Which category most closely matches your question?
>> My account or logging into my account
>> I cannot log into my account.
>> I receive the 'A different account is registered' error message.
ANSWER:
It is not possible to log into multiple accounts from the same location. This is confirmed in our general terms and conditions which state that only 1 account is permitted per player/IP-address/household.
You may see the following message when you attempt to log into your account:
`You may only play with 1 username per computer. This computer is linked to the following username: [USERNAME]`
This means that you or someone else at your location has already logged in with another account.
Unfortunately, it is therefore not possible to play from this location with your account.
ONE-OFF SOLUTION:
In certain cases we understand that this can happen – i.e. if a friend has logged onto their account using your computer just to show you how the games work.
Below, enter the username of the account you wish to use. This username will be placed on our one off whitelist and you will be able to login.
When you enter your username here you should be able to log-in again.
>> I receive the '404-error' message.
ANSWER:
You've probably received this error message because you are not playing the game via the http://www.bingocams.co.uk official URL.
If you are not playing the game via the official URL, you will probably receive a '404-error' message when you launch the game.
If you are playing the game via the official URL http://www.bingocams.co.uk and still receive the 404-error message, then contact us using this contact form:
>> I receive the 'Incorrect username/password' error message.
ANSWER:
If you receive the 'incorrect username/password' error message, you have probably entered the wrong username/password combination.
To request your username/password combination, you can follow the 'forgot your password' link that can be found on the player login page. Below is an example of this link:
Click on this link. A window will open into which you can enter your email address. Once you have done this, you'll receive your username and password sent to your email address.
If, after using the password form, you still cannot login, use the following form:
>> I cannot login because I've been removed by a chat host.
ANSWER:
When you do not abide by our chat rules ,
a chat host can use a 'kick' to block you from using Bingocams for a certain period of time.
Such decisions are always final and will not be overturned by the helpdesk.
If you have been kicked for more than a week and would like to close your account, you can use the form below to do so. You can also request to have the money on your balance meter paid out. A decision will then be made based on the general terms and conditions.
Please note! This form is for the final closing of your account! Kicks are NOT reversed.
>> I cannot login because my account has been closed at my request.
ANSWER:
If you've closed your account at your own request, we can reopen it upon request. To do this, fill in the form below. PLEASE NOTE: We cannot reopen your account if it was closed permanently due to a responsible gambling issue or if you are currently within a period of self-exclusion.
If not, play via Bingocams's official URL to address the problem.
If you are,
try to explain as specifically as possible what happens when you try to login.
>> How do I cancel my account?
ANSWER:
You can cancel your account using a link in our newsletter. At the bottom of every newsletter is a link which you can follow to unsubscribe from the newsletter. Next to it is a link which you can follow to cancel your account.
If you don't have access to a newsletter for the link, you can use the following form to immediately cancel your account.
PLEASE NOTE! Your username remains linked to your computer, even when the username is no longer active. It is therefore not possible to open a new account when one has been closed.
>> How do I edit my account details?
ANSWER:
You can edit your details from within your account. However, you will not be able to edit your name, date of birth or username.
To change your details, click on the 'Account' link in the bottom right of the game. Select 'My Details' from the menu.
A window containing all your details will appear. Click on a field to edit its contents.
Then click on the 'Save details' button. Your details have now been edited.
Your username, name or date of birth cannot be edited, this is due to security reasons.
When it is absolutely necessary to edit these details (for instance if your username does not conform to our general terms and conditions), you can request this by filling in the form below:
Warning! Each username must be unique and non offensive.
>> I have another question about my account.
ANSWER:
If your query does not match any of the above questions, you can use this form to raise your question.
We will answer your question as soon as possible, although sometimes this may take up to 48 hours.
Try to describe your query as clearly as possible so that we can help you immediately.
>> Bonus codes and bonuses
>> I have a question about bonus codes.
>> My bonus code is not being accepted.
ANSWER:
Your bonus code is probably not being accepted for one of the following reasons:
- Your bonus code is no longer valid. For dates of validity, check the email in which you received the bonus code.
- Your bonus code does not belong to your account. Bonus codes are created specifically for your account and cannot be used for a different account.
- You have not entered the bonus code into the correct field.
If you are unsure about the validity of your bonus code, you can fill in the following form:
>> When do I receive my next bonus code? / I would like a bonus code!
ANSWER:
We often send bonus codes by email. This takes place about once a week, but sometimes we do skip a week.
It's always a surprise and unfortunately the helpdesk cannot tell you when the next bonus code will be sent.
May I have an extra bonus code?
In the interest of fairness we send our bonus codes to everyone at the same time.
Unfortunately, it is therefore not possible to receive extra bonus codes.
You can, however, influence how much bonus you receive with our 'deposit bonuses'. As a regular player, you can receive more bonus by depositing a larger amount!
>> Do I receive a bonus when I make a deposit?
ANSWER:
Yes, Bingocams offers a very generous 50% reload bonus on every deposit made. You don’t have to do anything to claim this. Simply make your deposit and we will add the 50% bonus to you’re bonus meter immediately. http://www.bingocams.co.uk/bonuscode
>> Just after depositing, I got a newsletter with bonuscode!
ANSWER:
You ONLY receive a bonus code if you enter this bonus code before making a deposit.
We understand that it can be annoying when you make a deposit before receiving a bonus code. Unfortunately, we have to draw the line somewhere. Therefore, you will have to make another deposit in order to receive the bonus.
TIP: You can consider making a withdrawal of the deposit you made before you received the bonus code.
Please note; if you take a withdrawal from your balance meter, you may forfeit the bonus amount that you have at the time.
The game gives a warning if this is the case.
>> I've accidentally deleted my bonus email. Can you resend it?
ANSWER:
Unfortunately not. Our system automatically creates a personal bonus code for every player when the newsletters are sent out.
These bonus codes are therefore only issued once.
Almost all email programs have a 'recycle bin' or a 'deleted items' folder. Check whether you can find the email in one of these.
>> I have a different question regarding bonus codes.
ANSWER:
If you have a question about bonus codes which is not mentioned above, please use the following form to contact us:
Please mention the bonus code if you have it!
>> I have a question about bonus credit.
>> How does the unlocking / paying out of bonus credit work?
ANSWER:
Here we will briefly explain how our bonus system works:
When you receive a bonus, it appears in your bonus meter. You must then unlock this bonus so that it can be added to the balance meter (therefore making it available for withdrawal).
You start buying cards using bonus funds once your cash balance is zero.
If your bonus amount is £50, when, after a number of rounds, you have bought £50 worth of cards, you have wager your total bonus amount once.
When you win, your prize is again added to your bonus meter. This way it is possible to actually wager the bonus a number of times.
To unlock a bonus you must wager the original amount 6 or 10 times in full (depending on the bonus). The above example requires the player to wager £50 in full 6 times (£300).
When the bonus has been unlocked, it appears in your balance meter, and it is then possible to have it paid out.
If you have no credit on your balance meter, you can bet this bonus. In other words, you buy cards using your bonus meter.
Every time you buy cards, you are unlocking the bonus bit by bit. When you have bet the full value of the original bonus (£25 in this case), we say that it has been unlocked 1x.
If the bonus must be bet 10x to unlock it, you must bet a total of 10x £25 - or £250 - using your bonus meter.
All winnings from bets made from your bonus meter are added to your bonus meter. Therefore, it is possible to wager the £250 with the £25 bonus so that the bonus is unlocked.
When the bonus has been unlocked, the unlocked amount is transferred directly to the balance meter.
>> My bonus credit has run out. Have I now unlocked it?
ANSWER:
When the bonus credit on your bonus meter is finished, there is no bonus credit left to unlock.
You will notice that the bonus has disappeared from your bonus overview. Better luck next time!
>> I have just bet an amount, but I have seen no change in the 'remaining wagering requirement'.
ANSWER:
REASON 1: A bonus can only be unlocked during a round in which at least 5 players have bought cards. If fewer players have bought cards, the round does not count towards the unlocking of the bonus.
REASON 2:
When you have less than 1/10 of the bonus amount to be unlocked, it will not appear in the bonus overview. This is because we round off the unlocked amount to 1 decimal in the overview.
Only once you have bet 1/10 of the amount to be unlocked does this show in the statistics.
For example, if you would like to unlock £50 you will only see a change in the statistics when you have bet a total of £5 from the bonus amount.
>> After the round, my 'Remaining number of bets' in the bonus overview suddenly increases again.
ANSWER:
Bonuses can only be unlocked during rounds in which a minimum of 5 players have bought cards.
The bonus overview is immediately adjusted when cards for the next round are bought using bonus credit. At that time, we have no way of knowing what the number of players will be for the following round. When the round starts and it appears that fewer than 5 people have bought cards, the bonus overview is readjusted.
If you notice your 'remaining number of bets' suddenly increasing at the start of a round, it means that fewer than 5 people have bought cards, and that your bet in this round doesn't contribute to the unlocking of the bonus.
>> I have a different question about my bonus credit.
ANSWER:
If you have a question about a bonus which is not mentioned above, please contact us using the following form:
>> I have a question about newsletters.
>> When are newsletters sent?
ANSWER:
We send newsletters on a regular basis. These newsletters often contain bonuscodes to receive exta bonus money on top of your deposit,
or even receive bonuses without having to deposit.
This newsletter is also used to keep you informed about news on the platform, and important announcements.
We usually send one or multiple newsletters a week. We do always reserve the right to skip one or more newsletters.

You cannot receive a withdrawal because the payout details which you entered have not been saved, or you have not filled in all the necessary details.
Enter all your details. Make sure that you do NOT click on the right-hand 'withdraw' button at the bottom of the form, but on the 'save' button!
You will then receive a notification informing you that your details have been saved. Then you can complete your withdrawal.

>> Why have I not received any money for my Live Win Moment?
ANSWER:
You only receive extra cash (on top of your prize winnings) for your Live Win Moment if you allow it to be used for promotional purposes, thus enabling us to place it on our website or use it to promote Bingocams.
Unfortunately, it is not always possible to offer your Live Win Moment for promotional purposes.
If your Live Win Moment has not been offered up for promotional purposes, you won't receive any cash for it.
It is also not possible to claim such money in the event of a malfunction, as the receipt of this extra money for the use of your Live Win Moment is separate from the prizes (which are rightfully yours) given when you win with a full card, and is granted at the discretion of Bingocams.
>> Why have I not received any status points?
ANSWER:
You only receive status points if at least 10 players have bought cards for a round.
Please note! That although there may be more than 10 players visible in the room some of these may not have purchased cards
>> I have a complaint about a chat host or player.
ANSWER:
Unfortunately, the helpdesk cannot provide you with any specific information regarding this. The helpdesk does not mediate between chathosts and players. It is there to support players who have questions about the game, or have specific questions regarding their accounts.
In the rooms in which they are active, the chat hosts can temporarily suspend players' access to Bingocams, and can do this at their own discretion when they feel that this will improve the general atmosphere.
If you experience problems with a player, you can inform a chat host using an 'abuse' report.
Sending an abuse report:
In the player list, click on the name of the peron who is, according to you, not obeying the chat rules.
A number of options will appear. When you click on 'report abuse', you can inform the chat hosts about the misconduct of a certain player anonymously. This form can also be filled in when no chat host is present. In the window that opens when you click on 'report abuse', enter the nature of the complaint by clicking on 'Nature of the complaint' and selecting the relevant option. You can also enter a description of what has happened and send it by clicking on 'report misconduct'. You can be assured that we will take these reports very seriously and will swiftly take appropriate action.
>> I have a different question.
ANSWER:
If you have a question that is not mentioned above, you can use the following form to contact us:
Please ensure you include as much information as possible so we can answer your query in full.
We will reply to your message as soon as possible. However, in some cases this can take up to 48 hours. Please refrain from sending the same question more than once. All emails are handled in the order in which we receive them.
