Internet Bingo Tips
So you have read about playing internet bingo, or maybe heard a bingo site mentioned in the bingo hall, and you are thinking of giving it a try.
Before you rush out and sign up with the first internet bingo site that you can find, read these tips for new players at bingo sites:
Bingo sites and PIN number? What's that?
In many cases the bingo site's cash-out policies are reasonable, albeit a little inconvenient. Many of them issue the user a unique identification number, a PIN that you need in order to initiate a cash-out.
Often your PIN number comes via regular postal mail from the internet bingo site which can be annoyingly slow. The theory is that it's for your own good since receiving it confirms that you actually live at the address that the bingo site has in their database. It also helps the bingo site avoid fraud. Whatever, it's become part of the way many online bingo sites do business so you're probably just going to have to get used to it.
What does it cost to play at a bingo site?
Many internet bingo sites will charge you a fee for your withdrawals. Some bingo sites charge a flat rate, a few charge a percentage, and almost all bingo sites will charge you more if you want your money "right now thank you very much".
It's well worth your time to read your online bingo site's page of "Banking" or "Withdrawals". The vast majority of bingo sites are quite reasonable in their withdrawal charges, but you never know until you know. If it's not clear, email or phone them and find out what the deal is.
Hidden fees at bingo sites
So the check is in the mail…
Maybe, but again, it depends on the details. For example, depositing an Australian check at a Swiss bank may incur further costs and even take weeks to clear. Make sure that you get paid in your own currency!
We've known people to be hit with stiff transaction fees when they ask their bank to process a check drawn on a foreign bank. The very best payout plan we've seen lately is the Instant Withdrawals via Neteller. This option is only available at a very few internet bingo sites but we expect to see this payout option becoming much more popular in the future.
