Woman's Own

‘I won £1,000 in minutes ’

’ve always loved bingo and still play once a fortnight at my local bingo hall. But now I’ve found a new way to play that I enjoy just as much.

I’ve been a member of Woman’s Own Bingo for the past five years. I first heard of the site when my granddaugh­ter, who’d played on it a few times, bought me a laptop and showed me how to set up an account.

The games are just like at the bingo hall, with cash lines up for grabs and huge full-house jackpots. I’m not a computer whizz by any means, but I soon got the hang of the site.

That was years back and now I log in of an evening to have a go on the daily play games. My favourite by far is Double Bubble, a fun slot game.

II also really like Emerald Bingo and Bingo Royale. When I play, I only ever get one ticket for 10p. But in November 2016, I logged in one evening and for no real reason decided I’d buy two tickets. I started my game in Emerald and got comfy and ready to play.

Just so excited

Each week I can choose a daily play game. It means you get to try the games out and you can win lots of free spins, free tickets and even cash. I won £10 on it just this weekend! I’d only been logged in for a matter of minutes, if that, before my screen began to buzz with activity... I’d only spent 20p in total, and I’d hit the £1,000 jackpot in Emerald Bingo! I couldn’t believe my luck. Thrilled, I ran upstairs to tell my son the news. ‘I’ve won £1,000 on the bingo!’ I cheered. Some people might have been rendered speechless by such exciting news, but not me! Picking up the phone, I called my other son and my daughter to share the news. I was just bubbling with excitement. When the excitement began to die down a little, I went back to check my account and withdraw the money. With Christmas around the corner and my three-year-old granddaugh­ter to buy for, I wasted no time in getting to the shops. She’s really into her dolls, so I was able to treat her to some of the ones I knew she wanted. I was able to treat my kids too with lots of nice gifts. I got so much pleasure sharing my winnings with my family I can’t recommend Woman’s Own Bingo enough. It’s easy to pick up, you can play when it suits you, and there’s a huge choice of games, too.
