Beatle Bingo Review

Why would anyone want to play at Beatle Bingo? Well, why wouldn’t they? Take a look at the site. It’s pretty darn cute. That’ll be thanks to the colourful and anthropomorphic beetles who populate it.

These aren’t the sort of creepy crawlies that will have nervous souls running for cover; these are cute beetles that strum the lute and use toadstool caps as drums. If you’re wondering why the site’s name is Beatle and not Beetle, it’s because the spelling is designed to mimic that of British band The Beatles.

In keeping with the theme, the site’s logo features a pair of ladybirds upon a leaf. Without delving too deeply into the etymology of things, it would be fair to say that the word ‘beatle’ can be interpreted in many different ways here. Just know that unless you suffer an extreme aversion to even the cutest of creepy crawlies, Beatle Bingo is an adorable little site, one that will warm your heart and put a smile on your face – and that’s before you’ve won a shedload of cash playing bingo.

About Beatle Bingo

Developed in 2015, Beatle Bingo is the product of Cassava Enterprises, a Gibraltar-based firm with some experience of delivering British bingo. With an About page that bangs on about ‘lots of music and fun’ at a site ‘where cheering fans rock every game’, it becomes evident that the site is indeed inspired by The Beatles, only instead of the Fab Four, we have a selection of garden insects holding instruments and wielding the mic.

The site’s operators hold a gaming license issued by the government of Gibraltar, while 888 UK Limited, who handle their UK services, have a license granted by the Great Britain Gambling Commission. Virtual Digital Services Ltd perform the same role within the European Union. All of the games to be found at Beatle Bingo have been independently vetted to ensure fair play and honest payouts. As you’d expect, the site uses 128-bit encryption to keep its customers’ details secure.

Beatle Banking

Cassava Enterprises favour credit and debit cards at their multifarious bingo sites. They’re one of the quickest and most convenient means of topping up your Beatle Bingo account, whether you prefer to use Visa, MasterCard or Maestro. Deposits should clear instantly and withdrawals will take as little as 2 days to clear if you’re a UK MasterCard customer. All withdrawals, it should be noted, are subject to a 48-hour wait before the funds are released by the site.

For those who aren’t fond of credit and debit cards, there are a few other options to consider, including the tried and tested method that is bank transfer. You might prefer PayPal, ewallet service Neteller, Paysafecard or Entropay. Whatever method you select, note that the minimum withdrawal amount is £30. Bank transfer can take up to a week to clear but other methods will take around half as long on average.

Beatle Bonuses

To welcome you into the fold, Beatle Bingo has an introductory offer of a 150% bingo bonus and a 150% game bonus. To claim this 300% deal, simply sign up and deposit £10. You’ll wind up with a total of £40 to play with, a sum which is subject to an 80x wagering requirement before it can be withdrawn. This opening salvo of offers is eligible to both desktop and mobile players; Beatle Bingo is designed with the needs of smartphone and tablet owners in mind.

Once you’re a fully-fledged member of the site, there’s no shortage of bingo-based promotions to look out for. These ensure that every calendar month is blessed with a flurry of deals, offers and competitions designed to brighten up your day. Each weekend, over £700 in prize money is doled out, while seasonal promotions include a prize pot of up to £50,000.

The site also operates a loyalty points scheme, with points accrued on every deposit you make. These can later be redeemed for bingo tickets, but there are also 2 million points to be won every month, a total that is shared between 40 lucky winners.

Beatle’s Bingo Options

75-ball and 90-ball bingo are the two game types to be savoured at Beatle Bingo. Both variants should be familiar to anyone who’s ever played a game or two of bingo in their life, and in truth there’s not much between them. If you are unsure of the rules and how to play, there’s a complete playing guide provided on the site. It covers such topics as buying cards, daubing your numbers and winning. It even covers such scenarios as what to do if your internet is temporarily disconnected mid-game.

The chat facility that all players can access is an integral part of the bingo experience. Beatle Bingo employs chat moderators to keep things civil, though in truth the atmosphere is rarely anything but convivial. Newbies and experienced players alike should feel welcome in the chat rooms, where players gossip and exchange news while they tick off their bingo numbers. It’s not essential to use the chat facility, but few would dispute that it enhances the playing experience.

Slots and other Games

Beatle Bingo also has a selection of slots and instant win games. Unfortunately, there’s no means of viewing these without creating a playing account and logging in.

Fortunately there’s a workaround, because all Cassava Enterprises sites use the same games. Knowing this, and going by the images to be found on the homepage, it can be said for certain that the slots featured on Beatle Bingo include Gonzo’s Quest, Fluffy Favourites and Cleopatra. There are some progressive jackpot games too, with serious top prizes to be won, and some instant win games including scratch cards.

Rating

Beatle Bingo is a fun and characterful site whose theme is one of the more successful ones attempted by owners Cassava Enterprises. Regardless of whether you get the connection between The Beatles band and the beetles that scurry around at the bottom of the garden, the rendering of the concept is artfully done.

Bright, cheerful and brimming with cute, Beatle Bingo scores highly for aesthetics and overall mood. Beneath the surface it’s just another cookie cutter bingo site, but first impressions certainly count and looks do matter. In that respect, Beatle Bingo scores pass marks.

In terms of action, there are only a few criticisms that can be levelled against the site. It would be nice to have the option to view the available slots and other games before signing up. It would also be nice to see some more varied promotions, and a higher first deposit threshold. That aside, Beatle Bingo scores favourably across the board. There are more than enough bingo games scheduled night and day to keep players busy, and with tickets costing as little as 1p, you don’t need a bank loan to get involved. Sign up and prepare to rock out like the Fab Four as you immerse yourself in the wonderful world of Beatle Bingo.
