Smoking and UK Bingo Players

The bingo halls in the UK are reporting to be suffering from the smoking ban that's been brought in over the past 2 years in various parts of the UK. The last and final section of the UK to be hit was England where the ban came into force in July.

The large UK bingo operators like Mecca Bingo, Gala, et al., are all reporting that the smokers leaving their bingo halls are having a drastic negative effect on their revenues and rationalisation is taking place across the offline industry.

So has this helped online bingo in the UK? Well to a certain extent it seems to have helped but whether this is primarily due to the smoking ban, or just the fact that UK bingo players are naturally moving online, is open to discussion. It certainly hasn't harmed online bingo though.

With such a large number of UK bingo sites to play in online these days, it's little wonder that so many are taking to online bingo. Have you seen the weather they don't have to endure getting to their local bingo hall this summer!!
