I was around when Cheeky Bingo first launched in 2009 and it went totally bonkers as the first site to offer free bingo with real cash prizes. I was manager of a free bingo website at the time so I remember it well. Our player numbers dropped!
Over the years the site has changed a few times and the free bingo has all but disappeared. However, the site is beginning to enjoy a new lease of life under owners Entain with loads of the same bingo rooms and games you would find on the more high profile brands such as Gala Bingo and Foxy.
Loads of the unique bingo games that were previously exclusive to sister sites Gala and Foxy have recently come online at Cheeky, so the variety of games has really come on in recent months and because it is so closely linked to those other massive brands, the player numbers and prize money are pretty good.
The only downside is there isn't a lot that makes Cheeky Bingo stand out on it's own.
Bingo Games Available
Here is a list of all the different varieties of online bingo available at this site:
18+. New players only. Min £10 deposit & wager. £40 Bonus valid on Bingo only. 4x wagering requirements. 14 days to meet wagering. T&Cs apply. Please play responsibly. #ad
In November 2021 the site was given a full makeover which included a new pastel shade of colours across the site and an updated logo which got rid of the old cartoon Cheeky character.
To be honest I'm surprised it has taken them this long to get rid of that character in particular, especially as it could be interpreted as something appealing to under 18's, which is of course against the UK Gambling Commission rules.
The new site uses the same overall layout as it's sister sites Gala and Foxy, so if you've played there before you will feel instantly at home.

How to find the bingo games
When you login you are taken to the Cheeky Bingo homepage. Here you can see a slider with various offers and promotions, then below that a selection of the next bingo games about to start.
To view all the bingo rooms simply click on 'See All' or click on the 'Bingo' link in the top nav. This is the best view to see all the games Cheeky has to offer.
Each room you will notice has a heart symbol in the top right corner. If you click on this it adds that room to your favourites. In future when you return to the site you can click on 'My Favourites' within the bingo section to filter out all the rooms except those you marked as faves.
How to make a deposit at cheeky bingo
There is a large deposit button in the top corner of the site that is hard to miss. Simply click on this to open up the cashier directly onto the deposit page. Here you can choose from the following:
Debit Card
Trustly
PayPal
Skrill & Skrill 1-Tap
Paysafecard
MuchBetter
There is also one called 'Promocode' which I'm not 100% sure about but may be used for when you win a competition of some kind.
Click the deposit method you wish to use and then follow the instructions. If you see 'transaction currency' GBP (1GBP = 1GBP) just ignore this as this is for overseas players using different currency.
The minimum deposit amount is £5.
How to make a withdrawal
To make a withdrawal isn't immediately obvious what to do. There is no big withdraw button on the page.
What you have to do is click on your avatar in the top right corner. This will present a dropdown menu with more options. Select Cashier and then Withdraw.
Choose the withdrawal method you wish to use and enter your amount. The minimum withdrawal amount is £10.
Like with all bingo sites, you can only withdraw to a method you have previously used to make a deposit. This is to prevent money laundering.
Cheeky Rewards
Much like the Foxy Perks over on sister site Foxy Bingo, Cheeky has a cashback promo of its own called Cheeky's Rewards. Make sure if you're a depositing player that you head to that page and opt-in so that you can take advantage of the various cashback and offers it brings, such as free spins on your birthday.
See website for all the details and promotional terms.
Free Bingo at Cheeky
Cheeky Bingo used to be well known for offering more free bingo than anyone else, but those days are long gone.
They may still have free bingo as a limited time promotion. It is best to check on the website by going to the promotions page for the latest details.
Does Cheeky Bingo have an app?
Yes. Cheeky Bingo does have an app available on both the Google Play Store and Apple iOS Store (iPad & iPhone).
However, you get just the same experience on the mobile site so there isn't any great reason to download the app specifically.
18+. New players only. Min £10 deposit & wager. £40 Bonus valid on Bingo only. 4x wagering requirements. 14 days to meet wagering. T&Cs apply. Please play responsibly. #ad
In the footer of the website there is a contact us button. This opens up a help & contact page which at first appears to be nothing more than a list of FAQs.
However, if you click through enough questions in any FAQ topic you will eventually be asked if you need more help. Answer 'yes' and you'll be directed to a contact page with links to live chat, phone and a contact form.
Who owns Cheeky Bingo?
