National Bingo Game
The National Bingo Game Association runs the National Bingo Game which is played in bingo clubs throughout the UK. Bingo halls first became established in Britain during the 1960’s, but it was not until the revolution of the National Bingo game in the 1980’s did bingo players get the chance to win truly life changing amounts of money.
Many different bingo companies now link up twice daily every single day of the week to bring their players the National Bingo Game to participate in. These bingo clubs currently include Mecca Bingo, Top Ten Bingo, Apollo Bingo, Beacon Bingo, Brechland Bingo, Buckingham Bingo, Capitol Bingo, Carlton Bingo, Castle Bingo, Club 3000 Bingo, Fruit Bingo, Flutters Bingo, Leo Leisure Bingo, Opera Bingo and Palace Bingo.
All of these land based bingo clubs also now run online bingo sites on the net, so bingo players are able to play bingo with their favourite bingo provider without even leaving the comfort of their own home. Having said that however, whist online bingo sites run their own offers and bingo promotions, the National Bingo Game itself can only be found and played at land based bingo clubs.
It was with thanks to the gaming act change back in 1968 that allowed betting and gaming to be played in member only establishments, that see bingo populated in the UK. This is also why you do need to become a member of a land based bingo club before being allowed to enter their premises and play bingo with them.
Bingo members are also allowed to sign in their friends now, which gives them a temporary membership for the afternoon or night, depending on what bingo session they are participating in. The National Bingo game is a completely separate game to all other bingo games played within bingo clubs. Bingo players can choose to opt into or out of this game when purchasing their books.
The National Bingo game is a set jackpot prize and it is won or shared by the player or players who call house on this game in the least amount of bingo calls. This means that the National Bingo game jackpot is guaranteed to be won on every single game that is played, unlike the high five jackpot now provided by Gala Bingo, which is now set at £250,000, where players need to win bingo on the number (5) to win the full jackpot or a number ending in a five to win a percentage of the jackpot prize.
