Author: Bingo FanHello. This article is about a brilliant free bingo website that I’ve recently signed up to. It’s called WooHoo Bingo (http://www.woohoobingo.com) and I think it is quite simply the best free bingo site on the web. For starters, you do not have to provide any debit or credit card details whatsoever. No money is ever taken from you. The website works on a points and stars system, let me explain. Once you have provided WooHoo with a valid email address and set up your account, you will be credited with a number of points. Each game of bingo costs an amount of points depending on the number of cards that you buy. Your account will be recharged with a set number of points every 24 hours so you never run out of credit for long. You can earn additional points and/or increase the amount of points for your recharge by completing challenges such as adding an image to your profile. Most of the challenges are really straightforward and well worthwhile for the extra points but they are purely optional. If you have a win on a bingo game then you will be awarded a number of stars and/or additional points. WooHoo operate a shop within the website which...more
