Or you can just select to show 'all' and scan through them on the web page without needing to download anything.
I do this, then use find to look for my county and each one it stops on, I check the holding, as I have an odd amount and the date of the holding and move on when it's obviously not me! Which is every single time.
For anyone new to this, the high value winners are shown on the web page already linked the day before the rest of us get to know and all regular results are available on the date shown (this month 3rd June). But if you're up late enough, you can check with your Holder Number some time after 23:30 on the day before the date shown (i.e. today). The date varies a little each month depending on how the days of the week fall - it's always a weekday.2 -

Currently it's a bit clunky and I need to re-write it so that it's easier to incorporate new bond purchases.If I do I could make it available for fellow bondspersons!
If you want to be rich, live like you're poor; if you want to be poor, live like you're rich.3 -
I do the same - view list, scan down with help of finger, firstly for county and then in my case for date of bond and then full holding or not. It only takes me about five minutes unless I find a likely candidate and need to get my bond list out to check…hope springs eternal but so far hasn’t produced anything!BooJewels said:Or you can just select to show 'all' and scan through them on the web page without needing to download anything.

Surely it's high time that they started releasing all the results on the same day?2

I do similar, I download the All Winners List, it opens in Excel, I enable editing, highlight the whole table and custom sort by Holding, then just scroll down to my holding. I think your way is quicker but I cannot write my own spreadsheets with Macros and all that., to tell the truth, have never tried but I do ponce about with Excel quite a bit but that is only for personal budgets and stuff.. A couple of years ago, it would take me 2 hours to check through from £1M down to the £1000's, going through a couple of million results, then I got quicker by an hour, I would conditional format sort by location to highlight London. The way I do it now only takes less than 2 mins, like I said, not as quick as you but quick enough for me.Bravepants said:BooJewels said:Or you can just select to show 'all' and scan through them on the web page without needing to download anything.

Corduroy pillows are making headlines! Back home in London now after 27years wait! Duvet know it's Christmas, not original, it's a cover.1 -
They manage to release high value winners at 00:01 on a Saturday where that is the 1st, but never on a Sunday - neither are working days.Swipe said:Surely it's high time that they started releasing all the results on the same day?
Months starting with a Sunday or Bank Holiday just add an extra day of delay.0 -

Mine is showing ... but it's for May! If you've got June then the lowest prize is £5000.... good luck!I Believe.....
That it isn't always enough, to be forgiven by others.
Sometimes, you have to learn to forgive yourself.
Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery
Today is a gift. That's why it is called the present.
happiness isn't achieved by getting extra things,
but by getting rid of the things that make you unhappy0 -
Is it possible you didn’t use the app to check May’s results? If a user doesn’t click to check via the app, it will display show results and give the previous month’s results until the next results are in.miniemma said:
