    Play through your money, and if you win STOP PLAYING! If you carry on playing, you will be playing with your winnings, not with your initial free money.....

    It might be that they say you can only withdraw a minimum amount - say you have won £10, but they say minimum withdrawal is £30......don't be tempted to play more to try and get up to £30, as you will probably lose out and end up with nothing - just deposit another £20 of your own, and then withdraw the full £30.

    glglgl :D

    Ah. I see where I've been going wrong. :whistle:

    ty - that had me lost too :o:o I'm just not down with the kids anymore! Lol! But hope to be down with the free bingo kids soon! I am determined to make time for it - I'm storing all the tips! TY! :beer:
    So sorry to hear about your job Hiphouse, keep positive :A

    It really pays to spend some extra time on the groceries. I meticulously plan each week the meals and the shopping list and if i haven't got the [STRIKE]excited puppy[/STRIKE] OH with me it works well :rotfl:

    It's help reduce our average weekly shop and we don't throw anything away so nothing goes to waste :T

    bacon leek and potato bake - it wasn't me but it sounds delish so if someone could post the details I would be grateful!

    pickle - the min amount to deposit is £5 but the minimum to withdraw is £20.

    Hiphouse, I'm glad the £10 a day challenge has made a difference to you. Hope today goes ok.

    milann - DD is home on Thursday evening. It seems like she has been away for ages! I hope she has had a good time.

    Off to bank, scratch and drink coffee....have a good day everyone x

    And I'll eventually be able to withdraw my £5 as part of that?! (Sorry....*scuttles away* :o)

    bingobritain is one of the few that will let you withdraw your "real" balance, but will leave your bonus balance in there still to use :D

    so win, withdraw, then carry on playing - if you win again, you reverse cashin but have to wait 24 hours before withdrawing again. By then another £5 is there in bonus for you to play with, but because you don't forfeit it when you withdraw, it will still be available to you.....

    I'm sure they'll close the loophole at some point so that you forfeit any remaining bonus if you withdraw real money, but for the time being it is working in our favour!

    :confused:But £20 is still the minimum so say I win £3 I would have to deposit £17, take out £20 and the remaining £5 would be my daily bonus? :confused::o

    I only just got up. Brain no work. :(

    Yep Pickle, you've got the hang of it :D I won £2 this morning, deposited £20 and withdrew £22. I know its only a small amount but if I get a few of these over the month then its a bonus. Plus the bingo caller goes really quick on this site so you're not sitting for ages waiting for the numbers ;)

    Blimey - you lot are all winning far more than I am - not fair *stamps feet* :rotfl:

    Seriously, though, I am glad that everyone is getting something out of it :T

    As I sit eating my sandwiches and getting ready to make my cup a soup, I had the realisation that I can't remember the last time I went and bought coffee.......and I rarely buy anything for lunch now because I bring stuff in from home. I even have a loyalty card for the coffee shop that only needs one more stamp before I get a freebie, and I've not even been near to use it up.....although it would now be a BOGOF essentially!

    So, my habits must be changing.......all for the good. My visits to the cash machine are reduced as a result, and that is no bad thing at all is it :D
