This information was accurate when it was written but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all information directly with the casino.

For starters, you do not have to provide any debit or credit card details whatsoever.  No money is ever taken from you.  The website works on a points and stars system, let me explain.  Once you have provided WooHoo with a valid email address and set up your account, you will be credited with a number of points.  Each game of bingo costs an amount of points depending on the number of cards that you buy.  Your account will be recharged with a set number of points every 24 hours so you never run out of credit for long.  You can earn additional points and/or increase the amount of points for your recharge by completing challenges such as adding an image to your profile.  Most of the challenges are really straightforward and well worthwhile for the extra points but they are purely optional.

If you have a win on a bingo game then you will be awarded a number of stars and/or additional points.  WooHoo operate a shop within the website which allows you to spend the stars that you have won.  You can buy a variety of things such as Amazon £10 and £20 vouchers, chocolate and champagne hampers.  Very good and practical prizes for no money risk whatsoever, you really can’t beat that.

The chat is usually good fun too with a very social and friendly bunch of regulars and not so regulars.  Everyone is made to feel very welcome and the level to which you participate in chat is entirely up to you.

tombola.co.uk won the coveted Online Bingo Operator 2010 award at the 5th Annual Online Bingo Summit which took place in London this week.

The annual online bingo industry awards were held in the evening, Tuesday 8th June at the Victoria Park Plaza hotel in central London. Operators, affiliates and software providers attended the well respected event and voted from a short list of nominees.

tombola is the UK’s biggest online bingo site with more players than any other bingo site (source BingoPort) and also currently sponsors Emmerdale on ITV. “We have had an amazing last 12 months and are thrilled to win this award. Receiving recognition from within the industry for our recent achievements means a lot to us, we are really proud.” said Dawn Clayton, Head of Marketing at tombola.

It has been an exciting week for tombola as new Emmerdale idents are set to launch on Thursday 10th June. As with the last campaign tombola featured their players as the main focus of the bumpers to promote the community aspect of tombola.

A small group of players were taken away on a mini tombola holiday for a three day shoot where they did lots of activities including horse riding on a beach, salsa dancing, ten pin bowling, enjoying rides on a Victorian fun fair and much more! The bumpers were shot in a ‘fly on the wall’ format and the director captured some fantastic moments and fun times. These will be on air at the start, middle and end of each Emmerdale show on both ITV1, ITV2 and online.

More than £3m in cash prizes are won every week on tombola.co.uk. Dawn Clayton added: “Sponsoring Emmerdale, one of ITV’s leading brands, is a significant opportunity for tombola.co.uk. The show’s reach, the affection in which it’s held, and its values of drama, fun and community make it the ideal partner for the tombola brand and it’s wonderful that the players had such a great time on the shoot. Winning the online bingo operator award has topped it all off!”
