Before you start be safe!
Credit card security: 
Ensure that the security icon - the locked padlock or unbroken key symbol - is showing in the bottom of your browser window before sending your card details. The beginning of the retailer's Internet address will change from "http" to "https" when a purchase is made using a secure connection. 

Tip: By double clicking on the padlock, you will receive confirmation that the padlock is still valid.

Check with your card issuer  to see what protection they offer against internet fraud, most offer refunds  should you be subject to online fraud, if they don’t find one who does.
Don't give out your password. Pick a unique password to protect your account -- preferably one that would be difficult for others to guess. If you forget it, don't worry -- most sites will give you a hint or the option of receiving the password at a private e-mail address.
Play at reputable sites such as those featured by BBB beware of sites you have never heard of, you won’t get your money back and find that your playing against yourself and still managing to lose!

Playing tips 
If the numbers are coming in fits and starts, you may find it hard to keep up. At  most sites, you can do a quick spot-check by clicking with your mouse on open squares. If a square has been called, it will register as a daub, useful should you need to answer a call of nature.
Most sites have an "auto daub" option to bring called numbers to your attention.
A false bingo call (clicking the bingo button at the wrong time) is frowned upon and slows down the game. Players who have too many false bingos in a day might be penalized.

Online bingo chat:
For some this is more fun than the bingo itself, most bingo chat is moderated by a CM which stands for “chat moderator or  manager” their role is to stop things getting too heated, and stamp out any abusive or bad language (Bingo and it’s followers being the passionate things they are) .
Bingo chat follows the conventions of all online chat and texting except some abbreviations are unique to online bingo.
