Ops Sorry - it was only a total of £2,500, so 5% was correct. Wishful thinking.GrubbyGirl_2 said:
That's 10% not 5%. I'd be very happy with thatHal17 said:Only £25 on FH. That makes a total of £5,000 for tax year 2024-2025. Happy with 5% return.

They are very likely to be around! Often grandparents would buy a premium bond for their new grandchild, which would make these winners in their 60s.Newbie_John said:
Not really, these people are likely not longer around - more or less they were 30 years old in 1960, so probably would be around 90 now - and these bonds have high chances of being abandoned/forgotten.IanManc said:Someone has won £10000 on a £4 bond bought in July 1961, with a total holding of £19. I love to see wins like that. I just hope they're still around to enjoy it.
And there's another with a £5000 win on a £25 bond bought in June 1958.
So sadly they just take prizes away from us 😅2
