Well done Mags!
Nothing here
Well done Mags!
Thanks Azz, better than nothing!
So far this year Ernie has only missed us out once, but it would be nice if we came up with £1,000,000!
Treat yourself Mags, nice one!
You are very fortunate DS, I hope it continues and you eventually hit the big one!
I’m happy with my occasional £25 but wouldn’t say no to a slight increase!
Got 4 £25 wins this month.
Nice little bonus, might just buy some petrol with it.
Well done, Galty … Ernie passed me by this month :roll:
Well done Galty…like you say, a nice bonus for you…
Maybe next time Mags…
Naff all!!! again.
My OH has given me his premium bonds this week and told me to cash them and go buy something nice - which is lovely of him, but do you think I should - They haven’t won for ages and there are about £250 worth, so not a huge sum, but once they are gone they are gone.
never had any
I bought one or two when they started in 1956 and a couple more in the sixties. I have never won a bean, nothing, zilch.
Come to think of it I have not got a clue where they are but from memory they were the smallest ones you could buy.
I think I changed my location on them a few times but who knows.
Maybe sitting on a fortune, on the other hand the former Mrs H might have claimed them and done a runner with ernie.
Hmmmmmmm
Just checked the website and I’ve won £25 this month. Never seem to win any more though even though I’ve got £10,000 With interest rates so low though its worth the chance as I get a few £25 wins throughout the year.
Ernie has smiled on me this month as well … two £25 wins.
I have accumulated a £1000 of premium bonds over the years.
Had three £25 wins in that time.
I don’t know if there is any truth in the claim that you are more likely to win with a newly bought bond than an old one.
It’s also said they all get put in the draw.
It may be just a coincidence but my three wins were with new bonds:!:
Would we have a better chance in the draw if we sold the old bonds and replaced with new ones.
Haven’t bought any for years I wonder if that is why I haven’t had any luck with mine for years:-(
Ernie picks random numbers which are then matched against the bonds so its the luck of the draw and anyone can win. Makes no difference whether your bonds are new or old.
Yep just jesting really;-)
There are that many bonds I believe they use a few Ernies.
Still keeping my fingers crossed:-)
I understand what you’re saying, Reuben, as I think the same! The very first Premium Bonds went on sale 1st November 1956. I was fortunate to be able to acquire seventy-eight £1 bonds during the late 50/60s… not one of those £1 bonds have ever won! I’ve often said to my husband that I think they have been jammed in Ernie’s works!:twisted: Over the years we have had several wins of £25 and £50 … and two of £100 but nothing bigger than that and they have all been from the 80’s to present day:confused:
I have quite a few PBs the first ones purchased over 40 years ago.
Over the years I have had a number of wins never more than £50 and latterly when the prize money was reduced £25 only.
I used to think my wins were the equivalent of interest but I haven’t had a win for ages so think I am out of pocket.
On year in the same week as my birthday I received 2 £25 in the same post
A cheque for my last premium bond win arrived in the post on Friday 13th.
Lucky for some.
