£150 on 2 x FH

Okki · 04/04/2023 07:32

DH had £25 on £2.5k holding. He's won £100 in last 3 draws. Though zero for two years before that.

WowIlikereallyhateyou · 04/04/2023 07:33

£225 on Full holdings, best month ever i think!

Chasingsquirrels · 04/04/2023 07:35

Ohhhhh, a relatives just messaged me that they've won £10000. I read it as £1k at first which is great but £10k is fantastic. Pretty sure they aren't on FH, but they have got a 5-figure holding.

I've had £25 + £50 on FH.

CatMattress · 04/04/2023 07:35

Nothing for me or the kids on combined holdings of 11k. Rubbish.

ScrappyMoggy · 04/04/2023 07:41

Those withdrawing I’d be interested in what options you find. I now have FH but despite £75 this months I’m keeping an eye on it as I had several months of nothing!

h0rsewithn0name · 04/04/2023 07:44

£50 for me on £10k holdings. Pretty pleased with that, as it's broken the dry spell since November.

DuckBushCityLimit · 04/04/2023 07:45

£50 for me, breaking a seven-month unlucky streak. Current holding c.£9k but trying to add a bit every month.

WobblyLondoner · 04/04/2023 07:48

£1,125 on full holdings. That's my best ever by a long stretch. Nice start to the day!

Virgin ISA. 4.3% tax free interest.

On £50k is more than £100 per month interest. I moved mine as I wasn't getting anywhere near that on full holdings.

Well done winners. Nothing for me but I have won £25 the last few months on small holdings so I can't complain

Blue App is still saying this for me so not sure if still broken

An exciting morning. £300 on full holdings. It really has been a great investment over the last couple of years and earned way more than bank interest would have given me.
£125 of my DD's £44k.

OublietteBravo · 04/04/2023 07:50

£100 on ~£28000. That’s £600 so far this year (£800 in the past 6 months). I seem to have had a recent lucky streak.

Clickncollect · 04/04/2023 07:51

£25 on half holdings for me

YourUserNameMustBeAtLeast3Characters · 04/04/2023 07:53

£75 on FH. Could be better could be worse.

just worked it out on an annualised basis since Dec when I think the rates went up to about 3%:

Me 2.4%
DM 3.0%
DH 0.9%

DH has got the lowest holding, it’s very hit and miss on smaller balances.

WobblyLondoner · 04/04/2023 07:57

That's £1,825 since October - 3.6%.

mrsorangepyjamas · 04/04/2023 07:58

£37k and nothing for me this month! Gutted. 😡

InMySpareTime · 04/04/2023 07:59

First win of the year for me on £4k holding, and it makes up for the wait.

£500, which really made my day when I was going through an airport at stupid o'clock on no sleep and barely aware of which time zone I was in.
I had to look again just now to check it was real.

I'd be chuffed with that...brilliant result

Madcats · 04/04/2023 08:02

£100 for me. That's a nice treat for Easter.

Fundayout · 04/04/2023 08:03

£175 for us on just over £20k holding. First month to win since December

2023usernameNew · 04/04/2023 08:07

£100 for me with full holdings, back to nothing for DD on £3,600.

My annualised rate for the same period is 6.6% (and my actual annual rate of return for the past 12 months is 3.7%). Pretty happy with that.

It won’t last - I need to start taking money out to pay for building work.

LadyGardenersQuestionTime · 04/04/2023 08:17

Nothing for me on £11k but not unreasonable as I’ve won £250 across feb and March. Wonder if DH has hit lucky.?

MidlifeWhatNow · 04/04/2023 08:21

£150 on 30k, happy with that. Given that this year has seen us win £5275 altogether, I'll be keeping my PBs going for a while yet I think!
