options and the you don’t have to jump from screen to screen to take part in the live chat. We tried several different chat rooms and found each one bustling with activity and commotion. This is a great addition to a great game of Bingo as it keeps the social aspect of the whole experience alive and well. Don’t forget to check into the regular chat games for ways to earn some great special bonuses.
No one likes to go through registration, but unfortunately it is a necessary evil. We just held our breath and jumped right in. The process is fine, no better or worse than what you will find anywhere else. The only thing that didn’t make us happy here is that you do have quite the wait for your info to finish processing. There is no progress indicator so you just sit there kind of wondering if things are locked up or not.
This is the point in our review where we usually have to apologize to the Mac users out there and let them know they won’t be able to play with us today. Well, ladies and gentlemen, we are happy to announce that today is a new day and at Virgin Bingo the 90-ball action is ready and waiting for all your gaming pleasure. And as with all good things, this offer comes complete with its very own catch. The only way you will be able to load the games at Virgin is if you run Internet Explorer rather than Safari on your system. This is a stipulation we can deal with.
Virgin Bingo has come a very long way in a very short amount of time. They are working diligently to continually improve their site and in direct conjunction, their player’s experiences. New players will feel right at home with the very lovely welcome bonus entitling them to up to 10 free games of Bingo. This “try before you buy,” offer will let you really get the feel of things before you commit with your own cash. All in all Virgin Bingo delivers a quality Bingo experience on all fronts, just go check it out for yourself.
