Online Bingo Community Connects for Tsunami AppealOnline Bingo Community Connects for Tsunami Appeal
February 11, 2005 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
The group, all members of the popular chat rooms at BingoBallroom.co.uk have clubbed together and donated loyalty points earned by playing online bingo to the appeal. The owners of BingoBallroom.co.uk say the generosity of their online bingo players, known affectionately as “roomies”, moved them to match the gift hence donating a total of £12,660 to the Disaster Emergency Committee in the UK.
Online bingo player Sue.S tells us “It was really simple to raise this money between us. All of us in the chat room just donated our loyalty points to the cause for a few days rather than cashing them in for extra online bingo cards”.
Online bingo communities such as BingoBallroom.co.uk are set to grow as a threat to traditional bingo halls as the online bingo and chat software becomes increasingly sophisticated and user friendly and the prizes just get bigger and easier to win.
BingoBallroom.co.uk offers a 100% match on a new player’s first deposit and 50% extra on subsequent deposits even before awarding thousands of bingo loyalty points. These can then be used to purchase online bingo cards and increase your chances.
Online Bingo prizes are set to outstrip those of traditional bingo halls also with the biggest bingo jackpot in the UK to be released on the BingoBallroom.co.uk next month.
