Cashcade is one of the oldest and biggest names in online bingo world having been around since the early days of the industry.

Regular bingo players will be well aware that many bingo sites operate over a network. It gives smaller sites the chance to provide big ‘linked’ jackpots. This means that a particular room will be open to the whole network, regardless of which site each player is on.

There has always been a Cashcade Network consisting of what are considered ‘small’ bingo sites. However, Cashcade have now made the decision to move some of its more bigger and famous brands over to the network.

Rollover Bingo, Bingo Scotland, ITV Bingo and Mirror Bingo have always been stand alone bingo sites, but are now part of the network itself. They will continue to have their own promotions, but will now over much bigger ‘networked’ promotions.

Everyone has surely seen the latest big TV advertising campaign from Jackpotjoy featuring Barbara Windsor as the ‘Queen of Bingo’. There has now been a series of different adverts produced featuring different offers and games.

The noises coming out of JPJ suggest that the campaign is producing good results. However, they honeymoon is now over as one of the latest adverts has been banned by the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA). The ASA rules over all advertising medium in the UK, and must authorise all TV adverts before they make our screens.

The ad is question featured the ‘Star of Joy’, which was a bonus system which gave players the chance to win up to £10,000. All new players received a spin and there was a guaranteed prize on each spin.

The complaint made by players to ASA stated that the advert implied all new players would receive a cash prize, when it was in fact a free gift. In addition there was no clear statement that players needed to make a deposit before claiming the free spin.

The Star of Joy was removed not long after launch, details of why remain unclear, but it doesn’t look like coming back any time soon!

Because bingo has grown to be such a favourite way to pass the time (and try to go for the gold), there are several bingo halls directories online where you can search for the closest hall to you in the UK. Many of these directories also have destination maps and local transport information so that you can easily find your way to any bingo halls that might be in the area.

While we usually know the locations that are closest to us, quite often we may be out of town on a holiday or for work and would like to play an evening of bingo. It’s for times like these that bingo halls destination maps come in handy. Tidy little maps will pull up from sites like Map Quest International or Maporama and you simply find where you are going, the quickest route and whether or not there are any public transport systems you can take to get there.

Sometimes we have a bit of a tiff with the mates we play bingo with and would just like to find another location to play for a time or two. Bingo halls destination maps are a great asset when you just aren’t familiar with where other bingo halls are located. Whether you are looking for a bingo hall near you, or one where you intend to spend a holiday, you can easily find the location and hours of operation online. Then you won’t have to miss a single minute of play time, because you’ll find your way quickly and be at the table before the first ball is called. It’s all in the game!

Bingo is a favourite game around the world, but in each country you visit, the cards will probably be a bit different. Although the game itself is set up pretty much the same, with balls, a caller and a dabber (that’s dauber to Americans!) the cards will be quite different. In the US the columns are lined up 5 across spelling the word B-I-N-G-O, whereas in the UK, the cards are 9 columns by 3 rows (3 x 9).

Bingo halls in the UK will generally sell books of tickets (cards) and they may be colour coded, lime, gold, yellow, violet, grey, pink, blue, orange red and white, not necessarily in that order of course. They also sell multiple books of tickets that generally have 6 tickets of each colour. Experienced players can play all six tickets at the same time while newcomers may want to start out slowly with one or two tickets.

In some bingo halls across the UK, callers will call the balls quite rapidly so there is no time to search for your numbers if you are not quick about it! It is always best to start slowly, and get a handle on the game before trying to keep up with the balls. It is suggested that if you want to socialize a bit that you go to some of the bingo halls in the smaller villages and by the shore. In the cities the players are serious about their game and tend to be a bit more formal, but in the towns and villages, bingo halls are the local meeting places where you’ll get to meet the people and maybe win a prize or two!

While there are so many bingo halls around the UK, sometimes we just want to relax at home after a grueling day at the office. All we want is a quick cup of tea and a nice relaxing game of bingo (a site called Tea and Bingo even named themselves accordingly!). Chances are, some of the same friends you play bingo with at your favourite bingo halls might be online at the same time trying their hand at that coveted jackpot.

Actually, a good percentage of bingo halls have now set up online games as well. Some of the largest bingo halls would include Gala Bingo that has over 180 locations scattered about the UK, Mecca Bingo with at least 124, Carlton Bingo with about 19 bingo halls and Top Ten Bingo and Cascade Bingo Halls that have about a dozen locations. But, those bingo halls may also have online games for ‘in between times’ when all you want is a nice hot cup of tea and a quick game of bingo!

Bingo halls are great when you want a bit of socialising and a night away from the drudgery of everyday life. Meet up with some friends, have a laugh or two, share some gossip, and of course, play BINGO. It just depends on your mood. Sometimes you feel like getting out and about, and other times you just want to stay in where it’s nice and warm and cozy. Either way, bingo halls or online bingo, you can still play the game, chat with your friends and maybe win the prize of your dreams.

One of the great things about playing bingo in the UK is that many of our favourite bingo halls have locations throughout the entire land! Whether you are in the North of Scotland, or the South of Wales, there is always a great bingo hall, actually a great number of bingo halls, where you can enjoy your favourite game at a hall that will feel familiar to you.

The friends may be different and the caller may sound a bit odd, but the game will be the same, the rules of the bingo halls will be the same and you will feel like you are right at home. If you don’t know where to play, just hail a taxi and tell the driver, “Destination – BINGO!” He’ll get you there in no time flat.

If you would rather take the tube, just get on and ask anyone around you and you can be sure they’ll get you to the nearest bingo hall. (That might be just a ‘bit’ extreme, but bingo is quickly becoming the number one pass time, so someone will surely know!) Bingo halls are everywhere, some open every day of the week all year long. Just look in a local phone directory, or pull out your handy laptop or netbook and you can go online to find the nearest location.

Chances are, you’ll find the same bingo halls you frequent at home, and if by chance there isn’t a hall nearby, while you have the laptop on, just stay there and play bingo online!

Sometimes we feel like a quick game of bingo and don’t really feel like going to our usual bingo hall because we might get caught up chatting with friends and spending more time than we had planned. While a good game of bingo is always just what the doctor ordered, it doesn’t mean we want to spend hours at the hall. Or, maybe when out of town on a business trip we have a few hours to ourselves and what’s nicer than a lovely game (or two, or three!) of bingo!

The best way to find bingo halls in the UK is to actually search for them online. Some sites list literally every single bingo hall in the UK, and provide information on websites if those halls have them. You can find bingo halls in Wales, Scotland, England and Ireland. Some are open every day, and some have certain days of the week that they are open to play. It’s just a matter of doing a quick online search, getting the address and phone number, and you’re off to a great evening of fun.

Finding bingo halls is the easy part; tearing yourself away once you get there is a little trickier! Although we all just want a quick game or two, once the caller starts calling those balls, you’re in for the long haul, and hopefully the jackpot! Everywhere you go throughout the UK, there is sure to be a bingo hall that has the prizes you are looking for and at least one day a week where you can enjoy your favourite pastime – BINGO!
