One of the first online bingo networks has today closed down. The US-facing WorldBingo Network first set up 10 years ago way before bingo in the UK was established.
WBN's first site was Bingoworkz and it was the start point for the internet's first linked sites creating a network. Today there are (were !) four main sites within the group (Bingo Tropic, DesperateHousewives Bingo and USABingo alongside Bingoworkz) but there were 20 or so sites at the group's peak.
Online gambling in the US is currently facing lots of problems where processing payments for online gaming is illegal (although playing isnt). Less than a month ago, as we reported here, a number of very high profile poker sites were closed down, whilst only this week a series of sites had their domains taken by the US authorities, including a long established US-facing online bingo site called FuntimeBingo.
On each of World Bingo Network's sites, as well as the company's main site, the following message appeared;
It is with great sadness that we announce the closure of World Bingo Network and all sites.
Our doors close at noon EST on May 27, 2011.
A challenging environment and circumstances beyond our control have made it impossible for us to continue operations. It is our intention to ensure that all players are taken care of and deposits refunded at the earliest possible time. All players will be receiving letters in this regard.
We have fond memories of great people, wonderful staff and fun times while they lasted.
WBN Management.
WhichBingo attempted to contact the owners of World Bingo Network but at the time of writing we hadn't heard back from them. As we have more news we will let you know.
This of course does not affect any UK online bingo sites. If you'd like to play at a new online bingo site try our New Bingo Sites page.
