What's the most prizes you've won in a singular month? I had 3, but my understanding is that there is no limits really (other than odds).

No monthly breakdowns given in this article from last year, but perhaps interesting anyway:

The luckiest ever Premium Bond winner has taken home a total of £1,019,850, across 288 prizes, since they bought their first bond in May 2004, Money Mail can reveal.

This includes winning the highly sought-after £1million prize, as well as one lot of £10,000 and £1,000, eight £100 prizes, 45 lots of £50 and 232 wins worth £25, according to a Freedom of Information request. 

One bondholder has bagged more wins over the same time, with 408 prizes. 

The luckiest ever Premium Bond winner has won the top £1m prize, as well as one lot of £10,000 and £1,000, eight £100 prizes, 45 lots of £50 and 232 wins worth £25

However, they amounted to £14,325, because they took home a high number of small prizes.

This included two £500 prizes, 18 lots of £100, 73 £50 wins and 315 prizes worth £25.

This sounds crazier than winning a 1mln

Oops, I now see that that was my fault when copy/pasting, the duplicated line was the caption to an image that I'd edited out!  Unless of course there are two holders who've won the top £1m prize, as well as one lot of £10,000 and £1,000, eight £100 prizes, 45 lots of £50 and 232 wins worth £25
