Circus Bingo

Site Summary

It all kicks off with a welcome from Pablo – a peanut with a moustache and top hat that also happens to be your guide/mascot. A Dragonfish site this may be, but to look at it you’d be forgiven for thinking it was powered by something completely new – it really doesn’t look or feel like anything else out there. Is this a good thing? Well, it certainly gives it uniqueness and there’s no denying it’s a cool, quirky and colourful theme – all off to a good start!
Now, one thing that does immediately grab your attention is the way in which page loading times aren’t all they might be. You’re not waiting an age, but switch to the casino from the bingo pages for example and it’s a bit sluggish. Given the fact that there were only 586 players online at the time we checked it out, it’s a bit on the slow side. The layout is a bit different to the norm, but we actually really liked it. It’s really easy to get where you need to be and the use of the sidebar is interesting. It’s likely to be one of those things you love or hate – all personal preference.

Upon joining, deposit £10 and you’ll be given the opportunity to pop Pablo’s nuts and win up to £5 in free bonus money. Other than this, there’s currently a welcome deposit match bonus offer of 500% available, meaning you credit your account with £10 and get £60 to play with. Wagering requirements are set at 4X, which is about the average for bingo sites these days. There’s a full 50 free spins up for grabs too – also subject to wagering requirements on winnings.
Over in the VIP section, depositing nothing will land you with Peanut status, up to £49 makes you a Ring Master, £50 to £199 and you’re a tightrope walker while £200+ makes you a lion tamer. The level you choose will determine which goodies come your way, including monthly cashback deals, tickets to high-jackpot events, free spins, free bingo and so on. Speaking of which, there are loads of totally free bongo games on the go most of the time, with prizes in the region of £1 – still not bad for a freebie. Also perfect for newcomers looking to learn the ropes.

They do mention a mobile app, but at the time of writing it still says it’s coming soon. Still, the mobile version of the website is pretty great on the whole. As for customer care, these guys go the whole hog by offering full 24/7 opening times across live chat, telephone and email services – the team when put to the test seems well above par.

If you’re looking for something a little different, probably the best thing about Circus Bingo in general is how the theme takes a step away from the norm. It’s very engaging and immersive on the whole and has clearly been put together by those with plenty of experience and savvy. The action is great and varied, the on-going promos are good and the customer care team is excellent.

In a nutshell, Circus Bingo scores highly in pretty much every key area and is therefore more than worth a visit. The welcome bonuses may not be great and player numbers may dwindle at quieter times, but if you can look past these slight niggles, then the rest of the package is solid and impressive. But then again, as a site that’s owned and operated by the iconic 888 Group, what else would you expect?
