123BingoOnline calling me on my cell today...

[Greg]

So I got this weird missed called today and they never left a voicemail. I checked the number on Google and found something pretty interesting. It was a bingo room calling, I am guessing to offer me some promotions? I really wish I'd answered because it's good for me to hear what others are offering lol!

Here is the link I followed with their number: 888-793-6490

One comment has me suspicious that it's an employee, "You are right. They call me all the time with various offers, specials ,varifications of transactions, etc. Very friendly and couteous. Being a "regular" at 123bingoonline.com, I appreciate the call."

What do you guys feel (as players) about rooms calling you with promos? It's got to help retention some.

We play online, contact me via email.

Ok I will revisit this after I received a call from a new training site, it was personal and professional and well done, I didn't mind at all as it was done in good nature and not pushy. I doubt that would commonly be the case, but in this case the guy was just calling to entice a free 7 day membership out of me and I thought it done in good taste.

Being called is good but it has to be the right offer for you. If you get called from a room and they just tell you the offers that you could see by simply logging into their room, this is annoying!

I think the procedure here is that they exhaust the online contacts to a certain point and this is a last effort to re-activate a player. I hate the idea of calling people who haven't registered but I don't mind a program calling my old players who a) haven't played in 3 months b) haven't responded to email/messenger.

Back in the day direct mail was so popular. I remember getting cool things from time to time (CD's, booklets, flyers, shirts, etc) asking me to play at a site. I'm not sure how cost effective that is anymore but it's certainly a well documented way of advertising.
