Starlight Bingo Official Online Bingo Blog

Wow!  If I didn’t already know it, then you have proved just how much you love online bingo, and the great tournaments, bonuses, and prizes that you get with Starlight Bingo!

We have been so busy that it’s been a little while since I had any time to post here, still I’m not complaining, I love bingo games too, so I do understand why we are drawing in more and more new players each day. It is also great to see so many new male players joining us, just goes to show that bingo online is fashionable amongst both sexes.

The Bingo Cruise Tournament is really hotting up, but at the same time, many players are competing for the Viva Las Vegas competition, where we are giving away a free weekend in Las Vegas!  You can read all about it here if you missed it.  And the Bingo Cruise competition goes on right through to 30^th September, so there is plenty time to start playing for your cruise miles.  You can read all about the Bingo Cruise here.

We have much more than that on offer for you, we never stop trying to bring you the very best in online gaming.  If you haven’t seen our monthly online slots competition, then you can see how it works, and how you can win big bonuses, as well as the chance to win the huge jackpot payouts, click here to learn more, or go here to see the latest winners.

The recent addition of our ‘Toggle Card’ payment option has proved to be a big success, resulting in more players being able to make and receive safe and secure online payments.  We also introduced a new safe and secure credit card payment option for USA players, and all existing players should have received our e-mail advising them that we are running our 100% deposit bonus special again until the end of April.  This means that you get 100% bonus on EVERY deposit you make until midnight EST, on 30^th April; don’t miss this one, its back by popular demand.

It’s also great to see so many signed up to receive notification of new posts to this blog. It seems most of you prefer to be notified by e-mail, but there have also been a steady stream wanting to get RSS alerts.  This is great, it shows that you are ‘with it’ in the world of latest technology, LOL!  Actually it’s not difficult at all to do, just go to this blog’s home page, and you can sign up from the section at the top right where it says ’subscribe’.

We also decided to change our monthly newsletter that goes out to players. As we have so many players from so many different parts of the world, we have now decided to do separate newsletters to players in Australia, Canada, and UK.  If you live in any of those countries, you may have already received the first of the new style newsletter , which will go out around mid month, and will also have some very special offers that are only available to your country. We will offer bingo specials on the special ‘holiday’ dates for your country. The feedback received up to now has been excellent, seems you love this idea.  If you haven’t signed up to receive the monthly newsletter, you should do so now, be the first to know about the specials available to you, you can sign up here, or go to the main website page and select ‘register’, and remember, you can play all the online games in your local currency, just select your chosen currency at sign up.

Currently we offer USD, AUD, CAD, GBP, and EURO. Of course if you do not wish to receive our newsletter each month, you can always go and read the latest online, on our main website news page.

Also, as a result of our new ‘country specific’ newsletters, we had a request from one of our Australian players ‘wuzzy’, who asked if we could do something special in commemoration of Anzac Day. We felt this was a very worthy day to mark as a special day.  For those who are unaware of Anzac Day, the 25^th April each year marks the anniversary of the first major military action fought by Australian and New Zealand forces during the First World War. The acronym ANZAC stands for ‘Australia and New Zealand Army Corps, whose soldiers were known as Anzacs. The pride they took in that name endures to this day, and Anzac Day remains one of the most important national occasions of both Australia and New Zealand. You can read more about Anzac Day here.

To mark this special day, we will be having $50 pots and a $2500 JP on Games played between 4am - 8am EST (6pm - 10pm Australia time).

The Ode

This is the verse of the ode that is said during the minutes of silence on Anzac Day:

They shall grow not old,
As we that are left grow old,
Age shall not weary them,
Nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun,
And in the morning
We will remember them.
