Nothing here on £50k

TangoWhiskyAlphaTango · 02/12/2021 05:16

Nothing for me either, first month and put 17k in, damn still got to go to work today Grin

DollyPartBaked · 02/12/2021 05:29

£25. For the year on £40k, I've won £375 which is about average luck. Is it worth keeping them? Probably just for the hope of a million!

Gooseysgirl · 02/12/2021 05:36

£25 on £5k investment - this was my first draw. Happy with that!

PBond · 02/12/2021 06:10

I won £25 on full holdings, which I'm really pleased about as this is my first month of winning, after my first 2 months with nothing.

I purchased them thanks to these threads, as my instant access savings had such poor interest rates. I read the Martin Lewis threads, and other websites as talked about above, and it should still be better in theory than any instant access savings account. They aren't going to be a great source of investment, but it's fun to get excited every month!

RockaLock · 02/12/2021 06:25

Nothing for me this month. But I've had a good run the last few months, so I guess I can't really complain.

Scottishgirl85 · 02/12/2021 06:26

£50 (2x£25), I get this every month so no surprises!

Tailendofsummer · 02/12/2021 06:40

Nothing for me, that's about four months now of nothing after an initial exciting flurry of three small wins in a row. Have £20000 in. Not feeling very lucky Grin

ChessieFL · 02/12/2021 06:40

Nothing for me this month. I had a run of good luck last year when I first put some money in, winning £25 about 4 months in a row, which encouraged me to put more in, but now have only won once in the last 6 months. Still, as others have said interest elsewhere is rubbish and I like the monthly excitement!

InMySpareTime · 02/12/2021 06:43

Nothing again but not much in there.

GoodnightGrandma · 02/12/2021 06:44

Nothing here ever. Never won a penny in 50+ years.

OublietteBravo · 02/12/2021 06:54

Just £25 this month on full holdings. Not my best month, but not my worst either. I’ve only had one month this year where I didn’t win anything (August). My total for 2021 is £425.

Whinge · 02/12/2021 06:57

@GoodnightGrandma

Nothing here ever. Never won a penny in 50+ years.
That's unusual, unless you have a very small holding amount?

£25 for me this month. Smile

MrsMcCluskeysCat · 02/12/2021 07:07

Nothing for me £45k ish holdings, ive had a rubbish 6 months so I must be due the million next month Smile

bloodywhitecat · 02/12/2021 07:07

DH has won £100 which is amazing with the luck he has had recently. I have sent him a text telling him so as a way of seeing if he really can read (he had a major stroke on 20th Nov and is currently in hospital, he has no speech and can't type but he indicates he can read and looks at text for an appropriate amount of time, my big wish is that he can read the Whatsapps I send him morning and night. I know it is daft and he most likely can't read but it would be a huge thing if he can).

savvy7 · 02/12/2021 07:10

Total of £175 on 3 x max holdings

LuckyHedgehog · 02/12/2021 07:12

Another disappointing month here - £25 for DS and nothing for me or DD (3x max. holdings).

cptartapp · 02/12/2021 07:17

Nothing for me this month on £15k. Win fairly regularly including £1000 last year though so not too downhearted.

Eaumyword · 02/12/2021 07:19

@bloodywhitecat so sorry to hear about your DH. I hope he is cheered by your news.
We've had another good run - £200 on 2.5 max holdings. In 4 months, it has been £575, which is amazing.
I too love the rush of dreaming of a big win and leaving work etc.

sanityisamyth · 02/12/2021 07:19

£25 for me on £6.5k 👏👏👏

pinkfondu · 02/12/2021 07:20

£25 for me, that £75 in the last 6 months on £10k

Sagaris · 02/12/2021 07:26

I had some premium bonds that were bought for me as a child, many years ago - my sisters also had some. My mum gave them to my youngest sister to check - she was NC with the rest of us (abusive partner) so I have no idea what happened after that. I could have been a millionaire for all I know! Grin

fedup078 · 02/12/2021 07:28

£75 😀

zighead · 02/12/2021 07:29

£25 for me on 20K. Nothing for DS on 7K.

JayAlfredPrufrock · 02/12/2021 07:30

2 x £25 here on £49k.

Slow but steady.
