Earlier this year, we tried something new and opened the ‘Easter Eggscalator’ bingo room.

What was different about this room was that it allowed players the chance to win a real prize (on this occasion an Easter Egg) on every single game if they triggered the progressive jackpot (PJP).

It was a big success, and we were really pleased at the feedback we got from players following the room’s closure, which demanded another PJP-prize room to be re-introduced.

We knew the room would be a success, but we were really surprised by the positive impact it seemed to have on bringing players together from all different rooms, which was an unexpected bonus.

Eric’s Prize Escalator Details

Immediately we started planning a new PJP-based prize room called “Eric’s Prize Escalator”, which is now open!

Click on the image to visit the Eric’s Prize Escalator page where you can find out all the details, including what prizes are up for grabs today.

Please note that the High Street room will be closed during the hours that Eric’s Prize Escalator is open.

To celebrate the new Ant & Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway Bingo Game, exclusively at Gala Bingo.com, we ran an exclusive competition to win tickets to the filming of last show of the series.

The lucky winner was zoe234 (pictured right), who made the trip to London with fellow FreeBingo player Lianne81 (pictured left).

Here is what Zoe had to say after the big day:

I set off at 8.30am as I knew I would be in for a long day, but it was very worth it.

I arrived at Manchester coach station and waited for my coach which was due at 10.45am.

I arrived in London 5 and a half hours later where I met up with Lianne81 from bingo as my sister-in-law couldn’t come at the last minute.

We were running late so got a taxi to the London Studios. When we arrived they had put a cross at the side of our names, but I explained the reason why we were late and they allowed us in to meet everyone else.

We met Karina from Gala Bingo who was lovely. She said she was just so glad that we got there.

Before the show we had champagne and nibbles. Well I had two glasses! LOL

We were then taken to our seats in the studio and waited for the show to start. When Dec came down the steps my stomach was turning so much. Excited wow I couldn’t believe I was seeing him face-to-face!

When the show finished we went to a side room that the celebs use as a dressing room and we had more wine!

After going to the little girls room, we came out and who was stood there? None other than the one and only Robbie Williams!

He was having his picture taken with the little cuties Little Ant and Dec.

At 9.30pm Ant & Dec came in for pictures. OMG! OMG! OMG!

I was actually stood next to Dec and I was able to give them a kiss! WOW WOW WOW!

When it was time to leave, Karina from Gala said she had booked a taxi for us and not to worry as Gala Bingo had paid for it.

The coach journey home took nearly 7 hours, but YOU MADE ME SO HAPPY and I would just like to say a BIG THANKYOU FREE BINGO & GALA BINGO for making my dreams come true! XXX

FreeBingo would like to say a very big well done to all of our lucky tournament winners from our recent Teddy Tuesday prize events.

This special competition ran from January 8th to March 12th 2013 with each tournament winner bagging themselves a gigantic ‘Buzzby the Bear’ who is the new mascot of Gala Bingo.com.
