Yippppeeeee......!

Feb has been my best month yet!

Have only ever won smaller £50 amounts, with the occasional rare £100.00. The last win was for £50 in November.

So a 2 month wait, This month has won 3 prizes, a new first for me too totalling £600, made up of 1x £500 and 2x £50

so happy!

Dont know my total holding value as I would like to be surprised one day and told that it is maxed out, a sort of mystery savings pot currently which I add to monthly! Winnings are automatically re-invested.

Best of luck everyone...

Hi all,

Bit of a random question, but I'm hoping someone here might have kept some of the old Premium Bonds full winners lists that NS&I publish on their website, e.g. from this post in 2007! Unfortunately the download link no longer works.

NS&I only publicly share the last 6 months of data, but I'm trying to help archive as much of the historical data as possible. I’m especially interested in filling the missing gaps shown on this coverage page here https://premiumbondsresults.com/coverage

The files were either published as zips, txt files or pdfs for the older ones. If you still happen to have any of these old files, I'd love to know.

Thanks in advance

Have you ever looked at the FOI responses on 'What do they know'. For example someone asked for data on unclaimed prizes. I was amazed by how many were in Australia (around 4 thousand) with one 5k bond having 32 unclaimed prizes!! Another person asked for two year data from 2017-2019 which they provided altho not the bond number or location but it could be they didn't ask for it. It may be worth a look.

Didn't in the old days the prizes get published as a supplement to the Government paper of record The London Gazette?  In pre-computer and Internet days you'd be referred to it if you'd turned up at a Post Office with a query about a win that you did not know about.    I'm not sure of the frequency they received this though.  I am sure postmasters who worked when the Post Office was the only place you could buy Premium Bonds will have had these queries and what to do and how to use the supplement would have been part of GPO training.  Best example I can think of is an envelope being sent to an old address "On Her Majesty's Service" with a computer generated address, but the recipient finding out the new occupier had sent back "Return to Sender".  Of course it could be a tax demand from the Inland Revenue or a Jury Summons, but it could be one of those cheques from ERNIE in Lytham St. Annes....

The people who publish The London Gazette might be worth approaching.
