    Has ANYONE ever come across a person who has won a million on premium bonds ? There must be loads of them around, the length of time theyve been going, but Ive NEVER spoken to anyone (or even to someone who knows someone) thats ever won it . On the other hand I have heard that a friend of a friend won 1m on the lottery ,lucky lad.

    i hold £1000, and have never won anything. :( had it for about 2 years aswell.

    Only 2 years? Try 15 years and no win (although my holding is a little smaller than yours).

    Silly question-does anyone know what bank account Premium Bonds make payments from (when they're putting prizes into your account)?

    I had a mysterious £100 paid into my account on 7 Feb, and I do have some bonds (though prizes are supposed to be reinvested, and have been in the past).

    It was from an odd account number-all 4's.

    I've done the decent thing and rung my bank, but they couldn't tell me where the money had come from.

    So this is my best guess for the moment. Is it right? :)


    ...There was a couple who confirmed they had won £100,000 on here a few hundred messages ago...

    Had put in £10,000 which entered first draw this Month. Won nothing! Was hoping for even a £25. Oh well next month I suppose...

    That's tough, jerrys. I first became hooked on PBs when I started with £2000 and won £50 in both the 1st and 2nd months' draws. Good luck for next time.
