Teletext Bingo is an online bingo parlor with a rather eye-catching visual design dominated by orange and purple. Along the top of the main page, you will find links to poker and casino games. As of this writing, the link to the poker site is not working. The link to the casino is functional, but it is rather difficult to tell at first the degree to which it is connected to Teletext Bingo. Those who run the casino would do well to clarify this, so that users have a better idea of exactly what they are signing up for.
The site also lays out its main principles clearly. Firstly, it supports the ideas behind Responsible Gaming, which means that limits on player deposits are programmed into the gaming software. Furthermore, it operates under a strict privacy policy, and the uses to which your information will be put are clearly stated under the Privacy Policy page.
Promotions and bonuses
First of all, this site offers new registrants what essentially amounts to a free trial. £1 will be added to your account, to be used on gaming. It can buy you ten tickets. Furthermore, there is a match bonus on your first deposit. The more you deposit, the bigger your bonus, all the way up to £125. Many of the side games also have bonuses attached, so you have an incentive to enrich your gaming experience through multi-tasking.
People who plan to stick with this site for a long time would do well to check out the VIP program. This program has three levels, so you have some degree of choice as to how far you want to go with it. This is a rather prudent way to go, so that players are not frightened away by the prospect of a strict all-or-nothing choice.
Casino's Games
Bingo is most definitely the center of attention at this site, in both its 75-ball and 90-ball varieties. Even so, there are also side games such as The X-Factor, a slots game based on the popular showbiz-focused TV show.
Safety and security
The security measures are rather standard for good online gaming sites. For instance, encryption here is of the 128-bit type. We may also consider the privacy policy as a good security measure, insofar as it is actually followed.
Support
The Help page on this site is very well-made (if narrow in scope) and informatively illustrated, so that even people with limited knowledge of computers can understand the instructions. The FAQ page, on the other hand, is much wider in scope. It tackles many issues, from transactions to security to legality. However, if neither of these pages gives you the answers you need, you can then approach the site staff via email or snail mail. There is a phone number for players in the UK to call, and another one for players based elsewhere in the world.
Language
Only English is available as a language option.
US Players
US players do not appear to be allowed.
