BINGO REVIEW - STARLIGHT BINGO

Starlight Bingo does not give us any confidence whatsoever. Starlight Bingo has a loyal customer base but oh boy does their website suck and so does the downloading which is done via the FTP client which does not give you control of where they download the files unless you are very familiar with the process. The website does not provide any information whatsoever such as the sign up bonus, what are the terms and conditions and so on. When requesting information from the Bingo Managers in the chat room, all we got was "HUN", "GOGOGOGOOOOOO" and so on. Although we test all sites reviewed, the entire process of accessing information which cannot be done via the Bingo Interface but you are redirected to another web page and you have to login yet again to access your account. Without proper information prior to depositing any money is just foolhardy in our view so we have not tested the site more than downloading the software and installing it.

The website says a 100% sign up bonus but we could never get a straight answer about the terms and conditions when asking one of the Bingo Managers in the chat function inside the Bingo Hall.

As there are so many other Bingo Sites, we would recommend that you try some other Bingo Site as the lack of information and transparency does not give us a lot of confidence. Having said that, Starlight Bingo is quite a popular Bingo Site with a very loyal fan base, and all vouch for the quick payouts (less than one day in most cases).

STARLIGHT BINGO - GAMES

Still trying to figure it out - no clue as we couldn't find the information on the website, nor on the Bingo interface, and last but not least, we tried to ask some questions to the Bingo Managers in the chat facility and still did not manage to get any information.

STARLIGHT BINGO - FEATURES

Starlight Bingo sponsors the World Bingo Championships with a top prize of $10,000. Qualifying events held at Starlight Bingo.

Chat room works well and scalable to fit your screen size of your choice. Apart from that, we didn't bother to find out anymore as we were told to stop asking questions and leave the others alone.

STARLIGHT BINGO - INTERFACE AND SOFTWARE

5 Mb to download. With cable/broadband it only takes a few seconds but with dial-up, it could be quite a long time to download. What we didn't like is that the download was via our FTP-client which meant that we had no control where the files were being downloaded. To register, you have to go to their website rather than from the bingo lobby and then you have to activate your account with the activation code sent to your e-mail. To navigate through each part of the Account information on their website, you have to keep re-enter your login details - very annoying that it is not possible to access it from the Bingo Lobby. And our view is that their Website must be one of the most poorly thought out commercial websites that we have come across. Difficult to navigate, poor information provided and new windows opening up all the time when trying to navigate through the site.

Very messy interface and definitely not one that we like. In our view, if a player is on a bingo site, slots should not be a major feature on the actual bingo interface.
