Over the next few months, there are likely to be some heavy changes to the way online bingo and casino bonuses work. Even though new laws being ratified by the UK Parliament being somewhat thrown into disarray by the recent General Election, operators have been informed that as of August 1st, free bets and bonuses will receive the same level of point of consumption duty. This means that most no deposit bonuses offered by online bingo sites will be coming to an end by the end of the month, or early August at the latest, which is a real shame for online bingo lovers. 
Welcome bonuses
It is possible that, as a result of these changes, the habit of offering a no deposit bonus to allow new players to experience a bingo site before making their first deposit may swiftly become a thing of the past. Many sites, including Dragonfish brands such as Welcome, Peeps, and Lucy have already stopped offering no deposit bonuses to new players. It can be assumed that the other sites on the extensive Dragonfish Network will soon be doing the same. 
Free Bingo at Cozy
Another giant of the online bingo world, Cozy Games, are expected to end their no deposit bonuses sooner rather than later. However, it isn’t all bad, because these are rumoured to be being replaced by free bingo games for newbies, so you’ll still get a chance to feel out a site before depositing, or at least before betting any money. Not all sites and networks look set to end no deposit bonuses yet, with Ignite still launching new bingo sites with no deposit offers, so these bonuses may not be confined to the history books just yet, we’ll have to wait and see.
