‘Cos B is for bonus and we know how much you all love bonuses. So just to remind you, here’s details of two of our great bonuses…
WEDNESDAY NIGHTS ARE MIDNIGHT SOMEWHERE NIGHTS!
Each Wednesday night we offer a special deposit bonus of between 110% and 190%, available to all players who deposit between 10 PM and 1 AM. The bonus amount is determined by a random player playing in Money Tree during the 9 PM full house game. We announce it in chat and also across the top of your game screen.
Make sure to mark Wednesdays on your calendar, and take advantage of this great weekly deposit special!
100% MINIMUM DEPOSIT BONUS WITH OUR CREDIT REBATE FEATURE!
All deposits attract at least 50% bonus - or more, depending on your loyalty level. But it doesn’t stop there. Our unique Credit Rebate feature offers you the option to receive an additional 50% bonus on ALL of your deposits.
If your total balance (cash and BPs) falls below £2 and you haven’t requested a withdrawal, you can claim a rebate.
And unlike some sites out there, we don’t make you roll up one trouser leg and hop on the other foot whilst turning in circles, patting your head and chanting “Rebate. Rebate.” (although it might make for some interesting videos for the blog!)
No - claiming your rebate is easy-peasy. All you do is:
- Click on the “Extra” button located above the bingo board in any room,
- select “Extra Specials“,
- then “Features“,
- then “Credit Rebate Special“.
Just make sure you claim your rebate before making another deposit.

The switch to the common platform was planned in advance and designed to be as smooth as possible. We know that we didn’t get everything right first time and we’re very sorry for the inconvenience.
We’ve taken on board all your comments and although few of them have appeared on the blog recently, they are all being read by Monty and digested. We are reviewing things and making some changes where possible.
We’ve continued to adjust our bingo schedules over the past week and have made some exciting changes that we think you’ll love! We’ve had great feedback from our loyal players, and we’re here to tell you we’ve heard you all.
• More two and three-part games in all rooms
• More Jump and Jive games with bigger prize potential!
• Increased prizes across the board with high minimum prizes all day to make sure your bingo playtime is paying dividends!
Please keep your comments flowing in the coming days and weeks, the time you take is appreciated!
CAROLE10 IS £5,908 QUID RICHER!!!!
We want to congratulate carole10 on her astonishing win of our SkyHigh Jackpot on February 17!! Carole won the Money Tree fullhouse game in just 38 calls, and nabbed our PJP and the fullhouse grand all at once! Well done to Carole, whose new favourite lucky number is 83, we think!
We hope you all enjoyed the Valentine’s Day prize board and special games, and we have more in store. Keep your eyes on your inboxes and on the blog over the coming week or so, as we’ll be announcing some of the great things planned for March.
We’re in the final stages of planning these exciting promos and, although we can’t give too much info away, a little bird tells me that Mothers Day will be extra special this year.

Over the past week, our blog posts have described the changes coming to BingoMania this Tuesday (10 February). Yesterday, we provided a sneak peak at some of the new games we’ve cooked up for you. Today we reveal our re-imagined BingoMania rooms.
When you login on Tuesday, you’ll be greeted with four shiny new bingo rooms:
Lucky Streak: 75-ball 10p bingo, open 24 hours & hosted 6am-1am
Madhouse: 75-ball 25p bingo, open & hosted midday to midnight
Money Tree: 90-ball 20p bingo, open 24 hours & hosted 6am-1am
Dream Catcher: 90-ball 10p bingo, open & hosted midday to midnight
These bingo rooms and game schedules aren’t just new to you — they are being introduced on Tuesday to all players on the common platform for the first time. This means that everyone will discover new fun together (and you won’t be the only one a bit dazzled by change).
With the move to a common platform, you’ll be playing alongside your fellow BingoManiacs as well as new friends who have entered through other sites on the network. Players come through different doors, but all arrive at a fun and friendly bingo community we’ll all call home. As the saying goes, there is strength in numbers. You’ll play for larger prizes, enjoy a wider circle of friends, experience a greater variety of games and promotions, and most importantly have more fun!
While some of the room names may be new and the structure a bit different, inside you’ll find what you’ve come to love at BingoMania: exciting bingo and chat games, a caring community and friendly chat hosts (old and new). You’ll see many familiar faces in the expanded chat team as most of your favorite GMs make the move to the common platform. TartanTerror will continue to head the team. Womble, Poppy, Tigerlily and Sparkle will also continue with us and we’ll all work hard to make the transition as seamless as possible. Unfortunately, not all of the BingoMania GMs were able to be accomodated in the schedule. We’ll greatly miss the GMs who won’t be returning and wish them all the very best for the future.
On the jackpot front, come Tuesday you’ll see some massive progressive jackpot amounts available to be won on almost every bingo game played! The amounts from our existing jackpots will be combined with other jackpots on the network to form two new mega pots. As long as there are no jackpot wins before Tuesday, we’re looking at a new 75-ball “Big Ticket” jackpot with a prize of over £7,500 and a new 90-ball “Sky High” jackpot with a prize of over £4,000!

One of the things that has long been an issue at BingoMania UK is the BBs that are awarded in chat. As you all know, BBs are supposed to be a reward from us, to you, to help make chat a brighter, more fun place to be. They are not supposed to be a way for players to delay depositing as long as possible. We had already been trying to find a fairer way to distribute chat BBs, but the change to a common platform has provided us with a solution which is fair to all.
Before you all start thinking this is a bad change, this is will also allow you to do something you have never been able to do in the past: keep some, or all, of your bonus and still withdraw (see below).
Firstly, chat BBs will now look slightly different. The silvery BB is being replaced by the shiny new golden BP, which is worth the same amount (1BP = £1BB) but prettier.
Secondly, chat BPs will be awarded in a much fairer way. We don’t really think it’s fair that someone with 1 card gets the same amount of BPs as someone with 6 cards. After all, the more you put in, the more you should be able to get out. So the way it will work is like this:
- If you have 5 or more cards you will get 100% of the Chat Game BP award
- If you have 4 cards you will get 90% of the Chat Game BP award
- If you have 3 cards you will get 80% of the Chat Game BP award
- If you have 2 cards you will get 70% of the Chat Game BP award
- If you have 1 card you will get 60% of the Chat Game BP award
The third change is that to be eligible for chat BPs you will need to have made a deposit in the past 14 days. For the vast majority of players this change will have not any effect at all, as most of you deposit at least twice a month anyway. Chat BPs are also subject to a maximum of 30 per day.
Our minimum withdrawal amount will go up very slightly from £20 to £30. This will help to keep down the costs involved in processing withdrawals and leave more funds for greater bonuses. The really good news is that if you have deposited £100 or more on BingoMania UK since you first joined the site, you will be able to keep some (or all) of your bonus and still make a withdrawal. You can protect your bonus by leaving the same amount of cash in your account as you have in bonus. As an example:
Let’s say that you have £45 of bonus and £150 cash in your account.
- If you withdraw £105 and leave £45 cash in your account, you can keep the whole £45 bonus.
- If you withdraw £125 and leave £25 cash in your account, you can keep £25 bonus.
- If you withdraw £150 you will lose your entire bonus, just as you do now.
In summary then, a change to a fairer way of awarding chat game bonuses and being able to protect your bonus when you withdraw.

One of the biggest questions that everyone has right now is why things are changing. The simple answer is that by moving to a common platform, we have to accommodate some of the existing ways that the network does things. In return, they will be accommodating some of our ways. Some things will change and some will stay the same. Just remember – not all changes are bad.
We know that you’re all desperate to know what changes are coming up, so we’ll highlight just one or two each day to give you all the chance to ask questions. Today, we are going to look in-depth at the loyalty levels and deposit bonuses (which are closely linked).
The loyalty levels will be changing slightly and, especially if you like the slots, points will now be easier to gain. You will still get 1 point for every £10 you spend on bingo. However, instead of getting 1 point for every £80 spent on casino games (slots, keno, video poker etc) you will now get 1 point for every £45 spent on casino games.
Players who are currently levels 1 to 6 will not notice any difference, but players who are levels 7 to 10 will either stay the same level or, in a number of cases, jump up a level. Here’s a breakdown to see how it works:

Monthly Loyalty Gift: The network does not offer a monthly loyalty bonus but instead rewards players with everyday bonus policies that leave more bonus in your pocket each day. This month will be the last month for loyalty bonus, after that it will be discontinued.
Deposit bonus: This will still be related to your loyalty level. As the levels now need fewer points to reach, and points are easier to accumulate, quite a few of you will see the actual percentage of bonus you receive on your deposits increase.
Another change for the better is that following the transition your deposit bonus will qualify immediately – no more waiting until you have spent 95% of your deposit.
