The Sun is one of the oldest tabloid newspapers running today in the UK. It has become very popular for newspapers to operate online bingo sites and virtually every UK newspaper does this. However the Sun is a site with a difference. This online bingo site is much like the newspaper, all about value for money. They offer great prizes, super giveaways, free bingo money, bonuses and bingo tickets from as little as 5p each.
In August last year the Sun bingo changed its software gaming platform from Tombola to Gamesys, and I can say this has not made a disappointing change. There are some fantastic games on offer, many of them very similar in nature to the games available at their old gaming platform.
When the Sun Bingo first launched in 2006, they gave away free bingo money to new members who joined the site, and fortunately this is also one of the things that has not changed. They still give new members a first deposit cash match bonus, providing them with as much as ?100 in free bingo money. Of course if you deposit less than ?100 this is also ok, it is a 100% cash match bonus so even if you deposit only a tenner you will still double your money.
The Sun bingo is famous for giving away loads of super prizes, some of these have been very big in the past too. For instance when they first re-launched the site, with their sister site News of the World Bingo, they gave away ten ?10 000 kitchen makeovers. They also gave away a new home which was valued at ?250 000. These kinds of prizes are indicative of the generosity of this site, they always have something special up for grabs and promotions and prizes change regularly, making the Sun Bingo one of the UK�s most sizzling sites.
