Shipleys Bingo Review
Shipleys Bingo is a name known in the world of land based bingo; there are clubs in Kidderminster, Redditch and Weoley Castle but now you can join in with the fun at the Shipleys Bingo online site. Powered by the G2 Gtech software on the St Minver network Shipleys Bingo offers a safe and secure gaming environment online. When you land on the home page you might not be overly impressed – it’s very plain and although the flash banner that takes centre stage does mention a little of what is happening at the site, it’s not enough to actually entice you in. As bingo home pages go, Shipleys Bingo is bland but like everything, you can’t judge a book by its cover right?
Unlike at other networked brands there was no issue registering an account with Shipleys Bingo despite having accounts at multiple other brands on the network and the first step of the registration process was pretty quick to complete. The only details required at this point was a name, username and password and date of birth along with a mobile number. Once registered you do have to choose a username for use in the chat rooms, a name other players and the chat host will refer to you as. Shipleys Bingo offer a £1 no deposit required welcome bonus but this is not added to your account until you click the activation link in your welcome email from the site. The bonus is then in your account instantly.
From the bingo lobby you can see all of the rooms that are available at Shipleys Bingo. The site offers 75, 80 and 90 ball games and you can see a plethora of information about each of the rooms from the lobby including the room name, time until the next game in each room, ticket price, number of players in the room, prize for the game and if any jackpot is available. This all helps you to choose a room that suits your personal requirements. Once you have chosen a room to play in a new window will open for the game, unfortunately they do take a little while to load. If you have played at a StMinver/G2 Gtech site before then the room layout will be familiar to you with your bingo cards to the right of the screen with the bingo call board above your tickets, chat is to the left of your screen with a selection of casino style games above chat and then game details at the top left of the screen. When a game is play you can see details of the players who are near to winning; in the top left hand of the screen you can see the players name, balls to bingo and then when it gets to them needing just one number to bingo, the number required is shown.
Shipleys Bingo does what all the other St Minver networked brands do, offer you a selection of games at varying ticket prices on a safe and secure gaming platform along with various progressive and static jackpots. The promotions at Shipleys Bingo are the same as at other sites on the network and include the Monster Bingo monthly game where you have five chances to win a share of a £10,000, value bingo and the site even offers free bingo days each month.
Shipleys Bingo online looked pretty good in the short amount of time spent at the site whilst compliling the review, one worth a visit.

The minimum deposit amount is £10 and the minimum withdrawal is £10 but if you have had any bonus, be it the free welcome bonus or cash match offers, you do have to meet wagering requirements of ten times your bonus. For example with your £1 free and an initial £10 deposit you would need to wager a total of £210 before you can make a withdrawal – £1 free + £10 deposit + £20 cash match bonus = £21 x 10.
