How do so many bingo sites offer such huge percentage increases on your deposit? Do most of them really make enough money and have enough deposits that they can fund this?

hey greay question- have never really thought about that. But you are right. Are there so many $50 deposits that it is enough to payout everyone who wins there?

When you state "percentage increases on deposits" are you talking about those 500% deposit BONUSES? If so, they don't have to have the cash to do it with....it's 'funny money' because with the high playthru required, they are almost guaranteed that you will never cash out anything you win. You deposit $50, get an 'additional' $250 in bonus money (500%) and playthru amounts to 3X the total of both amounts or $750.00. So, even if you get 'lucky' enough to win a $1000 coverall game, you would only be able to cash out $250 AFTER spending $750.00.....and even at that you would have to HOPE to heaven that you won that grand with the last couple of bonus bucks in your account...otherwise you are spending $750 in CASH before getting to the bonus amount and that would be forfeited as soon as you requested the cashout. Now if you are playing slots...you are looking at a playthru of 12X (or more at some sites) instead.

Bonus money is NEVER real money that comes from the site....it is strictly used as a carrot to dangle in front of the unsuspecting soul so they deposit and then deposit again to get another bonus and then deposit again to get another bonus. Eventually, you have deposited CASH for bogus bonus money to the tune of what could be the total of that elusive $1000 coverall game....

OMG!!! I never thought of it that way but when you spell it out it seems such an exorbitant amount that has to be deposited so that you can cash out anything. I don't think I will be looking at bonuses the same way ever again.
