She went on to add, “We are thrilled with the way online bingo players across the UK have responded to our fun approach to online entertainment and now we’re in a great position to share our success with job-seekers in this region.”

Win a Wii & Wii Fit with Bingo ID

The Wii Fit was one of the most sought after gifts for Christmas and in some places it’s still hard to get hold of one! There’s good news for play live bingo players, however, from Bingo ID who are giving their players the chance to win a Nintendo Wii console and a Wii Fit in their January promotion. They are also offering 10 runners up prizes of £20 credit to your bingo account.

Entering the competition is easy, but it involves two steps!

Firstly you need to go to the “Promotions” section at Bingo ID and answer the question about Diana Moran (she used to do fitness stuff and they want to know what her nickname was). You need to email in your answer along with bingo player alias details.

The second part of the competition is that you must be an active player which means you must have made a successful deposit into your Bingo ID account before the closing date of February 1st. We’re not sure how much you need to deposit, but usually (from previous competitions) it’s £10.

Also new (ish) at Bingo ID is a social network section. You can join Bingoid and share photos, chat and links with fellow bingo players. It doesn’t seem to be that popular though as currently just over 80 members have signed up to share their bingo Ids!

Bingo ID are not the first bingo sites to try the old social network (aka a facebook style site) path as recently Wink Bingo launched their WinkMe network and last year Crown Bingo launched a social networking style community section too. It remains to be seen whether these options will appeal to bingo players or whether people will just stick to the likes Facebook for their socialising and photo sharing.
