    We have 2 accounts one with £50k the other £6k only won on the £50k this month~ £25~ OH very disappointed and sad, we are saving for or 1st home, and every month he plans what to do with the ‘big’ win we are going to get 😔 I don’t think they are good anymore for his mental health ~ I enjoy the ‘gamble’ but is there a better way for us to progress our dream? Sick of paying rent fo 35 years, and neeed our own place before OH retires in 10 years, can’t do shares as we need a guaranteed return, help? 🙏

    £225 on a full holding, and £100 on £20.2k. Rolling annual return up again slightly at 1.95% and 2.53%.

    As we’ve used our savings allowances these equate to returns of 2.48% and 3.16%
