Steamy Bingo Review

You’ve got to admire the sheer bottle of Steamy Bingo. There’s no beating about the bush here and there’s certainly no shyness on display whatsoever. Steamy Bingo is for the sort of women who are comfortable with grabbing life by the balls and making a real go of it. It’s for the sort of players who have few inhibitions and just want to have a laugh. “For girls who don’t blush” runs the slogan of Steamy Bingo, accompanied by a cartoon graphic of a muscled hunk looking seductive in just a bath towel.

It’s all very silly but also very amusing. In some respects, sites like this go some ways towards atoning for the glut of online casinos festooned in images of women in bikinis and other figure-revealing attire. Anything that can be served up for male players, the female-oriented bingo sites can do just as well, and Steamy Bingo is a chance for British bingo playing girls to gang up and have some fun while ogling the male form – or its cartoon equivalent at least.

About Steamy Bingo

Steamy Bingo is a Cassava Enterprises site. They’re the Gibraltar-based company who are responsible for hundreds of similar bingo sites saturating the British market in recent years. The company are licensed and regulated by the Gibraltar Gambling Commissioner, while 888 UK Ltd who are their parent company are licensed by the Great Britain Gambling Commission. Then there’s Virtual Digital Services Limited who are licensed to offer the site’s services to players within the European Union.

All of the games at Steamy Bingo have been independently audited to ensure fair play and honest payouts. The site also stresses its commitment to maintaining customer security and privacy at all times. The brand behind Steamy Bingo – in other words the company responsible for dreaming up its name and theme – are 8Ball Games Ltd, a company who are based in Manchester, England. They’ve helped Cassava Enterprises develop loads of sites in this fashion. It’s an odd arrangement, but it’s one that appears to work for the two companies involved.

Steamy’s Banking

There isn’t any information about deposits available on the site because Steamy Bingo is run by Cassava Enterprises and for reasons that have never been fathomed, Cassava Enterprises don’t supply this information. What they do supply is withdrawal information. Why the one and not the other? Who knows, but since that’s all we have to go on, let’s start with the latter and take it from there. Funds can be withdrawn from your Steamy Bingo account using credit or debit card including MasterCard. You can also use cheque, Neteller, wire transfer and PayPal.

Withdrawal requests take 48 hours to be processed followed by an additional wait of 2-3 working days minimum before funds will appear in your account. MasterCard, Neteller and PayPal are the quickest withdrawal methods and cheque predictably is the slowest. For deposits, it’s safe to assume that you can use credit or debit card, PayPal and Neteller. There are probably some other options available too. There’s an Entropay logo in the site’s footer for instance. The minimum withdrawal and deposit amounts isn’t supplied.

£100 is Available

There’s a 150% bonus worth up to £100 available when you join Steamy Bingo. This information is displayed prominently on the homepage, but it’s easy to overlook it on account of the hunk positioned alongside it looking at you seductively. Deposit a minimum of £10 to be eligible for the site’s casino bonus. This cash is subject to a 6x wagering requirement before it can be withdrawn and the most that can be cashed out from winning bonus cash is £400.

There’s a promotions page at Steamy Bingo but, like all promotions pages at sites operated by this company, it’s mostly filled with useless information. There are a few offers outlined here, but they’re never satisfactorily explained, often leaving you with more questions than answers. There is Lazy Sunday, which dispenses free bingo and cheap tickets on Sunday mornings. There’s also Saucy Sundays which operates from 9pm, but again it’s not entirely clear what this involves. There’s free bingo, spins and vouchers to be claimed in Saturday Night Fever from 8pm and there’s Late Night Show, a game that operates at 1am dispensing up to £100 in cash prizes.

The Bingo on Site

There isn’t actually a bingo page on the site where you can access details about the games themselves, or not without being logged in anyway. Thankfully this is a Cassava Enterprises site, which means it’s easy to deduce what’s in store. In an ideal world, there’d be a page akin to that you’d find at a site by Cozygames Management, say, where you can see the names of the bingo games, their frequency and the cost of tickets. However since Cassava Enterprises have their own way of doing things, you’re often left to deduce what’s available using the scant clues scattered around the site.

There are almost certainly three types of bingo to be played here: 90-ball, 75-ball and High Five bingo. Of these, the 90-ball game is by far the most popular, as it is at all British bingo sites. There are three ways to win playing 90-ball bingo – by scoring 1 line, 2 lines or 3 lines aka full house – whereas 75-ball bingo only gives you one way to win. In the High Five game there are 5 opportunities to win and lines can be completed vertically, horizontally and diagonally. Tickets for these games start at 1p, but you might pay as much as £1 if entering one of the higher value coverall jackpot games or one of the progressive jackpot games. Three of these are available, one for each type of bingo the site offers.

A Selection of Steamy Slots

There’s also a fair selection of slots and mini games that can be played at Steamy Bingo. The identities of these can be gleaned from the handful of thumbnail images to be found on the homepage coupled with the knowledge that these will be the same games as you’ll find at all Cassava Enterprises sites. Titles include Cool Jewels, Sugar Train, Fluffy Favourites, Blankety Blank, Wheel of Fortune and the X-Factor slot. Some of these games have progressive jackpots in which it’s possible to win prizes worth £10,000 or more.

Steamy Conclusion

Depending on the type of gal you are, you might find Steamy Bingo’s cheeky theme to your tastes. If so, by all means sign up and make this site your bingo playing home. Other players may be less enamoured with the theme, deeming it to be cheap and tacky.

That’s cool; it’s impossible for any singular site to cater for all tastes and there are certainly plenty of other sites out there, even ones produced by the same operator, that offer alternative moods and themes. The welcome bonus here is okay, the games are okay and most other elements of the site are also okay. In other words, Steamy Bingo is nothing special but it’ll do.
