Winzingo Bingo
For those looking to open a virtual Bingo hall in today’s very crowed market place, they might find choosing a name one of the hardest parts of the process. While a rose by any other name would still smell as sweet, if no one wants to smell it then who cares? Companies have to get more and more creative in finding new names to bring people through the doors. Overall we think that Winzingo Bingo has lucked upon a winner. The name is fresh and new, without being so out there that it is hard to remember, or much less spell. We can’t wait to find out if the rest of the hall will leave us with the same happy feeling.
One key factor that will never be an issue at Winzingo is security. These guys really know their stuff, and for any questions that might pop up they have an ace in the hole. Winzingo Bingo has a partner in the one and only TGN, The Gaming Network. This very well looked upon group is responsible for some of the biggest names in the business. They have worked very hard for their secure reputation and they are not about to lose it now.
Since the word Winzingo just makes you think about fun, that is what we expected the web site to look like, fun. We were met instead with a very dull and drab look that seemed more on its way out than in. Seeing as how this is the entrance hall to the site and should be designed to grab players and welcome them in, this made us fear for their games. We held fast though and stuck around. They would not be the first hall to make up for an admittedly rocky start. In fact when we started to show ourselves around, we found both the new player page and the CMs to be very high quality. Maybe we shouldn’t be too hasty to judge a book by its cover.
This is one book that we are certainly glad we didn’t put down after just a few pages. When we got into the meat of things, we discovered that Winzingo Bingo has a secret. They are not delivering their games on some second rate no-name platform, but instead have chosen to use the very powerful Parlay. Parlay is one of the top software’s available out there today. They use a non-downloading format that is truly first class. What this means to you is that no matter if you chose 75 or 90-ball Bingo your game is guaranteed to be delivered in top form. We were in for a nice surprise when we found that our chat loaded right into the main screen. Players are automatically logged into a room, but it is a simple thing to change rooms or just opt out completely. No matter what chat room you find yourself thrown into the middle of, you are always sure to meet some very interesting people. Your CM will be there to keep things lively as well as offer any help you might need. The 90-ball games are busier here but that is a reflection of the number of UK players taking part in all the fun. Winzingo serves up a heaping helping of casino style games for your ever changing palette. The Roulette here is actually much smoother and better quality than what we have found in actual online casinos.
In an industry that seems to be straying further and further from nice promotions Winzingo is a breath of fresh air. This is one area that they seem to have put a lot of thought into. We love the weekly competition between players to come up with ideas for future prizes and promotions. This is a new twist on non-cash prizes that is very refreshing. They only thing missing in the whole category is freeplay options on at least a few games. Without this very convenient perk, players have no way to warm up or try new things without a cash investment. It would be a very nice gesture for Winzingo to add this to their promotions menu.
Since we always seem to run into some kind of problem, customer support is a big stop on our list. At Winzingo Bingo we found an interesting mix of the good and the bad. The good is that every agent we talked to was very knowledgeable in all aspects of the site. The information was clear and accurate on all counts. The bad side is that this is not a 24/7 option. Live customer support is only open for business Monday thru Friday, 9 to 5. A time frame like this is especially troublesome as that is not when most players are taking part in their Bingo passion.
While there are certainly some improvements needed, the hall overall is doing a very good job. They have perfected their core strength of offering one great game of Bingo and now have the time to work on the details. What turns a good Bingo hall into a great Bingo hall is paying attention to all the little extras that are so easy to overlook. Winzingo Bingo is well on their way to being a leader of the Bingo pack. That is, if they take the time to look at the details and make things great.
