One of the great features of Virgin Bingo are their exclusive V Points, which are clocked up as you play on any of their games. V Points can be exchanged for all sorts of things including bonus cash, charity donations and day out packages to name just a few.

Virgin are a bit of a mixed bag bingo site as not only do they provide their own standalone bingo rooms to play in, but they have networked rooms as well – So you could say you get the best of two bingoing worlds.

They are also a name you can trust, which goes a long way in this digital age.

Virgin Bingo V points can be traded for cash or a range of products and they are collected as you simply play bingo or any other games.

If you would like to convert your v points for cash these can be exchanged at a rate of (1 v point for 1P) in money.

Alternatively you can save up your v points and when you have enough of them you can redeem them for Virgin air club miles, vouchers (which can be used to purchase a number of virgin goodies), virgin day out experiences and if you are feeling generous you could also donate to Virgin Unite (which is the independent charitable arm of the virgin group). The choice as they say is yours to make.

Redeeming your points is very simple – Just go to the (v point) drop down section when logged into your account. You will see a number of options as to what you can do with your points, then pick the one that suits you.

V Points will be earned when you play for real cash on any of the following games

Every £100 wagered on bingo gives you – 60 V Points
Every £100 wagered on instant win, slots or scratch cards gives you – 10 V points
Every £100 wagered on blackjack gets you – 5 V Points
Every £100 wagered on table games like (roulette and baccarat) gives you – 7.5 V Points
Every £1 poker rake that you generate will give you – 4 V Points

So as you can see it is possible to clock up those V Points in no time at all on Virgin and they are a real added benefit to playing at their site.

Virgin does have very good reward systems in place; the same cannot be said for all others however.

The Virgin Games, Virgin Casino, Virgin Bingo, Virgin Poker websites have been fully re-structured, re-designed, re-painted, re-optimized, re-you name it… and are now on a beta release version.

There are (new site) banners listed on the old Virgin Bingo site, so if you would like to see their beta release update or give Virgin your feedback – simply click this banner from their homepage.

For a limited time only you will be able to switch between the old and new Virgin games sites. However in just a few weeks time Virgin will do away with their old site, when this happens you will only be able to log onto their new look site.

Gaming operators do face some immense challenges when they are on a website redesign project, as their aim is to make the site better than it was before and not worse. Navigation, style, ascetics and functionality are all key factors.

The old Virgin website was very much dominated by the colour red, after all that is the Virgin colour trademark – on their new site though red does not dominate, which gives the site a much fresher feel.

We found the new Virgin website to give us an enhanced playing experience. It was much easier to navigate around and preview all their games. There were promotions, jackpots, bingo, slots, instants and poker a plenty and everything was in full view to see.

If you are new to Virgin Bingo you can claim a £20 cash match welcome bonus and as always you will start collecting those exclusive V Points when you begin play.

V points can be converted into cash or exchanged for a number of great Virgin extras – as they say, the choice would be yours to make.

Virgin are still a casino, poker and bingo site all rolled into the same website and just the one account will give you access to all areas. So no matter what your preference of play is, they should have something to suit you.

Check out the new Virgin site for yourself, let us know what you think of it?

Here is a bit more details about the new bingo games launched at Virgin Bingo.

Virgin Bingo already had deal or no deal bingo available to play in the traditional 90 ball format of the game, but you can now play it on 75 ball bingo thanks to this new game release.

Deal or no deal bingo is based around the very popular channel 4 TV game show which has become a hit worldwide. It is great to be able to play this dond in the form of a bingo game – will you beat that naughty banker? Well you will just have to play it to find out.

Mini cash bingo is played on the 80 ball version of the bingo game and as this is a mini style game it can be played at the exact same time you are playing in any of the bingo rooms listed a Virgin. So you can now play two bingo games at once, without switching between screens.

The only downfall to mini cash bingo is that it can eat into your money pretty fast (as it is a side game) and unlike a normal bingo game it does not last very long.

For you information, Virgin Bingo are running a promotion in conjunction with their deal or no deal bingo rooms this week. If you spend £5 playing dond bingo in either their 90 ball bingo room or the all new 75 ball bingo room, you will be entered into a prize draw to win one of 4 x £500 cash prizes that they have got up for grabs.

This dond bingo offer is going to turn out to be a very nice surprise for some.

Notice: Virgin Games are no longer accepting Polish players. This is due to the recent change in Polish regulations regarding online gaming. All polish accounts already held at Virgin will be closed on 5th August, 2011. If you have any funds in your accounts please ensure that you log in and withdraw them now, because you will be unable to access your accounts after this date.
