My recommendation is unless you just want to pretend play get hooked and possibly really lose your cash - go for playing the initial deposit only no freebies!! These freebies should be made illegal as you are unable to withdraw unless you have spent your freebie and are using your actual deposit!!

    Says deposit is £5? You mentioned £10?


    You must open your account, deposit and wager £5 within 30 days from registration.

    These may initially track at zero to signify individual wagers, but should be updated to reflect the cashback once the wagering requirement is met.
    For more information on responsible gambling or to get advice, visit Gamble Aware
    Cashback applies to new players to Gala Bingo only. If you have previously opened a Gala Bingo account you will not be eligible for cashback.
    One account per TopCashback member only. Cashback is not payable multiple times.
    The wagering requirements must be met with deposited funds and not with bonus money or free bets.
    When going through Gala Bingo ensure you only play through the Bingo rooms under the Bingo tab as cashback will not be eligible if you play one of the Games or Slots from the Games or Slots tabs
    Any fraudulent activity will result in your account being suspended and cashback being rejected.
    All cashback claims must be raised within 30 days.
    Please note that the use of a Gala Bingo promotional/voucher code not posted and approved by TopCashback, may affect your eligibility for cashback.
    Gala Bingo cashback is available through TopCashback on genuine, tracked transactions completed immediately and wholly online.
    The rates displayed above will include the cashback bonus relevant to what level of membership you are on when you're logged into your account. If you're not logged in to a TopCashback account, the rates shown will include the Plus member cashback bonus.
    GALA BINGO CASHBACK can be earned simply by clicking through to the merchant and shopping online as normal.

    Watch out if doing this, I had the below discussion on their live chat. I have changed their name to a generic title, and changed mine where they used it, :(but otherwise it's unedited and in full:

    A member of our customer service team will be with you very shortly.
    GalaLiveChat: Hi jam, a very warm welcome to Gala Bingo.
    GalaLiveChat: How would you like a fabulous Welcome Bonus on your first deposit?

    Me: yup, as long as it doesn't compromise my cashback from topcashback.co.uk

    GalaLiveChat: jam, that cashback offer is no longer valid I'm afraid - but if you deposit £10 while we're on Live Chat together, you'll get a Welcome Bonus of £30 and I can add an extra £5 Games or Bingo bonus for you. How does that sound?

    Me: sounds like a bait and switch to me

    GalaLiveChat: I do apologise about the cashback no longer being valid, unfortunately the affiliate site that's advertising this offer hasn't removed the details despite being asked numerous times.
    GalaLiveChat: You can also claim 2 free scratchcards, Roy's Rolls and Buzzby's Scratch-me-if-you-Can, where you can win up to £500 Bingo Bonus.

    Me: no thanks, but perhaps you can advise me on how to close my account

    GalaLiveChat: I can close the account straight away on your request if that's what you wish.

    Me: yes please, so it's like i never existed

    GalaLiveChat: By law we have to keep your records on file, but as soon as we've finished this chat I will close the account.

    Me: hmm, given i've neither deposited nor wagered with you that is debatable, but i'll let it slide. Thanks for agreeing to close the account.

    GalaLiveChat: You're most welcome jam, apologies for any disappointment.
    GalaLiveChat: Have a good day.
  • Thought I'd try this, just won £340 on a bingo game :):):):):)

    It's very much still advertised on Topcashback and has been for months, I've helped people claim it very recently.
    Basically Gala Bingo are giving you lies to try and save money.

    The staff on these things are generally very ignorant anyway.
  • I did this when it was at £32 and it was paid with no problem. I've had about £100 from bingo sites so most of them are ok. Hope that helps!
