    Big holding.  I wonder if they know it exists.
    56 years ago, I wonder if they are still alive?

    If so I doubt they bothered to keep their contact details up to date for the £1 they won nothing on for the last 56 years
    Thre's nothing to say they haven't won with this bond in the past.... maybe their contact details will turn out to be wrong because they invested their previous £1m win on buying an island somewhere.

    True they could have had a monster win or opted to have their winnings paid elsewhere.
    Ex Sg27 (long forgotten log in details)

    Massive thank you to those on the long since defunct Matched Betting board.

    As an ex postie I was always surprised just how many people failed to update their address when they moved. Delivered quite a few winning cheques to peoples homes where I knew they had moved and the current occupants didn’t have any forwarding addres! One person had regular wins for the 4 years I was on the round always being sent back as not known at this addres!

    Not sure yet but I think I may have won  £1000. I have been out all day on the razzle down in Brighton, I did my early morning monthly checks on Premium Bond checker, downloaded the results , sorted them by holding amount, and it looked like my  Bond numbers, and the location was London,  but was in too much of a rush because we had to meet our daughter in a pub or 2 down Brighton.

    Home now, had quite a few beers, will check in the morning, my eyes ain't focussing too well now.

    If I have won £1000, that will be my best ever win,  I am  down to £8400  holding now.

    I will be back in the morning at some point, fully sober and refreshed and be able to have a good proper  check of the number
     
    Until then , bye for now.


    Corduroy pillows are making headlines! Back home in London now after 27years wait! Duvet know it's Christmas, not original, it's a cover.

    I suspect disappointment awaits you as the £1,000 wins aren't announced in the high value wins...

    Aren't £1000s in there if you download the file, rather than viewing the list on the NS&I site?

    Yes they are if you view the downloadable list (link above the high value winners list) - quite why they do this is not clear, since most of the list is the higher value winners again but with the £1000s tagged on at the end.
