I have been a member of Gala bingo website for about 6 months now. I was introduced by my mum. The sign up offer was fantastic - I deposited £10 and once I had played with that I got another £10, and so did my mum. As I had never played online bingo before I tagged my mum around the site. She advised me to play from 8pm - 10pm in Island as most of the games were for 2p and 5p tickets and were BOGOF - so I bought a strip per game.
Lo and behold on my second night at Gala I won full house and had the fantastic sum of £120. I was able to withdraw £100 of this, and I carried on playing with the remaining £20. Over the following 2 months I won over £300 in total. I would say I had deposited maybe £50 to win this?
The site is laid out to allow for easy navigation - you can easily navigate around the different rooms, and you can check out timetables of all of the games playing - simply go to the main page and select "times and prices." This makes it much easier for you to be able to see where all the cheap games are playing.
If you like to buy your tickets in advance then this is possible on Gala - you can advance buy tickets up to one hour before the game plays - this makes it easier for people like myself who have children to look after and housework to do - not everyone can stay staring at the screen and individually buying tickets for every game.
On the main page of the gala website you can check out the present and the up and coming promotions available on the site. Normally there are 2 or more promos going on at one single time - this is not even including the free bingo on Thursdays. EXAMPLE: recently Gala ran a promo that if you played on the 1st February then you had the chance to win Dancing on Ice tickets. Brilliant promo for any avid fan like myself.
For those of you who are avid Sainsbury shoppers and collect your Nectar points then you are a winner every time you play Gala - for every £1 that you spend on Gala you will get 2 nectar points - simply take a few seconds to register your nectar card on the site and points will start accumulating as soon as your next deposit.
Free bingo on Thursdays is also very good - every week Gala give away £10,000 in total of cash prizes on the free games - from 6pm through to 11pm you have the chance of winning £1000 on their linked games. Now, alot of members can be seen playing the free games (normally 4000+), and you may think that you stand no chance of winning - but this isn’t the case - I have won over £100 from the freebie games alone, so it is definitely worth logging in for. Not to mention that there are so many peeps in chat to talk to during the games.
Gala Bingo website is not just about bingo games - you can also play a variety of games such as:
scratchcards dice games Monopoly Blackjack Poker Plus many more games - so there is variety for anyone joining this site - this makes a complete gaming experience for the avid online player.
So if I had to recommend any "cash" bingo site, then I would thoroughly recommend Gala - the members overall are friendly and helpful, the site is easy to get around and the prizes are not to be looked down on. What I will always say is gamble responsibly - remember that every time you put money into a cash site you stand the chance of losing it - there is no guarantees however great the site is.

I can see the traditional bingo halls closing down with the onset of online bingo and the smoking ban too. Nicely reviewed and great to see you back ~Fern xx

Only ever tried online bingo once, and won £38 from a £10 deposit, guess maybe I should see if my luck is still there
