Huge selection of games, secure and smooth experience, responsive chat hosts – what more is there to want? Read on to find out how we spent our time at Sun and what there is to know about the brand.
Enough Choice to Suit Everyone
Even the fussiest of visitors will struggle to pick on the variety of games here. As part of the Gamesys Group, the site is a host to the latest titles among both bingo games and classic and themed slots. Read on for some more information about the overall performance of the platform and a sneak peek at the features they offer.
You Love Bingo? This Is the Place
The first thing to notice – this is one of the few places out there to offer the 80-ball variety of bingo – you won’t find it easily. So that alone is a huge plus in favour of Sun. Then they also have the usual 75- and 90-ball game varieties. Make yourself at home in the lobby, pick a variant and then head to one of the fancy rooms – from Candy Club, Breakfast, Fashion to the very tabloid-like Headline Clubs – the chat rooms are lively and on topic, the hosts – useful and friendly. Trust me on this, your fun is 100% guaranteed.

The all-time favourite Mystic Meg pays out up to 10,000 x your coin size. You can unlock two exciting bonus rounds and get yourself some gold coins. Double Bubble is also quite popular here – a bubblelicious slot where you can win up to 22 times your stake. You can spin the five reels for winning combinations or hit the Wild, Bonus or Special Bubble symbols. Whatever your choice – we wish you good luck!
Cross-Device Compatibility of the Site
That’s a letdown I have to say. Even though the site has finally released a version compatible with tablets (iPad and Samsung Galaxy) and some mobiles since the last time I visited it, it only features two 90-ball bingo rooms at present. They have promised that new versions are coming for other devices, so let’s wait and see, they were true to their promise the last time so there is hope, Sun fans, the pressure is on!
| Desktop vs Mobile Versions of the Site | |

You still get the sign-up bonus and can play a selection of slots, casino and pick some scratch cards, though. Let’s hope they do indeed improve on their mobile features ASAP as fact is, the future is in our hands (literally).
Awards for New & Old Players
Regardless of your budget or level of expertise, everyone is welcome here. There are free rooms for newbies (or just curious players) to have a look around before committing to the brand, the chat hosts are friendly, efficient and helpful, quick to cover any queries and the team has put some effort into crafting a good welcome pack and steady ongoing incentives for regular players. See the details below.
Newbies Welcome Gift
To get the 300% bonus for new players, you will first need to deposit a minimum of £10. You can only use it once per account and the maximum you can put in is £66.67. The wagering requirement is 4 times the initial bonus. I advise you to keep track of what games contribute how much to the wager as that will vary across the board. It is all simply explained on the site or/and you can ask the friendly staff members to talk you through it if needed.
| Welcome Bonus: | Deposit £10, Play with £40 |
| Valid for: | All Games Available |
| Wagering Requirements: | 4x Welcome Bonus |
| Other Extras: | Invite a Friend, Free Bingo Room, VIP club |
The bonus will expire in 30 days (the clock starts ticking upon your registration), so whilst you can take your time and look around for free and even give a go to some of the free rooms (open daily between 7 a.m. and 10 p.m.), don’t let it slip and if you’re happy with what you see – put that tenner in and try your luck for real!
A Commitment to Existing Members
Sun makes a point of looking after existing customers too. On top of the secure and quality service, they make sure to keep the ongoing promos and giveaways coming. You have the free rooms and daily no deposit games and you can also refer a friend and grab £20 if they were to join you on the site.
There is also a premium service for VIP players, including faster withdrawals, preferential treatment, invitations to VIP events and exclusive prize draws, first look at the latest games and a front seat to the hottest offers and promos. You can email vip@sunbingo.co.uk for details on how to get a VIP status and feel that extra special.
Deposits, Withdrawals and Other Financial Info
You can pick from the following payment providers available on the site: Visa Debit, Visa, Visa Electron, Mastercard and Maestro, also the quick and easy option without getting your cards out – Laser, Paysafecard and Paypal. There is an easy-to-use “Getting started” guide if you ever get stuck.
- Minimum Deposit: £10 (may vary across payment providers)
- Fees: All deposits and withdrawals are free of charge but third parties’ charges may apply
- Currencies: Available in all currencies
No need to remind you that you can only use payment methods registered in your own name to make deposits and request withdrawals. There are minimum and maximum limits per transaction, but they are imposed by the third-party payment providers, so may vary depending on the payment method you have chosen to use. Again, you can refer to the pretty extensive FAQ section or get hold of one of the jolly operators on the live chat.

Overall Author Experience on the Platform
I did enjoy my stay. The site is relatively easy to navigate through, they have been improving by adding the iPad/tablet version, which is a good sign. The bingo rooms are very lively, there is always something going on in the lobby so you’ll never feel bored. There is plenty of slot games to choose from, the support is quick and reliable, the welcome offer is good – overall I am left with a good impression.
