Nothing for me or DS. My holding is rapidly diminishing to pay for house repairs so I’m not surprised really.

ChessieFL · 04/04/2023 06:47

Nothing for me, DH or DD. Bit disappointed.

lightlypoached · 04/04/2023 06:48

£50 which is a bit rubbish in full Holdimgs as I won nothing last month

Might have to cash some out.

Just checked again and results now
up. £175 on max holdings.

I’ve never had max holdings before and still have it down as any wins to be reinvested - they’ll get paid to my bank account now won’t they? Any idea how long that usually takes?

Takes up to a week to get in your bank.

Took all holdings out, 70k in total between us, will go into a fixed rate bond 4.25%

The returns on PB's are crap now, removing more of the smaller prizes just makes for less reasons to hold.

3.15% as an average, simply isn't enough now, people will take their money elsewhere as we and many other people i know have.

Wheretheskyisblue · 04/04/2023 06:53

Mine is coming out today and going in isas next week. A total return of £100 on £30k over the past year is pretty rubbish.

BrassicaBabe · 04/04/2023 06:54

Hmm. Starting to agree with folks looking at alternatives.
£1,700 in 12 months on 2xFH. While it's fun each month it's not great is it.

fourhours · 04/04/2023 06:59

1 x £100 for me on £15k first time I have won anything bigger than £50!

I have nearly full holdings from May draw so 🤞🏻

I've always had it set to re invest but as I put more in I've changed it to pay out to me instead (purposefully wanted to keep it just under £50k so it's easier to spot myself when I obviously get on the high winners list Grin) I'm assuming this £100 will be paid to me which is exciting as I've never actually received my winnings only ever re invested them!

GooseberryCinnamonYogurt · 04/04/2023 07:00

£50

Feel cheated as have got £50k invested - never get a big one!

Hollyhead · 04/04/2023 07:02

£25 on full holding, not great but I’ve had a few good months recently so was expecting a duff one. If it were in savings though the interest would have been £120 (although then tax considerations on the interest) but it’s worth keeping an eye on.

UrsulaPandress · 04/04/2023 07:02

Nothing on FH.

Gutted as I’ve come to rely on the extra bit of money.

First month I’ve not won for ages.

Livebythecoast · 04/04/2023 07:03

£50 for me on 23k. Have won £425 in the last year so pleased with that especially as I've had to cash in a couple of grand recently.

Chittering · 04/04/2023 07:05

£50 on £9000. My first ever win! Been doing it for four months, and have been working on upping the holdings

yumscrummy · 04/04/2023 07:10

Just been looking at alternatives. I think that if you are on 40% it's still an ok deal especially as it's easy access. If on a lower rate then other options are more appealing. There's always that what if I win more though.....

DrMadelineMaxwell · 04/04/2023 07:15

Nothing for me on 22k

£225 for dh on 49k

wheresmyshoe · 04/04/2023 07:16

After many blank months I won £125, my best ever. 1 x £25 and 1 x £100. This was on £11500.

DrMadelineMaxwell · 04/04/2023 07:16

He's won just short of 1k in the last 6 months
I've won £275 in the same time.

JustLurkingAway · 04/04/2023 07:19

I've had £1025 since July on FH, most of that has come this year though, had a few months of nothing at all.

Gufo · 04/04/2023 07:22

Nothing here 😪

notthisagainn · 04/04/2023 07:24

£25 with full holding. Doing well this year

Sneakyblinders · 04/04/2023 07:24

£25 on £42k which is not good.

My partner has a small amount (about £7k) in savings account and he is getting over £20 a month - although can't withdraw for 2 years.

I am also thinking of withdrawing at least half!

DeepfriedPizza · 04/04/2023 07:27

£25 for me and nothing for DD

Okki · 04/04/2023 07:29

Nothing this month on £22k holding.

Veryfishy · 04/04/2023 07:29

£175 on full holdings , I’m pleased

Haleso · 04/04/2023 07:30

Nothing on virtually full holdings. Second month running…..
