If you had to name a bingo brand that everyone has heard of, chances are you’d choose Mecca Bingo. Both their online and land based establishments are incredibly popular, so their new modifications are bound to have an impact on thousands of players.
New Wagering Requirements
The wagering requirements have recently increased from 1x to 2x, and whilst the wager used to be met when the deposit was played through. However, from May 3rd 2016 onwards players must meet 2x the bonus before they can withdraw their winnings.
Bonus Changes
Speaking of bonuses, there have been some changes made to the welcome bonus. Although the amount new players will receive remains at £40 and a £10 Mecca Bingo voucher when they deposit £10, the bonus will now only be available for seven days. Any amount remaining in your account after those seven days are up will be removed. According to an email sent out by Mecca Bingo on May 3rd 2016, these changes are an added layer of protection. The message reads: ‘The wagering change adds a layer of protection against bonus hunters and advantage gamblers, and we are hopeful that the change in the validity period will act as a stimulus for customers to consume the entire bonus – stimulating both top and bottom line numbers.’ Despite these changes, Mecca Bingo is bound to remain a popular destination for players.
