Peeps Bingo Review

Promising bingo “for the people” is Peeps Bingo, a newcomer on the scene. If you’re a person who would like to join the people in ticking off cards covered with numbers, all under the guise of entertainment and personal enrichment, come give Peeps Bingo a try.

The homepage features a woman raising her arms heavenward as if seeking divine inspiration (perhaps in completing her first 90-ball bingo line), leaving no doubts as to the site’s target market. If you’re into bingo, there’s a good chance you’re a woman and if that’s the case you’re exactly the kind of person Peeps Bingo is seeking.

Why should you join Peeps Bingo over the glut of competing bingo sites to be found on the web? Well, there are some tempting introductory offers including a no deposit bonus. There’s a good variety of payment options.

And then there’s the virtual safety net that comes from knowing you’re entrusting your deposit money to a reputable gaming operator – Cassava Enterprises Ltd to be precise. With multiple bingo rooms and loads of slots including branded games from NetEnt, there’s a lot of titles to explore at Peeps Bingo and countless ways to win.

About Peeps Bingo

Although part of the sprawling Cassava Enterprises stable of bingo sites – a stable that’s growing increasingly more crowded by the day – Peeps Bingo doesn’t feel like its sister sites. It feels more rough and ready.

Whether this is because the company outsourced the design of Peeps Bingo to a different agency from normal or simply because Cassava Enterprises have stopped trying is hard to say. The language to be found on the site is distinctly different though; if you didn’t know, you’d think the English on the site had been written by an Eastern European gaming developer, not a British-based company.

For the record, the company responsible for Peeps Bingo, stilted English and all, are based in Gibraltar and regulated by the Gibraltar Gambling Commissioner. 888 UK Ltd are responsible for the site’s UK operations while Virtual Digital Services Ltd take care of its European operations. The look and language of Peeps Bingo might not be the most confidence inspiring, but the games themselves can’t be faulted. With 90-ball, 75-ball and jackpot bingo games, there’s more than enough here to keep devoted bingo players happy.

Banking

In terms of banking, Peeps Bingo uses the same methods as all Cassava Enterprises sites. That means prioritising credit and debit card. You can use Visa, MasterCard or Maestro, but there are also some alternative methods available. Choose from PayPal, Paysafecard, Entropay or Neteller. The minimum deposit amount is £10. Withdrawals take 48 hours to be processed.

Mobile Play

The good news is that mobile players are catered for at Peeps Bingo. The bad news is that the mobile page, like every other page on this site, looks and reads atrocious. The English is barely understandable, complete with such phrases as “If you already are a member of Peeps Bingo you can log in to our Mobile platform with same detail”, a sentence deemed so good it’s repeated twice.

There’s definitely something strange going on at Peeps Bingo, one that doesn’t do the reputation of its operator any favours. From what can be deduced, mobile players can access over 100 games on their tablet or smartphone device and signing up takes just two minutes.

Bonuses

There’s a good selection of bonuses for new players at Peeps Bingo, that much can at least be said with confidence. It all starts with a £5 no deposit bonus plus 5 free spins when you sign up. This is followed by a first deposit bonus of 300% or 100% if you put the cash towards casino games plus 25 free spins. Similar offers are in place for your second and third deposits, albeit with reduced bonus levels for the second deposit.

Other ways to claim a little extra bonus cash include liking the site’s Facebook page, which will grant you a £1 bonus. Judging by the 400-odd likes the page has amassed so far, there’s not a huge community of players to be found at Peeps Bingo; presumably they’re all busy playing at Cassava Enterprises’ other sites.

The promotions page on the site is divided into tabs for new player offers, big jackpots, bingo offers and slots offers. There’s all kinds of bonuses and other promotions to take in, most of which conform to the same model as that used on the holding company’s other sites.

Bingo

One of the most disconcerting things about Peeps Bingo is the way in which pages appear to be half-finished, with zero graphics or text above the fold. Take the bingo lobby for example. On desktop, the visible part of the page contains nothing more than some fluffy clouds and the word Bingo displayed in oversized lettering.

It’s only once you start scrolling that the games themselves become apparent. 75 and 90-ball games are available along with chat games which introduce a social aspect to proceedings.

Tickets for bingo games usually cost around 5p save for the jackpot games, when they can be up to £1. A countdown timer accompanies each game along with details on the number of players who’ve bought tickets. Due to a design error on Peeps Bingo’s website – spot the recurring theme here – it’s not possible to scroll down and view the full list of bingo games that are available.

Slots

The slots and other games are perhaps the only area where Peeps Bingo earns pass marks. There are some great games to be found here – plus a few not so great ones – with the branded slots like Guns N Roses and Superman Last Son of Krypton impressing.

It turns out that there’s a veritable casino tucked away inside the slots section of Peeps Bingo including jackpot games like The Big Lebowski and Shaman’s Dream, with prizes running into the tens of thousands.

While you’re on the slots page, click on the table games tab and you’ll find a whole lot more to entice you including live casino games such as blackjack and roulette. There’s a whole lotta video poker, multihand blackjack and keno too. In fact, looking through the list it would be fair to say that Peeps Bingo makes a better casino than it does a bingo site.

Rating

Peeps Bingo is a pretty dismal site it must be said. UK bingo sites are generally written and designed coherently, especially when the company operating them has a string of other successful bingo sites to its name.

Quite why Peeps Bingo is so shoddy is anyone’s guess. Sure, you can play bingo here, and yes the promotions are pretty good. It’s true that the slots are excellent and there’s a good selection of table games too.

Despite all of these things, Peeps Bingo feels like a half-baked and lazily slung together site, one whose operators aren’t interested in creating a vibrant bingo community where players can share in the fun and rewards together. There are way better sites than this to play at. Choose one of them.
