@Blondeshavemorefun oh yes can see I chose which option to have. Thank you for replying!

Parky04 · 02/12/2023 11:43

Nothing for me on full holdings. £350 for DP also on full holdings.

Mattieispregnant · 02/12/2023 14:05

£100 for me on FH and £25, £50 and 4 x £100 for DH on full holdings. Biggest win for either of us by far

SprinkleTheMunchiesDust · 02/12/2023 14:18

Yay! I won £50 this month 😁

I bought my £3000 holding at the end of February so I think that means my first draw was April?

And I won £25 in August.

I'm pleased enough with £75 in my first year/9 months and I hope to be able to invest more next year.

Thanks for the threads, it's been lovely to read through and see eveyones dreams and wins, no matter how small.

napsarelifewithtwo · 02/12/2023 14:35

£250 on FH and £100 on 20k, happy this month :)

Happiestathome · 02/12/2023 16:12

Thank you for the new thread. Wishing everyone good luck for next year 🤞

HamsterBanana · 02/12/2023 16:20

£50 for ds. I'm happy with that.

BumFluffBumFluff · 02/12/2023 16:24

£325 here. Quite chuffed with that.

Caterina99 · 02/12/2023 17:44

100 each for me and DH, both on 25k. Not too bad!

Igmum · 02/12/2023 17:51

Thanks for the prompt! I won £100. Really pleased (and is it tomorrow that Mr Millions calls?)

Bimblesalong · 02/12/2023 17:52

Placemarking so I can hear of Agent Million’s visit in the new year.

Ilovefluffysheep · 02/12/2023 17:54

2x£25, 2x£50 and 2x£100 for me on full holdings, so a great end to the year.

Have won £2225 over the last 12 months, so that puts me at an equivalent interest rate of 4.45%.

Pretty happy with that to be honest!

HewasH2O · 02/12/2023 17:59

£100 on around £12-13k. That's £425 over the last 6 months.

Someone in Norfolk has won £50k with a £5 holding from 1983. I hope they have kept their contact details up to date.

225 for me. I haven’t seen this thread before. I’d like to join in please! I’m very new to PB. Have only been in 4 months. Wish I’d done it years ago

WeAreBorg · 02/12/2023 18:08

Joining the new thread. Congrats to the £1000 winner sorry can’t remember who it was!

Musiclover234 · 02/12/2023 18:11

I want your luck on a small amount @Blondeshavemorefun . I think you have won more in a year than I have in 3 years with my 4k.

No win for me, only one in 2023 for £25 a few months back.

I've done the pb thread for a few years

Love the excitement of what if ......

Damonalbarnsbigtoe · 02/12/2023 18:19

I think I’m going to take half out after January’s draw and put in a high interest account. I just love the excitement of it though, sounds sad but it’s something to look forward to every month!

QuiltedHippo · 02/12/2023 18:20

Ooh thanks for the prompt, won £150 (100 + 50) this month. Only had £25 once is last 6 months so pleased with that.
14k holding

jasflowers · 02/12/2023 18:20

£100 on 10k, had about a 4% return so far this year, then again anyone can get 5% instance access, is it really worth it?

Edited

As I said this last year since they upped the smaller prizes I've done a lot better then when I had £30k in there

Think I had a few 25's and once £100 then over the years

But then drained it for ivf , extension 7/8yrs who and even this year been taking it out here and there as had ankle op and not working (self employed)

Will have to work our what I've won

£200 for me and £50 for DH, both on FH. A little suboptimal.

DrMadelineMaxwell · 02/12/2023 20:02

I'm chucking another 1k this month to raise my odds a tiny bit for future draws.
But I'm also making use of the highest interest rates my own bank offers on 2 of their savings accounts that I can pay into at the same time - one is 6,25% and another 4.75%. They'll expire in April and Aug and won't offer as high a rate when I renew them.

But I don't worry too much about my bonds realising the highest interest amounts they can compared to other accounts as I find it a good place to long-term lock the £ away and forget about it - until the draw day.

Wrapunzel · 02/12/2023 20:21

Nothing for me for the third month running on £10k Sad odds are pretty much a prize every other month so a bit disappointed!
Appreciate that I'm unlikely to get near the prize rate at that level of holdings and love the monthly excitement so wouldn't swap for a normal account!
My mum had £25 on FH and sister £0
