Apart from dropping the win rate to 1.8% has anybody else noticed that if you are a lucky winner the cheque takes longer to arrive? I have held a substantial number of bonds for a couple of years and have regularly won the odd £50. At one time the cheque would arrive by the 13th of the month now it can be as late as the 18th or 19th. Another money saver for NSI?

My winners cheque has always arrived roughly around the 18th or 20th. I've never received one as early as the 13th.

You can elect to receive winnings in either new bonds or a cheque, unless you hold the maximum (currently 30k). Then you get a cheque.
