AMEN TO DUKE & BINGO GIRL, i for 1 know whats its like to get robbed of our hard earned money believe me i lost a whole lot but it wasnt bingovega who stole from me, it was another site i so dearlly loved &trusted , they chose to join the devil also, then deny any wrong doing, and it just broke my heart in half,so when i read Beths post i had a scary flashback and thats why i just had to comment about Beths post i do in my heart believe 100% if you choose to be the devils helper you are just as guilty NO EXCUSES accepted. im am also 1 that chose to never play online bingo again. its sad that it comes down to this,ut i guess we live we learn

Just to update everyone. An email was sent to Vega Management asking that Mike Yates address all these accusations and to show the entire bingo community that Vega is now being run honestly, under this New Management they would allow an audit of their player accounts. That request was sent on Jan 24, 2012 and we are waiting for their reply.

First off..kudos to Beth for coming forward. I know it took alot for her to do so and yes she may be guilty of alot but as I see it...it was a job where she had a boss who told who what to do, when to do it, how to do it, etc.etc. Just as in real life, we have a boss and do as our boss says or we have no job :(

I have played at Vega (on and off as my budget would allow) for well over 10 years and at first was content as it seemed legit. Then I hear about this and it just makes me sad :(

I am still playing at Vega although not deposting a single dime...just playing the free games and I am seeing the same names over and over again winning the games. Recently (over the past 12 days) I have noticed there has been a rather large increase in new players? Could they be up to their old tricks with new house players ? Is there any genuine sites out there to play at ???

also bingo Vega, I was told I had to wager 12K to cash out.......... are you NUTS?
If you were trying to be a honest site you would have looked into it but instead it was all ignored. You think people will forget, trust me , when a player who WORKS hard for their money and gets ripped off, they never forget and they let all their bingo players not to play at your cheating site. I do not think you know what it is like to be honest or what it is like to make a honest living. You make me sick everytime I think about all the money you took from us players. We trusted your site. YOU MAKE ME SICK. I hope this all back fires on you all andyou all loose everything, Just like we all lost. Remember the man is looking down on you.There are choices you can make to make things right but your greddy and only care about yourself living high and mighty. You think you can hide behind emails , well we know where you are, easy to track people .Time to give the money back. we do not feel sorry for any of you.

Hi Dulciana :-h Welcome to BPU!

I want to thank you for that report and encourage others to report anything they think is suspicious going on at Vega. Some of you have played there for years and can tell when something strange happens. Player reports, like this are very important.

A big increase of new players is a signal that something is up. Sites that use Bot accounts (aka prop or fake players accounts) will create a whole new group of players into a site, while they retire other prop names. Prop accounts are very beneficial to the site, besides robbing the real players of wins, they also increase the player count.

Consider this! If the player counts dramatically drops at a site, the real players might question why and start asking questions. To avoid this a crooked operator will introduce as many prop accounts as needed to bring their numbers up. The house has absolute control over these accounts and can have them play the minimum to the maximum number of cards. For that period of time that Beths proof covered, you can be sure that if there was 50 players in a room, over 25 of them were fake accounts.

BingoVega's top management contend that that practice stopped since they took over last Summer. But from what I have read in these threads, from those of you that are familiar with Vega, its business as usual! Mike Yates is still running the game.

What say you?

As far as where is a safe place to play. Any site that we advertise at BPU has been checked out by us and safe to play at.Sadly! There is only a few US Sites that we found safe.

Thank you for the warm welcome Richard :)

Its been about a week since I last posted and I have continued to play just the free games at Vega..mearly out of curiosity... and as I stated in my other post its still the same names/winners coming up in all the games/rooms (these are the same ones that were winning last week when I first posted) I have been keeping track over the past 23 days now and nothing has changed other than the occasional "oddball" name popping up winning a game.
As for the free games..its the same thing. Always the same winners with the occasion "oddball". It doesnt matter if its the games that run from 12p-2p and theres maybe 30-40 players or the games that run 10p-2a with upwards of 80 players. By watching and keeping track like I have there is no doubt in my mind that something is still not right at Vega

Once a cheating site , Always a cheating site. They are too wrapped up in cheating players and stealing our money that they do not and will not change. I would love to see their homes and their cars they drive. And just think players who still play there , you are still helping them to live high and mighty. STOP GIVING. it is time for Vega to give.

I just tried to sign into Bingovega and this is the message I got:

If you are a member of the general public:

The fact that you are seeing this page indicates that the website you just visited is either experiencing problems or is undergoing routine maintenance.

If you would like to let the administrators of this website know that you've seen this page instead of the page you expected, you should send them e-mail. In general, mail sent to the name "webmaster" and directed to the website's domain should reach the appropriate person.

For example, if you experienced problems while visiting www.example.com, you should send e-mail to "webmaster@example.com".

So something is going on there

I know in the past couple weeks they have had alot of issues with the site going down. It usually takes anywhere from 30-45 minutes before it comes back up. Between that, the same winners over and over and other things I have been noticing something sure is smelling rotten !

Well I found out the reason I get this message:

This page is used to test the proper operation of the Apache HTTP server after it has been installed. If you can read this page it means that the Apache HTTP server installed at this site is working properly.

If you are the website administrator:

You may now add content to the directory /var/www/html/. Note that until you do so, people visiting your website will see this page and not your content. To prevent this page from ever being used, follow the instructions in the file /etc/httpd/conf.d/welcome.conf.

I found out I receive that message because I am blocked for letting players know to come here and read about Beth. I will not stop, they cheated me out of too much money and they need to be shut down

You are free to use the images below on Apache and CentOS Linux powered HTTP servers. Thanks for using Apache and CentOS!

hi i would like to add a post about bingoliner.co.uk and there sisters sites bingocafe.co.uk and kingjackpot.co.uk i played there for over 4 years and i jusr realised they dont care about there players they just want you to spend spend and spend but never to ask questions .if you ask any questions you are classed as trouble .i asked some1 that win the mega bingo if they were a newbie and they closed my account .it was funny that person that win never answered me and were never seen again on the site and you need to wager to withdraw i find it strange.i watched one day for a while there were 9 players 5 of them newbies and all 5 of them win in an hour and not 1 of them spoke .so my guess there were bots it all family that works on the site as well so u got no chance when you ask a question .there used to be really good cms on all sites but all the good ones have left or sacked
