A Quick Look at Scary Bingo

BOO! Now that we have grabbed your attention it’s time to read our review of Spooky Bingo, another bingo site on the 888/Cassava network. This unique Halloween-themed site has plenty to offer, including free bingo, weekly jackpot games, an excellent loyalty scheme plus lots of slots. Read on … if you dare!

Games & Software

This site will hold no fear for lovers of both 75-ball and 90-ball bingo, as games start up across the board in the eight bingo rooms that are available. There are also two 52-ball bingo games if you like something different. One of these games is played with playing cards, while the other is played with candies. With the ’52-Candy’ game your bingo card is actually a selection box. If you can fill your box using the candies that are drawn, then you’re the sweet winner of the top bingo prize.

Some of the 75-ball bingo games double up as ‘pattern bingo’ where an extra prize is awarded to the player whom completes a specified pattern upon their bingo card.

Bingo cards in some of the available rooms can be purchased for as little as 1p, and the ‘Daily Doozey’ bingo room has free bingo games from 7pm until 10pm, every night of the year.

Slots & Casinos

• Video slots, instant win games, table games.
• 5-reel slots, roulette, baccarat, keno, scratch cards.

How to Deposit & Cash Out

Depositing

Available here to use as a payment method are debit cards, Paysafecard, PayPal, Apple Pay or wire transfer. Some areas of the site suggest that Neteller is accepted too, but according to the T&Cs it is not. The minimum accepted deposit is £5.

Cashing out

Withdrawing can only be done via Visa Debit, MasterCard Debit (UK only), PayPal. The minimum accepted withdrawal is £5. There are some complicated rules about withdrawal limits within the Scary Bingo T&Cs which you might want to review. Withdrawals take between four business days and nine business days to complete, depending upon your chosen method.

The good news here is that you can withdraw as little as £5 at this site. The scary news is that a withdrawal will take at least four days to process.

The Community & Customer Service

There is one thing that you should never be scared about at this site, and that’s the fact that you will never be short of bingo buddies to play with. Scary Bingo is powered by Dragonfish software and forms part of the 888/Cassava Enterprises network. This means that when you enter a bingo room here, you are joining with dozens and dozens of players across multiple sites, as long as they are on the 888/Cassava network.

If this all sounds a little overwhelming, then there’s no need to be afraid. Despite the high numbers the bingo rooms they are not overrun by chatter, as only a friendly few get nattering. You are virtually guaranteed to make some new bingo buddies, and the experienced chat hosts are on hand to make sure that everyone behaves themselves.

The hosts will also award random prizes if people are having a bit of a losing streak and will welcome everyone to the room with a cheery hello. It all adds to a rather spooky sense of being entertained.

This is a site with a limited selection when it comes to customer contact. You can email them via onsite form and they will respond within 72 hours.

Take Scary Bingo with You

You can hunt all over the site for the Scary Bingo app, but you’re more likely to be successful if you were to go ghost hunting during broad daylight. However, this is not something that should put the heebie-jeebies up you as you can still play at Scary Bingo on your smartphone or tablet.

To access the Scary Bingo mobile site, all that is required of you is to head to the site’s welcome page using a browser on the device that you want to play from. This mobile-optimised version of the Scary Bingo site works superbly on mobile, and there’s no advantage to desktop players over mobile ones. Make sure you have a resilient internet connection when playing but don’t worry if you get disconnected mid-game. Your bingo card will continue to be marked while you reconnect, and any prize you win will be credited to your account.
