Loadsa Bingo is one of the original members of the bingo network and operated on the Cassava/Dragonfish platform. Loadsa, along with its sister sites, were taken over by 888 a few years back and since then it’s not been the most comfortable of rides.
Loadsa used to be a “go to” place for free bingo and boasted a £100 free cash prize game every evening at 9.15pm. Again this has changed but the site still offers plenty of freebies for depositing players.
These include a £250 Sunday Mobile game, £1000 game every Monday and The 10 Minute Stop where you can play for small prizes at selected times during the day. All Loadsa Bingo’s free games can be found under the “Free Ride Tab” via the lobby.
As well as free bingo you’ll find 90 ball, 75 ball pattern and 75 ball 5 Line Bingo rooms. There are progressive jackpots too as well as all the usual slots. Among the titles to look out for are Jackspot, Millionaire Genie, Fluffy Favourites and Imperial Destiny.
Among the big bingo games are £150 Monday Mania, £30 Rush Hour and £1500 Bingo Payday! There’s also The Daily Unwind Room which has recently been opened and offers exciting games from 4pm each day.
Loadsa Bingo New Players Offer
Even before a deposit is made all new players get to play free bingo. Check out the Free Ride tab in the lobby and get exclusive access to the ‘New Passengers’ freebie room for 3 days from registration.
This 75 ball bingo room offers a £20 jackpot game every hour from 7am to 10pm. Prizes are made up of bonuses and LPs.
Loadsa Bingo Types of Games
Players can choose from both 90-ball and 75-ball games and play progressive jackpots; the 75-ball progressive is called the London Eye, and you’ll need to get a full house in 45 calls or less; the 90-ball progressive is the Double Decker jackpot, where players who cover their cards in 37 calls or less will win big.
You can also enjoy playing free, penny and team bingo with great prizes and bonuses to play for.
Loadsa Bingo Other Games
If you fancy taking a break from ball games, there is an exhaustive collection of instant games, casino games (blackjack, roulette and video poker), themed slots (including Bejeweled and Sands of Fortune) and five progressive slots for high rollers, where you might win £50,000!
Trusted to the End
Despite the faults we opened with regarding design and first impressions, Loadsa Bingo is undoubtedly as secure as they get, which should be enough to reassure anyone.
SSL Connections are used throughout, and there are also both UK and international phone numbers given out for anyone in need of getting in touch with those working behind the scenes, something that is welcomed by us, but frequently overlooked.
Conclusion
Loadsa Bingo is definitely not for everyone – whether you want to spend much time here really comes down to whether or not you want to play bingo. The problem, if you don’t, being the distinct lack of alternatives.
There are games here that are not bingo, but not many, and the real focus is on the calling of numbers and the ticking off of cards.
If, on the other hand, you can’t wait to buy your first card, then this is definitely one of the better choices out there – the bingo is good, varied and incredibly moreish, particularly when it comes to the faster-paced rules, which we enjoyed the most.
The loyalty system looks to be solid, and the number of promotions means there’s always something new going on from day to day, which is definitely a plus point if you’re talking about encouraging repeat business. After all, it’s not like there aren’t hundreds, or more likely thousands of other bingo websites out there just waiting for us to sit down, pick up the proverbial pen, and start trying to win big.
