Although playing bingo in the UK does not necessarily mean that people only play for the chance to win fantastic jackpots and is not the key driving force of playing the game.
It is still really nice to win.
And if you win big it is even nicer.
Many online bingo sites have very large jackpots on offer and these sites are not only the big brand names.
In order to make large jackpots available for many of the smaller and less well known sites members, the sites become members of networked bingo operations.
Networking allows online bingo sites to pool their resources and provide their members with some really stunning jackpot prizes.
But many people who play at these sites are concerned about how they receive their prize money if they win.
This process is really all very simple, as simple as sending an email in fact.
The money is credited into your bingo account and you instruct them to withdraw it into your credit card, or whatever other payment method you used when you registered.
If the prize money from a bingo win is very large, you will more than likely be invited to go to the offices of the online bingo site and be presented with a check.
They will more than likely need you there anyway if you win large amount as they will want to be able to photograph and interview you on your win.
This is what happens in the case of many of the very big winners, so you needn't be afraid of not being paid your winnings.
Of course if you win that car you were after or a flat screen TV, this will not be able to be sent to you electronically and will in most instances be delivered to your doorstep.
One lucky winner who got the prize of a car on 888 Ladies bingo last year, was even allowed to select the colour she wanted.
Many of the prizes such as vouchers and movie tickets etcetera are actually sent by email.
e-Ticketing has been available for a very long time now so don't be surprised if you win a Trip to New York from an online bingo site and receive your tickets in your email in-box.
Remember to never ignore any emails that any online bingo site you have joined sends out either as they often use this electronic mailing system to give away free prizes and you don't want to miss out on anything as the prize has to be claimed, generally within 48 hours of it being announced.
