There's nothing stopping you moving the money out of the account now if you wanted to - it just needs to be open, not funded. (A bit late obviously, but you could have withdrawn it all on the 1st Feb and still met the conditions)Money_Saving_Bloke said:No email or £250 for me. I’ll hold out for the email telling me I haven’t won, but at least then I can close down and move the money out of that account.0 -

Also received the notification email today, about 5 days after the £250 prize was paid."If you aren’t willing to own a stock for ten years, don’t even think about owning it for ten minutes” Warren Buffett

Even assuming you had the best odds of winning (1 in 34) in every prize draw your chances of winning in any of the 4 prize draws was not much more than 1 in 9 so like myself you'll be in the vast majority of people who won nothing.ForumUser7 said:

Oh well, it's paid a high enough rate to warrant me fully funding it all the time I've had the account regardless of the prize draw aspect so I'm still better off for having the account regardless.3
