BOGOF Bingo Review
BOGOF Bingo first arrived in 2009, and was one of the earlier sites opened on the Virtue Fusion network. Although it was always popular, 2014 saw some major changes.
The brand came under new management and the site got a brilliant refresh. Sadly, things didn’t go so well for the operating company, Nektan, and they closed down in 2019.
That could have been the end of BOGOF bingo, in fact most of us thought it was. But then in swept Grace Media. They bought the brand along with a bunch of others and brought it back to life. The site is back and looks better than ever before. While they haven’t made anything of the brand name (there is no BOGOF offer on the site which is a big fail) there is plenty to enjoy here.
For a start, the site now runs on the Dragonfish network so the bingo games are brilliant. There are unique promotions and lots of great side games available too. Not to mention a great selection of payment methods and contact options.
I will explain more on all of these areas below.
Bonuses & Promotions
With a name like BOGOF bingo, you might expect to see some Buy One Get One Free deals available. Nope. Afraid not.
Grace Media clearly bought the brand for its popularity, but have not reinstated one of its most popular promotions. This was something the last incarnation of the site offered, and while the name has stuck, the BOGOFs haven’t. A missed opportunity if you ask me, but not the end of the world.
Nevertheless, there are plenty of other great promotions available.
There are so many bonuses available at BOGOF Bingo they have their own Bonus Calendar. There is something available every day of the month, so it’s a good place to start when you first log in.
Alongside all the regular things you would expect to see such as cash back deals, free tickets or free spins etc., they have also thought outside the box. For example, they have run a promotion where you can get flowers on your birthday in the past. Real flowers! Naawwwww.
Then of course there are the welcome offers for new customers, which you can learn more about by following the link.
See. Loads of good stuff.
Bingo Games & Software
BOGOF Bingo runs on the Dragonfish network, and the brand owner, Grace Media, is based in Gibraltar.
The bingo on offer seems relatively simple and comes in either 75, 80 or 90-ball format. However, look a little deeper and you will find much more than first meets the eye.
The games might be based on a small number of bingo variations, but each rooms has its own unique features such as jackpots, ticket prices, game design (Animingo is a prime example) and in game features.
There are 12 different rooms on the site so that is a lot of variety. You are bound to find a few favourites among them.
The rooms are generally well populated since Dragonfish is such a large network, so prizes tend to be good but competition is fierce. No chat rooms in the games though, you’ll have to find another network if you want a side of sparkling conversation with your course of online bingo.
Other Games
Alongside their bingo games, BOGOF also hold a very nice selection of slots. These include popular titles that have been around forever as well as brand new ones making headlines.
One of their bingo games is even based on a slot – Big Bass Bonanza – so they know a thing or two about online gaming as well as bingo.
With Dragonfish being such a long established network, they have links with all the best software companies and first pick of the newest and brightest. This means you get an expertly created game library of smash hits.
Every genre you can imagine is here, with jackpots, Megaways games, branded titles and more. You can even be play many of them as side games in between rounds of bingo.
Payment Options
There’s a great selection of payment methods available at BOGOF Bingo:
| Banking Method | Max/Min Deposit | Max/Min Withdrawal | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Debit Card | £5 | £10 | £1.50 fee withdrawals under £30 |
| PayPal | £5 | £10 | £1.50 fee withdrawals under £30 |
| Pay By Phone | £10 | n/a | Use debit card |
| Bank Transfer | £5 | £10 | £1.50 fee withdrawals under £30 |
As well as the £1.50 withdrawal fee, anyone depositing by phone will be charged a 15% processing fee. So a £10 deposit would only see £8.50 land in your account. This lesser spotted deposit method is a luxury you have to pay for!
It’s a great range of options though, and the processing times are nice and fast. This is all great, but they only have the most basic level of deposit protection, which is something to be aware of.
Don’t worry, they are meeting their license agreements and hundreds of other bingo sites have the same terms. It just means that leaving large sums of money in your account for a long time is not a good idea. If anything happened and the company went under, your funds could be lost.
Just don’t let funds build up in there for months on end. Deposit, play, and withdraw if you win. Simple!

Conclusion
For bingo players who love racking up the offers, BOGOF Bingo is a superb choice.
It has to be one of the best looking bingo sites in the industry. This is backed up by quality games and content that will not disappoint, decent payment options and terms, plus a hard working effective customer service team.
The bingo itself is always the main attraction though, and courtesy of Dragonfish, the rooms here are industry leading. They’re busy, they’re stylish, they run very frequently, and they come with some awesome jackpots too.
BOGOF is the perfect choice for bingo fans who don’t want much else. The slots are great here, but they don’t get in the way, and there is nothing else to clog up the site. It’s bingo focused and bingo fantastic.
