    There was no obvious reason for my 3rd spin

    It must be the one I randomly lost a few months ago, turning up on your wheel! 

    (The page glitched before I could spin it the second time, and it said I'd used all my spins.)

    I get 4 spins each month - the first two on the 1st of the month, then another 2 a couple of days later, never know why! Got the 800 a couple of times last year.

    When I had £800 in credit I was winning more than the usual 8 points ( 1 penny ) quite often..one ..Since I ve gone variable direct debit with no credit of mine at all I haven't won anything more than the 8 points  . Maybe they were giving me a little bit back I lost in interest with a credit of £800 through a few 800 points wins . 
    If it's true that they don t make interest on money in their control then it's bad management because they are wasting it .I would nt really mind them doing that as it's no skin off my nose .

    Checked my history, 17 £1 wins prior to the new wheel of fortune, one 800 point win since it launched.

    I always thought it was two spins per month, found 2 more available tonight and won 800 points!

    I'll be checking in twice a month from now on.

    It's two spins per smart meter per month.  Nice win!
