Thought better start new one as last one almost full

Let’s hope we win big November for Christmas

£100 for me and £50 for DP. Maximum holdings for both of us.

£25 for DH and I each this month. He has nearly full holdings and I have about half.

£50 win this month on £41k - very happy with that!

@BlueGlasses

Was over the moon to win £525 this month, bringing my winnings to £700 since last April on £30,500 holdings.

Nice 👍

Got an email this morning saying I'd had a win. £25 for my first month in the draw with £20,000. More than makes up for the interest lost by taking the money out of a savings account at the end of November.

@fedup078

£25 on over 65k I'm starting to agree with a few pp that maybe this isn't the best place for my money And agree with another pp who said we haven't had anyone on here win big (or have we?) Does anyone even know anyone who won a big prize? Relatively recently?

My mum won £50k twenty years ago 😁

Another £25 win this month, that's now £150 total since June last year on 18k so better than most saving accounts (and where it was!)

It's our emergency/annual expenses pot so not for investing!

Trekker - wow that would have been a real windfall 20 years ago! I bought my first flat for 55k 20 years ago...

First draw for us on a 20k holding and won £25.
Better than It earned sitting in our current account!

£25 on max holdings, meh.

£75 on c£35k

£125 this month for me, we both have full holding. I generally get at least £25 a month - I think I've only missed out a couple of times in the 2 years we've had them. My OH wins less regularly than me

DH won £25 on around £5k & I won £25 on £43k. Pretty good for him, less so for me but better than cash savings.

My PB started off as short term savings to be withdrawn again for holidays, cars, rainy day etc. But I've spent less than planned on that stuff and now have got beyond what I wanted as a slush fund and think I should shift half of out into a better investment.

I have £30k invested since April 21 and have won £75 so far

Meh

£0 on £40k - it was zero last January as well. Disappointing!

£0 on £50k, same as last month.

What is the maximum? Is that per person so say me and my child can have £20000 each or is it the maximum between us?

I mean I only have £500 to save at the moment!

It’s £50k per person.

@ChessieFL

It’s £50k per person.

Thanks!

Just realised I forgot to update last week - nothing for me or DS, but DD won £100, her highest win so far in two years. DS and I both won £100 last summer, and DS won £50 last year too, but otherwise it's only ever been £25, or multiples of £25 if we're lucky. (All on full holdings.)

Nothing for me this month....again. I've had the grand total of £25 on 7-10k in two years.

Nothing again this month.

@fedup078 not sure what you class as a big win but PIL won £10k a couple of years ago.

@FawnFrenchieMum i'd class that as a big win
Anything that is announced on the website

I've had a cheque for £25
