Yayy @MorrisZapp fab win!

Hubby and I had
100 on FH
200 on FH

Very pleased

Not a sausage on £40k Envy

Then a patronising message about "don't be tempted to cash in!"

YourUserNameMustBeAtLeast3Characters · 04/07/2023 08:47

£525 on FH, my best ever. Takes my interest rate over the last 7 months to the equivalent of 3.5%, which is reasonable (especially as tax free), but less exciting than today’s prize makes it appear.

spacechimp79 · 04/07/2023 08:56

£25 for me on 23K and £25 for DS on 9K. DH not checked yet!
Well done to all the winners.

longtompot · 04/07/2023 08:58

Nothing for me with 10k
Dh won 125 with fh

Cowhen · 04/07/2023 09:08

Nothing here, but just on 6k. It was my second draw ever. I won 25 last month on about 5.5k, so I was ahead of the interest then but not now.

bobby81 · 04/07/2023 09:12

Nothing this month on FH but I've had a couple of good months recently (£800 in June) so can't be too disappointed.

WhatHaveIFound · 04/07/2023 09:19

2 x £50 for me but nothing for DH.

Just worked out that I've won £8,475 in the 5 years since I first invested so not a bad return overall.

RockaLock · 04/07/2023 09:35

@Blondeshavemorefun that's fantastic, really pleased for you!

RainyDaysAndHolidays · 04/07/2023 09:43

£1,000 😁on 40 odd holdings. Winning was one bought end of in a chunk of several thousand, however my last win back in January was £25 (never had more than £25 win!) on a previously reinvested £25.

This month was going to be the last roll of the dice so to speak - much better returns in the bank!

I also finally figured out what region I'm in by searching the downloadable list. AND of course the delight at being on that list 😆

Yearsandyearsandyears · 04/07/2023 09:44

I won £100. Well happy with that, most I've ever won! Just over 8k holdings.

MayBeee · 04/07/2023 09:46

Wow best month for me . £550 ! full holdings was 1x£500 , 1 x £50 .
Dh not checked his yet.

Winning bond bought end of May

EvelynKatie · 04/07/2023 09:57

£50 on £20.7k. Better than last month's £0. So tempting to cash in knowing I can get better in savings.

Sunnydale1999 · 04/07/2023 09:58

£150 in total, so at least I got something Grin

TrundleWheel76 · 04/07/2023 10:10

Does anyone else daydream about winning the million? I'm planning to retire early and buy a flat for my DB. 😄

There's Manchester and Greater Manchester, I'm never sure which we are.

RainyDaysAndHolidays · 04/07/2023 10:42

Yes @Blondeshavemorefun it's similar- we have a G postcode but we're not Glasgow city, I was wondering if we might be just Glasgow, or West bScotland or Central Scotland, all of which are possible options.

Turns out we're West Scotland!

Minikievs · 04/07/2023 10:43

£50 for me on £11.5k, nothing for the kids on their joint £15k

Not great. Am considering reinvesting in an ISA

WimbyAce · 04/07/2023 10:47

Nothing for me, 2nd month in row.

ApolloandDaphne · 04/07/2023 10:51

Nothing at all for me and DH.

skyeisthelimit · 04/07/2023 10:53

I have won £100 on approx £17K. That's a total of £450 now since January.

MorrisZapp · 04/07/2023 11:03

Blondeshavemorefun · 04/07/2023 08:26
