Aw. That's good. I won nothing - only had them since September and won £50 on £4,000 so not great returns but i am due a tax refund soon, so YAY !

WhatHaveIFound · 03/05/2023 15:08

£50 for me.
DH won 2 x £100 & 1 x £25.

Tidsleytiddy · 03/05/2023 15:14

£150 for me

Abouttimemum · 03/05/2023 15:16

Nothing for us again on full holdings, that’s the third time this year we’ve had nothing. Said to DH let’s give it to the end of the year and see what our interest rate is for the year and then decide what to do. There’s a guaranteed 2k in other savings accounts these days.

Well done everyone who won!

JayAlfredPrufrock · 03/05/2023 15:25

Signing in.

Glad you’ve had a win @Blondeshavemorefun

LuckyHedgehog · 03/05/2023 15:30

1 x £25 for me, 2 x £50 for DD and 1 x £100 & 1 x £50 for DS.

I've also just realised I forgot to post our April winnings:

1 x £500 (our highest ever prize) & 1 x £25 for me, 1 x £50 & 1 x £25 for DD and 1 x £100, 1 x £50 & 1 x £25 for DS (so a much better month for us overall)

Blondeshavemorefun · 03/05/2023 15:34

Indeed lucky @LuckyHedgehog

£225 on FH, lower than the earlier part of the year but still ok. 👍

LadyGardenersQuestionTime · 03/05/2023 15:38

Nothing for me. DH hasn't checked yet - don't know how he can wait this long!

BasilParsley · 03/05/2023 15:39

1 x £100, 1 x £50, 2 x £25 =£200 on £24,500

ChocAuVin · 03/05/2023 15:40

Nothing for me Sad

CatMattress · 03/05/2023 16:02

Diddly squat on 12k. Bah

Gazelda · 03/05/2023 16:17

Nothing for me. I should calculate my annual return (on £35k holdings) but suspect it'll make me depressed at how poor it's been.

Logic says to take the money out and invest in an interest paying account. But my 'what if ...' gene is very strong.

ThisWomansWorkNeverEnds · 03/05/2023 16:44

Checking in! So has anyone won any significant amounts this month? (Over £100!)

Loq · 03/05/2023 17:02

Nothing for me! What time do they notify winners by email typically?

Trumpton · 03/05/2023 17:16

2x£50 for me. £250 over last 6 months
1x£50 and 1x£25 for DH. £525 over last 6 months

                         So a total of £775 so about 3%. on both our holdings. 

We each hold about £26,000.
it will do.

Cruis · 03/05/2023 17:47

Nothing for me this month, but it’s the first month this year where I have not won anything, £50, £700, £425, £125 so I am doing okay really. Just waiting for the big one.😂

LuckOfTheDrawer · 03/05/2023 19:31

Congratulations @Blondeshavemorefun, and everyone else who won.

I won £50 on a reasonable amount of holdings overall. I should pay a chunk off the mortgage really...

wheresmyshoe · 03/05/2023 19:38

Thank you for the new thread. Let's hope for a great June for all.

JayAlfredPrufrock · 03/05/2023 19:41

@LadyGardenersQuestionTime How can he wait. I was furiously pressing refresh on the app in the middle of the night 😂

Coldbit · 03/05/2023 19:49

I got £125 which is my best ever month. Its going in my holiday fund :-)

Modda · 03/05/2023 20:02

Do they email you? I can't get in on the app at the moment

nearly55 · 03/05/2023 21:15

£125 for me on my first month in (with just over £30K) - very happy with that.

Haleso · 03/05/2023 21:16

Praying for a better June!

Blondeshavemorefun · 03/05/2023 21:16

Modda · 03/05/2023 20:02

Do they email you? I can't get in on the app at the moment
