Halifax Savers prize draw

moneyhelpuser5

Hi,
Has anyone ever won anything from the Halifax Savers prize draw?
I'm in it - I think, though I can't be sure except an email confirmation from a few years ago! But I have never won anything and have the £5k in an instant saver. I also had to take out the £5k earlier last year very briefly but it is back now so I hope that hasn't kicked me out of the draw.

I'm just curious if anyone has any success stories!

Lots of results if you Google it.

Ah yes, but one was concerning the likelihood of winning and the other thread is 1 and a half years old. I'm just interested in users on this forum.

Yes, I won £100 from the funds in a H2B ISA about a year ago.

Can I see a list of winners?
Yes, you can ask for a list of the winners for the last 6 months in any of our branches.

Recently called in at my local branch and spoke to a member of staff, asked if I could see the list of winners. Received a blank look and was asked to repeat my question - she had no clue about the list and said she was only the assistant manager (!) She said she has never seen the list and would have to make enquiries and phone me. She never called me so I went in again and spoke to a different member of staff - I received the same blank look, she has never seen the list!

Not sure what point there would be to obtaining a list of winners - they could provide a list of prizes with a couple of random letters against each prize - under GDPR anyone can refuse to allow their details to be published and nothing that makes it possible to identify individuals should be released anyway.

A distant relative of my husband won £100k on this a few years ago but there was no publicity around it.
