Take a break bingo is a site that appears to be related to the womens’ magazine Take a Break and its design incorporates its logo. The web design, however, is considerably less stylish and features an unexplained cat called scratch (presumably a mascot?) and enough visual elements to make it impossible to focus on any one thing at a time. The site says that it was launched in 2007 and from the looks of the design it probably hasn’t changed much in the 6 years since.
Unfortunately the terms and conditions of the site are also more than usually difficult to find. When found, the scroller is broken in some browsers making it impossible to read it all. This could potentially cause legal headaches for the site if they were ever to have a dispute with a user.
Not a great start, but the bonuses and promotions did look promising.

This is a bonus of 200% on deposits between £10 and £50 up to a value of £100. This means that if you deposit £10 you get back £20 making £30 altogether. If you deposit £50 you get the maximum bonus of £100 and have £150 altogether.

Verdict
As you may have guessed from the start of this review, i am not the biggest fan in the world of Take a Break Bingo. The website is poorly design and the games are not very fun to play. I would steer well clear of this website.
