Here at Fantasy Bingo HQ we have been in touch with the owners of a brand new bingo site named XBingo. The glitzy new bingo product comes from the same award winning team that brought us one of our favourite bingo sites Costa Bingo but it has some key differentiators. Instead of using third parties to provide game software, services and hosts like almost every other site, the cash rich team have decided to do everything in house. They have produced their very own bingo software that has been heavily developed and is exclusive to XBingo, all chat hosts and support staff are part of the XBingo team. The site is also licensed in the Isle of Man, which means it has passed extremely stringent operator requirements and is very well regulated.

So what does this mean to their players? Well, this means that the site has the most in common with Gala Bingo with respect to the way it is run, except with a smaller team. Ultimately it means you get that human touch whenever you communicate with their team, which often can be critical when money is changing hands over the net.

Also, with new proprietary software come some key advantages. The development team have had the opportunity to study all of the good and bad points about the most successful bingo game software available and have come up with a very usable, fun and polished product. The other advantage is the advertised jackpots can only be won through XBingo, whereas most other sites that spread the jackpots are spread over a network of different sites. Also, XBingo has charged their progressive jackpot with an industry challenging £3m so big money is up for grabs from the go.

The site was launched a couple of months back and we didn’t report on it back then as there are so many new sites we see almost every day but after a couple of months we can now see that they are becoming a major player very fast with floods of new players.

To kickstart the XBingo are offering £5 free of bingo money just for registering. If you decide to make an initial deposit it will be quadrupled with a 300% bonus. For reloading you get a 50% bonus. VIP tickets to see Rihanna at the o2 arena in London are also available to be won by a lucky player.
