Wink Bingo Review
About Wink Bingo
Wink Bingo takes pride in its bingo platform and strives to provide their players with "the best online gaming experience possible". The site features chat games, giveaways, promotions every day and big jackpots guaranteed. Wink Bingo is also recognised as being one of the friendliest and sociable bingo sites.
The site underwent a radical makeover in December 2014 that saw it launch a new colour scheme and even a new logo. In September 2016 the site was updated yet again and although it still has the familiar colour scheme the whole feel is a lot more 'grown up'. At the same time the site adopted the new style Dragonfish software just to add to the feeling of this being a whole new bingo site.
More changes took place in January 2018 and the 'real life' images were once again replaced by drawings and at the same time the site introduced 'Wink Rewards'.
Wink Bingo is one of the premium bingo sites available in the UK market today. This bingo site offers players an excellent selection of bingo, slots and instant games. A big attraction at Wink Bingo is the amazing variety of big cash jackpots and top of the line prizes on special bingo promotions all year round.
For a superior experience and innumerable chances to win top class prizes give Wink Bingo a try. Take advantage of its generous welcome bonuses and free bingo opportunities.

Social Media
Links to the Wink Bingo social media pages are available from the home page, indicating that they understand the significance of social media in the lives of its players.
Facebook: Usually quite active, the Wink Bingo Facebook page tends to go through peaks and troughs of activity. There tends to be lots of links to self help articles and a lot less bonus opportunities than you might expect from a brand that always seems to put the player experience first. You can also contact the site from here and expect a response within a few hours if you have a general query.
Twitter: Again links to interesting articles about gaming and about slot games, but a lot less promo codes and bonuses than were once so frequent.
YouTube: A great way to see how the Wink Bingo TV adverts have evolved and you can even go back to when the Dream Idols were brand ambassadors. The channel also includes details of many of the slot games that feature on Wink Bingo so you can decide ahead of time if you fancy playing.
G+: Pretty much the source of many of the articles that are featured on Facebook and Twitter.
Wink Bingo on mobile and tablet
Access Wink Bingo via any mobile device on the relevant mobile browser. The games are fully optimised for mobile play.
The layout of the mobile version of the site is simple and easy to understand. The navigation bar is located at the bottom of the screen and splits up the content into four categories - ‘Games’, ‘Bingo’, ‘My Wink’ and ‘More’.
Slot games and instant win games are all under the ‘Games’ section, with a huge selection to choose from, such as Rainbow Riches, Gonzo’s Quest and Imperial Destiny.
The bingo games are all under the ‘Bingo’ section, with a selection of different types available, such as 90 ball, 75 ball, Daily Jackpot and free bingo. The layout of the lobby is perfectly matched with the desktop version of the site and makes Wink Bingo on mobile very straightforward, simplistic and easy to use.
Wink Bingo has a selection of promotions available to their customers and all of them are in the ‘Promos’ section.
Everything else on this mobile bingo site is under the ‘More’ section. Such as, how to play, licensing information and settings.
If you wish to make a deposit, withdraw or set a deposit limit, simply tap on the separate ‘Banking’ section at the top of the screen.
Once in a bingo room there are three more options at the bottom of the page to enhance your game time while playing. There is 'Games', 'Chat' and 'Cards'. These give you the option to take part in the chat room antics, or to play from a massive selection of slots and instant games. Some will open to play within the room and others will take you away from the room, but there is no way of telling which will do what.
If you have chat or a game open you will see the numbers being called and how many numbers you have left to bingo in a panel at the top of the page so you know to click back to the game when you are getting close.
iOS App Store - Download the app from the App Store and quickly have the games one click away on your homescreen. It's quick and easy to download and operates in much the same way as described above.
Google Play - Wink Bingo operator 888 were among the first to take advantage of the Google Play Store opening up to pay to play games. Wink Bingo ofers 75 ball bingo, 90 ball bingo and the Flash Fives card game on its app, together with free bingo games and pre-buy options to jackpot games.
The chat function is fully operational and there is an extensive selection of slot games to choose from.
The app operates in much the same way as you would find it on your favourite mobile browser, it just offers faster access.
Android - Presently Wink Bingo does not provide an alternative way of download an app to your android phone, other than using the Google Play store.

I love Wink Bingo! I have been a member for a good while now and they have never let me down. The games are easy to navigate and the chat hosts are always welcoming and good fun. They also have some good chat games to make the game more interesting and Fred is pretty cool too... if you play Wink, you know who I'm talking about.- I've created my own Facebook group now for all us Wink Bingo players called "The Wink Bingo Hall" ;) I'm excited!

omg joined site tonight an got asked to send docs in for age ID, so had take photos an upload them, then download them - am 54 years old! Tried to ring them a couple times took a few calls to get through as no live chat from what i seen. In the end i got through and lady was nice enough, but by this time i had enough.
Why do these sites take your money then ask for id - it should be the other way around. not that am worried about proving my id or address, but never come across this like this before - its sat night thought I fancy bit bingo. i join this one. That was over a hour or so now i hate this site an want my money back an closeit, but told they have to send my docs off an up to 6 days to get money back in to paypal. well you took my money quick enough!
God all i wanted was a relaxing sat night off work an a few games bingo. Enough said am fuming an need go get some headache tablets - shocking is all i can say.User Rating:
Absolutely useless for slots. Every time you get bonus reel it freezes. as for the bingo never win as I play slots. end up having to abort as stuck too long.

Attempted to join up with 10.00 and receive the 50.00. extra.
Offered 25.00 and was asked a ton of pushy questions by 'Rai' who was rude, called me 'love' and made me feel angry.
Forget this one unless you want to be pressured into putting 20.00 as a deposit.

I thought I would try out Wink Bingo as it is the site of the month as they give you at least 50.00 to play with which is split 25.00 in bingo bonus, 10.00 in games bonus and then a min of 15.00 on the wheel spin which is put into your bingo bonus. I was expecting the min 15.00, but got 100.00, so have 140.00 to play with.
There are a lot of players on the linked free game so harder to win. Not liking the free newbie room. It's 75 ball so a pattern only room. Only ever won 7.50 during my 3 day access to this room. Other freebie rooms have 100s of players and not worth playing because of this.
A good point you do get loyalty points with every card you buy and need 1,000 for 1.00 bonus. I did found a cheap room where I could play games for less than 5p a game and did win a few time in this room. Not a high paying game, but you can win your money back, but if you don't depo after a week you are locked out.
Loving the Millionaire Genie slot game which I play for a min 15p a spin not many or if any sites give you game bonuses and after nearly 2 weeks still not used up my games bonus.
You have to have at least depoed 20.00 into your account before you can withdraw any winning and as I only depoed 10.00 can't yet. Support were happy that I quickly sent them my ID and thank me for that within 24 hrs of me sending it less than 2 weeks after joining
and I still have 80.00 left to play with, split between my bingo and gaming bonus. All in all loving this friendly site and will keep coming back.Wink Bingo username: Rondog111

Wink Bingo back in the day used to be a really good bingo site, good background (dark purple), the graphics and sounds were exclusive, which adds to the excitement playing on the bingo site. Using the chat feature were also easy with good chat games paying 1000lps most games, = £1 bonus.
All of Wink BIngo's rooms use to be exclusive and standalone, meaning they ain't linked up to any other bingo site. The only games that would link up were some of the seasonal big money games with the Joy Of Bingo Network (888ladies, Redbus, etc).
With the new layout of Wink Bingo, it has been designed to what it looks like if you played via mobile/tablet. The background has changed to a pale white, the bingo caller and graphics are the same as on all the Dragonfish websites now. There has been a loss of exclusive rooms, with most rooms now being linked. The rooms that are exclusive play for a minimum of £1.95 and you don't get many players at all now.
The site has also seen a loss of chat games, the hosts take around 5 minutes to answer your questions as nobody chats no more, and the live support takes their time to answer your queries.
As per the recent TV advertisement, Wink Bingo states that it now rewards "your bingo time into shopping time". New players were credited with 1,000 'Wink Rewards' when depositing £10 or more, enough Wink Rewards to redeem against a £10 gift card.. A few months after the advertisement off-aired, ALL the vouchers have been out of stock, meaning players would have to redeem them for free bingo tickets and bonus funds. Gift cards have been out of stock for almost 2 months now from writing this review.
I use to love the '£100's of £100's' Promotion Wink Bingo use to have where they played a game worth £100 every hour, on the hour, 24/7. Some games were 5p, 10p and some were also free for £100 cash! - A quick YouTube search of the promotion name will show you the advertisement of this. Of course, this has now stopped as not many players play on Wink Bingo exclusive rooms no more.
Wink Bingo now feels like you are playing on a standard Dragonfish bingo site, and I wouldn't recommend you try the site out. If you so then good luck as always!Wink Bingo username: Kaiabson

Dont play at this site. purchases cards that you dont request and then they dont give you the money back. There response is that they have never had any other reports of this, however speak to the players in the chat rooms and they most of them will tell you it has happened to them as well.
They send e-mails about it and get no response. Their policy is they do not refund on card that have been purchased which is fair enough if you have requested to purchase them, but when there site is purchasing cards you dont request it is a bit rich.User Rating:
Well done Wink, you have turned what used to be the best bingo site into the worst now.
The new look and format as of March 2017 is shocking.
You enter a room it doesent say who the host is, it doesent say what the chat game is, there is no longer a chat list there, you used to be able to see who was playing in that room, there is no live help, no gift option anymore.
I have been a member for 5yrs and its so sad to see it go downhill.User Rating:
This is easily the worst bingo site have tried so far. Very poor prize money, takes a huge slice of the cake for itself. Other sites such as Sky, Betfred and Mecca offer a much fairer prize pot, Wink Bingo is extremely greedy.
Additionally, new customer offers sound good on paper, but are designed to make withdrawing any winnings almost impossible.Avoid.
