Chit Chat Bingo
Are you familiar with the legend of the phoenix? A phoenix is a mythical bird that when it dies, is reborn from its own ashes. This is a good analogy for what took place at Chit Chat Bingo. You see, what is now known as Chit Chat Bingo once operated under the name of Gala. At the time, Gala was partners with St. Minver, and operated the site as a part of their network. Once Gala got their feet wet and felt comfortable in the industry, they cut the aprons strings and decided to spread their own wings. Now here is the problem. Their old site shut down rather suddenly while they prepared for a re-launch. This left St. Minver with nothing, and players with nowhere to go. Enter Chit Chat, St. Minver’s new and current partner on the site. While Chit Chat and Gala have no connection, if you were a fan of the old, you will be a fan of the new.
Now that we are all familiar with the history of the site, let’s take a few minutes to get better acquainted with its here and now. The site is relaxing to look at, with a color scheme that is both laid back and inviting. It advertises a company motto of, “My Kind of People,” that just makes you think of long lazy days spent with friends. Chit Chat Bingo has done the work so you don’t have to, keep even navigation and sign-up quick and painless.
The interworking of this hall is a veritable buzz of activity. Even though your experience is unhurried and relaxed doesn’t mean there is nothing going on. Bingo games are being held all the time, and well as energetic chat options, and casino style games for when you just need a change. A great benefit to playing here is the seemingly never-ending chat options available to players; we guess that fitting for a site called Chit Chat. Players can customize their console with whichever room they choose, making the site as a whole feel much larger. The caller is a bit too feisty, but the CMs rock. They are the rulers of their domains, keeping the rooms in check as well as running the regular chat games. So sit back, take a load off, and take part in some crazy Bingo antics that will leave you in stitches.
Online Bingo can be an absolute blast to play, but only when it is easy to do so. If you find yourself constantly fighting software issues and glitches then it stops being fun, and starts being work. The good news here is that with Chit Chat Bingo you will never work a day in your life. They offer all their play launched off a non-downloading platform that is responsive and intuitive. A very nice change from others we have come across. We give them extra kudos here for running software that is available to Mac users. This is a major upgrade from the old days that was a long time coming. Chit Chat also takes advantage of the St. Minver connection with their jackpots. Being able to pool people in sheer numbers means you can’t help but drool over the results.
Have you ever heard of a Bingo Alert? This was a new one for us but we thought it was a fun idea. As a part of the Chit Chat family, XP users have the privilege of downloading this little buddy who will do its best to make sure they never miss a single second of Bingo action. Just for trying him out, Chit Chat will give the player $2 deposited right into their account. For those of you who don’t run XP, don’t worry there are still promotions to be had. All newbie’s will be given $1 in their account just for signing up. To put it in perspective, that’s ten free Bingo games all for you!
Well, the free games are nice, but we want more. Where did all the non-cash prizes go to hide? Chit Chat needs to do a little work here and up both the variety and number of prizes they offer. A strong promotions system can be a huge draw to players and you can really feel the lack of one on this site. But on the topic of customer support, there is no lack we could find. St. Minver offers their system here and it comes complete with both freephone and e-mail options for the Bingo lover in all of us. In this we have no complaints because we could find absolutely nothing worth complaining about.
Yes, Chit Chat Bingo does have several similarities with other St. Minver sites, but to us that really doesn’t become an issue at all. What matters are the games and on that front they deliver in spades. It may be the new kid on the block, but it will soon become the prom queen with its great playing platform and visual surprises. This is one you just need to see for yourself.
