Review: Dotty Bingo

If you asked the average person to name some of the most well-known bingo sites, the chances are that Dotty Bingo wouldn’t feature in their list. However, this site shouldn’t be underestimated. Though the site is small, it comes packed with a variety of promotions for members new and old; it’s accessible and easy to navigate; and its promotions calendar is useful for checking out when the next big offers are coming!

The site offers a decent range of bingo and slot games—and, with the option to play both at the same time, you’re sure to be entertained! So, don’t be put off if you haven’t heard of Dotty Bingo before—it could end up being your new favourite!
 

Welcome Bonus Package

Dotty Bingo certainly likes to offer new members a generous welcome bonus—we think it’s off to a great start!

If you sign up to Dotty Bingo and deposit £10, you can play with £40!

And if that’s not enough for you, Dotty Bingo is also throwing you 100 free spins!

All in all, it’s clear that Dotty Bingo wants to make a big impression!

Pros

• Promotions are constantly updated
• Calendar for bingo promotions
• Nice range of payment methods

Cons

• A small site
• No social media
• Not entirely mobile-compatible
• Doesn’t offer the huge jackpots that big-name sites can offer
   

Bottom Line

For a small site, Dotty Bingo certainly likes to make a big effort. It’s not content to just offer one welcome bonus—it wants to make sure you have a variety. And with a constant stream of updated promotions, members are certain to stay satisfied!

That being said, Dotty Bingo has a lot of improvements to make. We’d like to see them start up a Facebook and Twitter account for starters—a social media platform is very important for a bingo site. We’d also like them to make the site fully-compatible for all devices, or create a mobile app. We know that a lot of bingo players out there love to play bingo on their mobile, so it can be a huge inconvenience if you can’t play on certain games, or if your device in particular isn’t compatible.
 

In Depth

Banking

Dotty Bingo offers members a good variety of payment methods to choose from, ranging from your typical credit and debit cards through to the more niche Skrill and Neteller! This certainly makes depositing that much easier!

Placing Deposits
 

• Debit cards: Visa or Maestro
• Credit cards: Visa or MasterCard
• Paysafecard
• Neteller
• Skrill

Please note: the minimum deposit amount is £10.

Making Withdrawals

Your withdrawal method will be the same as your depositing method. So, for example, if you made a deposit with your Maestro debit card, then your winnings will be transferred to that card. Dotty Bingo doesn’t allow for withdrawals via Paysafecard or a MasterCard credit card. If you deposited via one of these methods, then you’ll have to provide your banking details so that the funds can be sent to your bank account, or wait to receive your winnings via cheque. The minimum withdrawal amount is £20, and it takes on average 3-7 working days for the withdrawal to be processed.
 

Games

Dotty Bingo has a relatively wide range of bingo varieties, with 50, 75, 80 and 90-ball games on offer. The site’s promotions give you an even better chance of winning the top prizes—jackpots can reach as much as £13,000! If your sights are set beyond the bingo battlefields, then why not try your hand at the site’s range of slot games? With a plethora of slots on offer, plus some huge cash prizes, there’s plenty to tempt even the most hardened bingo-lover! Still not ready to abandon bingo? Don’t worry: you can even play slots and bingo at the same time!

Immortal Romance

This slot game is one of intrigue and romance. With 5 reels, 3 rows and 243 ways to win, what’s not to like? If you’re a fan of vampire-themed games, and like your slots packed with drama, then you should check out this exciting slot!

Hot as Hades

Love Greek mythology? Want to head off on a quest? This is the slot for you! With 5 reels and 20 paylines, this slot will take you through the fiery pits of Hades! Brave this damned underworld, however, and you could win a jackpot of up to £8,000! So, is it worth it? Hell yes!

Avalon Ⅱ

We all know the tales of King Arthur and his quest for the Holy Grail. Now, this slot gives you the chance to live it. This sequel to the ever-popular Avalon is even sleeker than the original—this is a real blockbuster of a game. With 243 ways to win, you have the chance to win treasures beyond your wildest dreams!
 

Promotions

This site might be small, but its promotions certainly aren’t! Dotty Bingo offers daily, weekly and monthly promotions, along with a helpful calendar to keep you updated! Daily jackpots on offer range from £50 to £1,000.

• Bingo Blitz: £13,000 in jackpots can be won every Saturday and Sunday evening from 9pm.
   
• TGIF: this game comes around from 19:30 onwards on the last Friday of every month, and comes with four £100 guaranteed pots to win!
   
• Monthly £1,000: on Sunday night from 8pm in the Broadway Room, there’s a chance to bag a huge jackpot of £1,000!
   

Performance

While the site is easy to use and access on PC, it should be noted that it isn’t compatible with all devices. As long as you’re playing on desktop, then the site should work like a dream, but these issues should be noted by anyone hoping to play on the go at Dotty Bingo.

Mobile

You won’t need to download any apps to play Dotty Bingo on your mobile—simply log in on your device’s browser. However, whilst Dotty Bingo does offer mobile gaming on a range of devices, not all mobile devices are currently supported. If you’re unsure as to whether your device is compatible or not, then email the support team before you make a deposit. Another issue is that not all casino games are available on the site’s mobile platform. This means that you may need to use a different device if you want to claim promotions for certain games.

Support

If you have any queries or concerns, you can contact the Dotty Bingo support team via email or live chat, or simply check out their FAQs. One feature we’d like to see the site add, however, is a support phone line.

• Email: support@dottybingo.com
• Queries: FAQs
• Live Chat: is available on the site 24/7
   

Extra Features

VIP Scheme

Dotty Bingo has an exclusive VIP scheme, with 5 levels of VIP status. Dotty Bingo decides when you’re qualified to move up to the next level, and also offers members the chance to have any queries answered by a VIPs-only email address: vip@dottybingo.com.

If you’re accepted onto the scheme, you could benefit from free spins, 50% bingo and slot bonuses, free slot spins, and the chance to increase the loyalty points you earn in a game from 2x all the way up to 10x!

Loyalty Points

Dotty Bingo offers loyalty points for wagering on casino and bingo games with cash and bonus money. Once you reach 500 Dotty Bingo loyalty points, you can redeem them for a £5 Casino Bonus!

Community and Social Media

Unfortunately, Dotty Bingo doesn’t currently have any social media platforms. This is rather disappointing, as social media is usually the best place to stay in the loop with your favourite bingo sites. It does help that Dotty Bingo keeps a promotions calendar to keep members informed, but it could certainly do with creating accounts on Facebook and Twitter soon.
 

Final Comments

There are definitely a number of promising aspects to Dotty Bingo. Their promotions calendar is an innovative feature that we wish we saw more often on bingo sites, and it’s a great way to stay informed and make the most of the bingo experience. We also love the site’s range of bingo and slot games, plus the chance to play both at once!

However, the site is still far from perfect. One key issue we’d like to see them address is the lack of a social media platform. The site’s size also keeps it from offering the sort of big jackpots that attract many new players to bingo in the first place. We’d also love to see wider support for mobile devices, and the ability to play all the site’s games on-the-go.

All in all, though, this is a little site that packs a punch. It’s certainly worth checking out if you want to look beyond the big names—so why not give it a go?
