I saw that. You couldn’t even buy £5 bonds in June 2020, which probably means they bought a £25 bond and decided to cash in £20 of it later.Dizzycap said:£5,000 Surrey £5 Bond Holding 398DZ755735 £5 Jun-20 It's not me but Nice!

Dec 2024 £50 win on £10k holding.
which means the three full months I’ve had £10k in there, total of £75 winnings, which is a pretty measly 0.75% - far less than the 6% I’m earning on the lump sum in Santander. Oh well, hoping for a better average over 12months in 2025.0 -
£125 return on £39.1k. Nice that all my wins this year have been in the triple digits, although still irritating that they all fell between £100 and £200.Jan 24 - £0
