Vic Reeves is probably not the first celebrity you'd think of when it comes to promoting bingo. However, for some reason the former funny man and star of Shooting Stars and I'm a Celebrity in a dress is the foil for 888Ladies Bingo, the bingo arm of 888 Casino and Pacific Poker. Using Globalcom's bingo software you'll be familiar with the workings of 888Ladies Bingo if you've played at Foxy Bingo, Loquax Bingo or Mirror Bingo for example. New players can get £10 free play, no deposit, when they register and this gives them access to 75 ball and 90 ball bingo rooms, as well as instant win games and slots.
Community is the key to making 888Ladies different, and you'll find Team Bingo and even a Ladies Lounge (which promotes fashion stuff). There's a nice beginner's guide to bingo tutorials as well as information about bingo lingo and chat etiquette.
888Ladies did try and bling up the bingo calls, but for some reason they've hidden those away - perhaps they just didn't catch on?
Will this site catch on? Possibly, but it does seem to be a bit anti-bloke bingo, even just by name. The £10 bonus is nice and there's a huge £888,888 jackpot on offer too. One to watch over time as we'd expect 888 to build up their bingo site to match the success of their casino and poker services.
