  • If you are thinking of putting it in just to win a draw then no - you would be wasting your time - there must be millions of eligible accounts for each draw.

    Got to be in it to win it.  Your choice.  You're not going to win it every month if that's what you're hoping for.

    I agree that it isn't worth doing, given the interest rates on offer.

    If you want the chances of winning some prizes then maybe you could consider buying premium bonds, or adding to a holding you've already got if you have less than the maximum at the moment.  🙂
    What premium bonds do you advice?
