FREE ONLINE BINGO SITE LAUNCHED
12/01/2006

A free online bingo service has been launched for UK users, in the form of FreeBingo.

 

 

Claiming to be the first 90-ball bingo game which is free to play over the internet, the service offers a traditional British bingo experience and the opportunity to chat with like-minded players while logged in.

 

 

Phil Fraser, the managing director of FreeBingo, told Online Casino News that the social element of the new game is all-important.

 

He explained: "Currently we believe about 100,000 people play online bingo in the UK, but with the introduction of free sites like ours, we expect this to rise to around half a million by the end of the year.

 

"Because we are free we attract people who want to play just for the love of the game and also those who just want to chat. In fact, we are finding that the social and community aspect of playing online is one of its biggest attractions – something that by having a free site we are very keen to promote."

 

Upon logging onto the site, each player is presented with a balance of "Free Bingo Pounds" for use in the game – and, come the end of the month, each one that remains in a player's account qualifies as a prize draw entry for a number of big awards.
