Thank you!

Blondeshavemorefun · 02/05/2022 11:10

Guess I’m not a millionaire

let’s hope for my plea of £5k win tomorrow

Does anyone know how they contact the millionaire winners? Just so I can be ready 🤣

RubbishDay · 02/05/2022 14:04

When it gets to this time of the day I tend to think it won't be me 🤔. Maybe next month for the big one.

RockaLock · 02/05/2022 15:20

No phone call for me either Sad

I haven't won anything since Feb (£20k ish holdings) so even a £25 prize would be very welcome this month!

Carpediem15 · 02/05/2022 16:28

It is not a phone call it is a knock on the door you want.

Agent Million visits you either 'in the afternoon or the evening before the first working day of the month, ahead of the news being published in the media'.

Pemba · 02/05/2022 17:06

Are they back to doing in person visits then? I know that for a long while they had swapped to phone calls only, due to Covid.

No visit or phone call for me. 😩

ThatPosterIsSoRight · 02/05/2022 17:19

I don’t know why I think I’ll win the million when I don’t even win £25 most months!

good luck for tomorrow everyone!

I am obsessed with the idea they randomly turn up at your address and just knock. I just want to know the logistics for this!

No knock / phone call here though.

What happens if your Husband or partner has absolutely no idea you've got premium bonds then agent millionaire drops the bombshell you've just won the big one whilst sat on your sofa.

Blondeshavemorefun · 02/05/2022 19:35

Why would you hide you have pb from your partner

My money my bonds. He's a spender, I'm a saver, we keep things separate.

My DH tends to let me get on with managing our savings and isn't interested in the detail (once a year I get him to dig out the passwords for his own SIPP and he appears surprised that there's some money in it) and I suspect his response to a big win would be, "I didn't know you had Premium Bonds," even though I told him when I bought them. But there's thread after thread on here featuring women who would be well advised to keep their financial situation hidden from their partner.

Blondeshavemorefun · 02/05/2022 21:12

I get that. My dh is the same. I’m the saver and good with money. He isn’t

bur if I won a big one I would share

the small wins of £25 I tell him and usualLy goes on a Chinese etx

would you not tell him

OP posts:
userxx · 02/05/2022 22:39

If I won big, he'd obviously know as I'd move out and leave him here, I'd take the dog though 😏.

Overthebow · 02/05/2022 22:42

What if you aren’t in when they knock?

FiveShelties · 02/05/2022 23:17

They give it to the next on the list, which happens to be me - sorryGrin

Blondeshavemorefun · 03/05/2022 07:21

Sighs

i am not a big winner 🥲

maybe a smaller one will happen

OP posts:
fedup078 · 03/05/2022 07:22

No big win here
I think unless something spectacular happens tomorrow I'll be looking to move it to a higher rate account the way things are going

RockaLock · 03/05/2022 08:20

No big win here for me either. Sigh.

RubbishDay · 03/05/2022 08:34

None for me. Roll on tomorrow.

Good luck everyone 🤞

Gufo · 03/05/2022 08:45

No big win here either which is annoying as I'd already decided I'd spend it on a holiday Grin.

Namechangeplease · 03/05/2022 08:59

Is anyone else’s PB prizes app not updating properly? The app normally shows if I’ve won each month, but beforehand, it normally tells me how many days before the next prize draw. For the last few days, the app just says what I’ve won in April. Just wondered if anyone else has had this too?

ChessieFL · 03/05/2022 09:56

Mine tells me it’s 1 day until the next reveal.

nevertoooldforindie · 03/05/2022 10:11

Mine too
