Checked TIO to see if anyone had won and it's vanished!! Surely it isn't contentious 😂

@cptartapp Great! I have never won more than multiples of £25. Been very unlucky this year for some reason.

TowerRingInferno · 05/12/2018 09:22

nothing on £38k. I normally win £25 or £50.
Highest I’ve ever had was £125.

Riddle I have no advice but just to say I took DCs money out of their bank savings account as the interest was only 0.8 %. Have used it to buy premium bonds. I won £1000 a few months ago- the winning bond was one of their binds! So have reinvested that for them and will keep it for when they are older. Before that the most I have ever one was £50. It's just luck I suppose as have heard some people never win anything. Also have a £2 bond bought for me as a child that has never won a thing!

  • bonds not binds!

2 @ 25 for me and nothing for husband. Maybe the big one will com early in 2019.

Have a lovely Christmas everyone.

Also *won not one Blush

2x £25. Finally something decent after about 9 months with only a single £25 win.

Whatthefoxgoingon · 06/12/2018 21:50

£125 for me this month. Not bad!

AnnabelleLecter · 06/12/2018 23:16

£50 this month 🎉

champagneplanet · 11/12/2018 22:22

£75 for me this month 🍾 delighted!

DH got nothing this time round.

Sixgeese · 19/12/2018 08:13

I got £100 this month bringing my year total to £800 on a £50k investment. I am really happy, it did better than a savings account would have.

So just disappointed myself a day early by finding the winners online. Holding plus bond plus price. Guesswork tells me I have not won anything over £5000.

But one lucky person won £10000 on £100 in Kent!

Happy new year all

Me zero....again

MakeTeaNotWar · 03/01/2019 05:51

Boo - zero here.

It's my birthday month so was hoping for a bit of luck. Also I'd moved some savings around and added £12k to the pot. Good luck everyone!

InMySpareTime · 03/01/2019 07:20

£175 this month after zero for last couple!

Riddlediddle · 03/01/2019 07:46

£0 this month for my ds with his £15k holding

cptartapp · 03/01/2019 08:02

Nothing for me. First time in ages I've not won something.

lostinjapan · 03/01/2019 08:24

Nothing again (for the third month in a row) on £19k Sad

snowdropssoon · 03/01/2019 08:28

£500 for me, first ever win over £25.
I'm behaving as if I've won the lottery Grin

MarthasGinYard · 03/01/2019 09:05

Cele and snow

Fantastic

This rounds on you Grin

nevermindthebollox · 03/01/2019 09:29

£50 this month on a £16800 holding, the most I've ever won on it!! I've only had that much since June though and have won a a few £25s so it's going up!

nutellalove · 03/01/2019 09:59

Nothing for me. I've not won anything at all since investing 6 months ago Angry £7K holding. wondering if it's worth it

FiveShelties · 03/01/2019 10:03

cele and snow, excellent news

25 for us on 40K, so not the best return! Perhaps February may bring the big one (or two).
