PREMIUM BONDS DEC INTO 2024

[Blondeshavemorefun]

New thread for when old is finished at nearing 1000

pleased to say I finally won £100 after nothing in oct and nov

here’s to a happy healthy and ideally WEALTHY 2024 for us all 😁

£275 for me on £42k. I'll be very happy if I get that every month! (I know I won't though.)

Nothing this time on £15k but achieved 6.7% last year.

Nothing for DH and I on 10k, but £100 each for our kids who have £22750 and £21000. Really hoping this is a lucky year!

Won £300 on about £25k
Please with that. Didn't win anything in Dec

Nothing for the kids though

Full holdings and a big fat zero this month - very unusual (and very disappointing!). DH got £175 though :)

Nothing for me on £19.5k
Nothing for Dh on £19.5k
Nothing for Dc on £4k

2nd month in a row of zilch! Meh … only 30 days to go …

Nothing for me on £7k. Have put another £8k in for the rest of the tax year, so hoping next month might be luckier

Dh won £100 on fh
Mine said there was an error on the app (still is now) so I logged into my account this morning and it says not won anything this month. Ho hum.

£25 for DD

Nothing for me on £12k
Nothing for DP on £15k

DP just said Agent Million's less popular sibling Agent Fuck All has been to visit 😂

Sometimes I wonder if they actually put my numbers in the draw! I just find it so odd that some people get lots of prizes off a FH and some nothing

@JollyHostess101 - how lovely from your dad! Congratulations. 🥰

Won £25 here. Better than nothing I suppose like last month!

We did well on 2 x Fh for dh and I
Dd got nothing on £3000

Dh £825 over 6 wins
Me £300 (3x£100)

After 3 small wins on FH last 3 months won £1000 today - phew! Have won a total of £1325 over last 4 months.

I am ruthless about treating it as luck and swear to myself that I'll whip the money out as soon as it underperforms the average savings account, but I'm starting the year halfway to a 6.2% savings rate, so I can't be too fussy!

I got £100 on nearly £25,000. I've "won" £425 since June which is great but I'm still well under interest rates as have hardly got anything before this.
Nothing for both DC on around £3500 each.
Also nothing for DH on a few thousand as well.

£75 on FH - ugh.
£100 on DD's 26k

£200 for me and nothing for DH on 25k each.

Happy enough

To put the numbers in context for the January draw (numbers from MSE):

5,843,447 prizes were paid out.

But that meant 122,706,507,340 bonds won absolutely nothing at all.

Well after checking the blue app and seeing nothing pending, I was rather pleased with my 2 x £50 wins on approx 25K.
DH won £100 on 31K but nothing for DS with 9K.

Being really nosey but why do your kids have more than you and dh

We have savings elsewhere and decided to put some into bonds as a bit of a punt! The kids accounts are made up of everything we have saved for them since they were born, plus birthday money and so on.

Pleased with £300 for me on FH. I worked out that I won 4.5% in 2023 in interest. So I will be keeping the money there for now. But with building costs looming, it has a short lifespan.

Nothing for me on £10k, fourth month in a row. It's the hope that kills you
I have a regular saver, a decent easy access account and a stocks and shares ISA but by diversifying into premium bonds I forego the guaranteed income or possibility of market growth for the chance to win! I have £22k in for February and convinced my luck will change.
