RocketmanRon Posted May 14, 2018 #1 Share Posted May 14, 2018 I'm going on my first trip on Balmoral on Wednesday and we usually play bingo. Previously you needed cash but last year on the Black Watch they used your on board account to pay because of the risk of nova virus with handling notes. Will I need cash for bingo on Balmoral or will it be via the on board account? If I need cash I shall have to visit an ATM as I normally pay for everything on a credit card.

marylizcat Posted May 14, 2018 #2 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Cruises on Fred this year on Boudicca, they charged your onboard account for bingo and paid out the prize money directly into same account. Dolphin racing and filmed dog/pig racing was cash. Pound coins best. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parsman Posted May 15, 2018 #4 Share Posted May 15, 2018 As a regular on FOCL ships I was surprised that people still play bingo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marylizcat Posted May 15, 2018 #5 Share Posted May 15, 2018 As a regular on FOCL ships I was surprised that people still play bingo. Yes, it is very popular on all ships. (We cruise on lots of different lines). It is very expensive on American ships, but they still get a very big turnout for it.

Parsman Posted May 15, 2018 #6 Share Posted May 15, 2018 In the "old" days bingo used to take place in the Neptune lounge but as numbers dwindled I gather it was moved elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbo123 Posted May 16, 2018 #7 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Just got back from Braemar and at least one day NO ONE turned up for Bingo - that was a first for me to see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
