PREMIUM BONDS MAY DRAW ONWARDS

[Blondeshavemorefun]

Other one is almost full so a new thread for us to share all our winnings (I hope)

fir the first time I won £50 / usually £25 if I win

and May brought 25 and 50 so £75. Happy days

quite a few have won this month. Always a joyful feeling seeing the dancing lady in the rain kr sunshine

Someone posted a link last month (I think) and it said 'afternoon or early evening...' - presumably because of people working.

That said, people post different links every month and they all seem to say slightly different things!

Six.
That's how many times my doorbell has rung today... and not a single one of them was Agent Millions 😭
Did anyone get the knock?!
Fingers crossed for tomorrow instead.

Gingers crossed for you you kohla

Before all the new rises when I had 5 grand in I won 150 in 25 nearly every month in 2021. I didn't evening realise because it didn't update on the winning app!

That's why I'm aiming for 5.

Which accounts pay 6%?

@JayAlfredPrufrock Atom do for a 1 year fix. I think it’s hard for people to continue to justify holding such large amounts in premium bonds (effectively instant access savings), if you don’t really need instant access to that much cash. Another 2% on large/multiple holdings is a lot to lose. Obviously it does depends on what tax you pay on your savings as to what suits best

Wow!!!! 😯
150 nearly every month on 5k! That’s a fab return!!!

F.

Fingers!! ☺️

@anewbook.. Sorry...

I won 150 in prizes of 25 nearly evry month.

Not 150 every month.

It’s too late now to expect a call isn’t it? 😕

@SunshinDay I was amused at the thought of crossed Gingers

Good luck everyone, I had to withdraw most of mine last week as DD's needed to borrow money to buy a car, but hoping my little amount is enough.

When do I check the app to see if I won please?

From midnight tomorrow I think

Yes midnight tonight we can see if won high to 1000

Tuesday midnight use the app for £25 plus all other prizes show

Well unless the are leaving it extra late then they aren’t coming here.

I've worked out our return rate so far this year.

I watch 4 accounts with annual equivalents excluding mine with the big win - so far the other 3 are running with AE of 1.9, 2.9 and 3.6. The 3.6 is a higher rate taxpayer which makes it a good rate for him too.

How do you see if you won high to 1000? Without the app? I'm confused. Last month I just used the app

But I'm sitting tight in the hope that Ernie will send me to the sort of place where the price of afternoon tea for one has three figures before the decimal point and I can gain some understanding of why crispness is considered a desirable quality in a bedsheet.

@KohlaParasaurus Thank you! That really made me laugh! Hoping Ernie (or Agent William/Wilhelmina comes up with the goods for you.

There is a list they put out with all the high winners. They are listed by the amount held and county. So you look through the list and look for your holding and county.

@monotonemusings I usually put a link up that works after midnight

Sometimes people put it up before me if I'm not online about midnight

But I usually do it as well as my posts are easy to find as the op so can find link easier

I'm Off to bed in a mo

May be awake at midnight
