Bingo Win with us!
Claire Stonell, 48, from Sussex, was thrilled to hit the jackpot with prize bingo tickets
The funny thing is that I have never stepped foot in a bingo hall, but a few years back I joined Woman Bingo online and I am so glad I signed up. Now not only am I a big fan of the site, but I’m a winner too!
My big cash prize came in December 2016. I was playing traditional bingo in the Sapphire room when I won a small cash prize, plus 24 free tickets for a game called Playoff Palace. I was very excited because Playoff Palace is only held once a week, every Sunday at 9:15pm. It feels like a special event because it’s just for those players who have won tickets for it during the week on Sapphire.
On Sunday evening I logged in to join Playoff Palace. And I had not been playing long when my numbers came up… I was a jackpot winner from my prize tickets – and what’s even better is they were free!
I sat in shock for a moment – surely I hadn’t won the jackpot?
Huge selection
My account balance was £1,000 better off, and the chat room was abuzz with other players offering congratulations.
The win came just a few weeks before Christmas and with my daughter and her husband visiting us from Canada, it meant I could spoil them with more presents and splash out on nice food for the family.
When I told my husband and friends I had won, I still felt like I had to pinch myself.
Sometimes my husband has a few games on the site, buying bingo tickets every few months. It took me years to teach him how to use the laptop, but even he finds the site easy to navigate!
I had tried a few other sites, but hadn’t liked them, so when I heard about Woman Bingo, I thought I’d give it a whirl.
It wasn’t long before I found which games I loved the most. There is a huge selection including slots and bingo games. My favourites there are the bingo games because they are so varied, and the one I probably play the most is Sapphire bingo.
It’s not just the games either – with Woman Bingo, there are chat rooms that run alongside. It makes the site so sociable – sometimes I log in just for a natter! You get people talking about all sorts. It’s fun to just read all the conversations, even if you don’t take part!
Going to a bingo hall would mean catching the bus or driving into town, as well as needing a friend to commit to the night with you. But when you play online, you still get the chance to socialise, have a laugh and you can do it whenever suits you. I love being able to play from the comfort of my bed!
I log in a couple of times a week and make the most of the daily free games, which you can play after you have made your deposit and on which you can win cash and free spins.
In the time that I’ve been playing on the site, I’ve seen lots of other people win huge jackpots, many of them even bigger than mine. Sometimes I let my mind wander as to what I would do if I won £5,000 or £10,000. I would love to take my family away somewhere, escaping the horrible British weather and booking into somewhere hot to relax for a couple of weeks. Who knows, maybe one day it’ll happen. You have to be in it to win it!
