Jackpotjoy Bingo is one of the longest running and most popular British Bingo sites, and it is easy to see why. Signing up to the Jackpotjoy bingo site is simple, and it accepts most major credit and debit cards. Once you are a member, there are a variety of games you can play, but we will only be looking at the games available on this site.

The software at Jackpotjoy Bingo is very different to that found at gala or bingos - the jackpotjoy bingo games are the American 75 number bingo card, and although there is the option of turning off automatic bingo ticket marking and card sorting, the manual daub is not as satisfying as the newer online bingo websites with their Parlay software. The American style Jackpotjoy bingo games make a refreshing change to the UK 90 number bingo cards, especially when you play for a special pattern of numbers.

Prize money on these games can be impressive too, although do remember that these aren't treble-chance 90 number bingo games, where the prize is divided three ways. You can play more cards at once on this site than on the others - buy up to 100 cards at a time, and with the free bingo cards that are sometimes offered you could play up to 200 bingo tickets in a game! And remember, the more bingo cards you play, the better chance of winning you have. But if you are unsure if you will enjoy this type of online bingo game, you can always opt to play free bingo games, to win prize points.

The prize money at Jackpotjoy Bingo is very good indeed, going well into the hundreds of pounds, and the caller is rather more entertaining than on the Parlay bingo sites. The bingo numbers are called (by an English caller) using the traditional bingo calls for each number - so 59 becomes 'The Brighton Line' and 22 becomes 'Two Little Ducks'. Even better, when someone wins, an extremely camp theme tune is played!

The chatroom is located in the same window as the bingo game itself, is very friendly, and is easy to read as it uses the full height of the window. They also offers worthwhile bingo bonuses, such as free bingo tickets depending on the amount that you buy, and special points that you gain each time that you deposit money. these can be used to enter raffles for a variety of quality prizes, such as iPods and digital cameras.

For: Worthwhile prize money, enjoyable site ambience, lots of fun!

Against: No 90 ball games.
