Premium Bonds-how do you know if you've won?

I've had some premium bonds since 1964. I've been to the N S & I website and put in my bondholder numbers, but it says I've won nothing in the last month's draw.
Does anyone know how to find out if I've won anything in the last 43 years please? Surely, by the law of averages, there should be a prize for me somewhere......:rolleyes:

    Nsandi will notify the prize winner at their registered address. So if you've lived at same address since 1964 you would have heard.

    When entering your holders number it states :

    The Premium Bond prize checker shows any prizes you may have won in May and the past six draws, along with any prizes unclaimed from previous draws. We normally update information on prize-winning Bonds by the third working day of each month. If you have won a prize this month, we will automatically send it to you.

    EDIT : Unclaimed prizes
    Everyone is contacted automatically when they win a prize. But there are occasions when people have moved and not told us. If you win a prize and we can't get in touch with you, we will hold on to the prize until you contact us. Don't worry, there's no time limit for claims.
