Where's the premium bonds thread?

[SouthWestmom]

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

@Wonnacott35
They probably just go to next on the list. 😂

Noooooooi

No £1000 + prize for me, maybe a smaller one tomorrow 🤞🏻

I am about to receive my share from marriage separation and have been concerned about where to put the money. I can't afford to lose any of it so stocks and shares ISAs seem a bit too risky as I will need to buy a property soon. I think I may put some into Premium bonds, sounds quite fun and interest rates on low risk accounts are so dam low. I assume all you holders recommend it as a fun way of keeping savings either long or short term. I assume there is no cashing in fee? Am I correct?...grateful for any friendly advice

Lots of luck all

It's tmrw on app

No cashing in fee, just no interest if you leave for years and don't win . I'd say it was fun if you don't need to save and get interest

Just realised how long we've been posting on your thread....

One will assume the Knock finally came

Thank you Noeuf it wont be a long term thing so i think I will give it a try

It’s free to run your account and you don’t gamble your bonds just the interest (prizes) odds are poor. Something like 24.000 to 1 and most financial bods would recommend other forms of saving. But for me they work because I can add and remove funds as and when I want. Plus the excitedment of possibly winning.

Thanks vill I think that's what it will be for me too and if I find a house quickly it wont be for a long time and at least capital will be intact and lost interest wouldn't be much.....and who knows what might happen...

Plus they always repay within a few days - any time I've withdrawn it's been the same week.

I know! Almost two years and about £50...

£25 again... rubbish

How do you know already?

Whoop! 4 x £25 here, my biggest win in one go!

Nothing

£25 for me. @make that’s a great result!

Nothing for me or the kids.
Well done winners !

£50 for me so better this month! Well done everyone.

£25 this month.

Me nothing

Dp 2x25

£50 for me as well. It’s better than zero last month at least!

This is a terrible financial decision, but seeing as I’ve invested properly with the rest of our savings, I’m willing to stick with it for a bit of fun

And yes, it’s very easy and quick to cash in anytime. I’ve done it all online.

£50 for us

£75 this month

£25 on £15k for my ds this month

2x £25 again. Pretty pleased.
