Thanks for the new thread.

Happy with that.

Marking my place so I can let you all know about my big June win Wink

Couldhavebeenme2 · 06/05/2021 22:16

Urgh. I only started in April with £25,have set up a standing order for a further £25 a month. Will be 166 years 8 months until I have the maximum investment. Hope I win something before then... Wink

I've not won since 2019 but I've upped my bonds from £3k to £25k so hoping for something in June. Good luck to everyone in the June draws!

Lepetitpiggy · 06/05/2021 22:47

No wins April or May for me. Last one was 50 in April and before that I'd won around 200 over 18 months with 10k. Definitely better than a regular savings account!

Lepetitpiggy · 06/05/2021 22:47
  • March not April!
WowIlikereallyhateyou · 07/05/2021 20:32

£75 on max holdings, ok this month.

Someaddedsugar · 07/05/2021 20:35

Nothing for us yet but there’s always June!

UnkindlyMay · 07/05/2021 20:38

£25 for us. Friday snacks all round.

DrMadelineMaxwell · 07/05/2021 20:40

£25 for me on nearly £21k.
2 x £25 for dh on £40k.

Gazelda · 07/05/2021 20:53

I won £25 in May, with £30k invested. I bought a silk pillowcase.

I'm averaging about 2% earnings per year.

The money is parked in PBs ready for when we get our extension and kitchen built this summer. I'm almost hoping the building gets delayed so that I can keep the money in bonds longer to increase my chances of a big win!

DeathAndTaxis · 07/05/2021 22:17

£25 here 🙂

lillg · 07/05/2021 23:18

Marking my place so I can see other people winning and remind myself to leave the money in. We have £26k in at the moment, but increasing it monthly. Not won anything this year yet!

Thecazelets · 08/05/2021 13:53

Nothing (for the second month running) for me on max holding and dh on about 11k. Pah.

PetuniaButterworth · 08/05/2021 18:30

Nothing this month but I'll have an extra £2545 eligible for June

Kezzie200 · 08/05/2021 21:28

I follow our family holdings and we should win 25 x 5 a month. May we won 6!

Tequilamockinbird · 08/05/2021 21:36

Oh can I join in please? Didn't know there was a premium bond thread on here.

I have £13k invested. Won £25 in March, nothing in April, and 2 x £25 in May.

I first invested around 12 months ago and have won about £200 so far.

Once again I didn't win a thing (£10,000 of bonds since 2005 and never a single win).

Anyone know why the maximum holding is £50k by the way?

Blondeshavemorefun · 09/05/2021 07:39

Never @Hazel444. That’s rough

OP posts:
justanotherneighinparadise · 09/05/2021 08:33

If you e won nothing since 2005 my best advice would be to take it all out and put it all back in again. For some odd reason this seems to work.

Hazel444 · 09/05/2021 08:33

@Blondeshavemorefun

Never *@Hazel444*. That’s rough
I know! It hasn't dampened my optimism though, and I still hope for a big win every month 😂
