Nothing this month, on full holding. 😕

Nothing this time. 

I'm the same @Kim_13 - was up between 5.5% and just over 7% for a good 18 months.  Last thee months have started with a 3 - September even started with a 2, after 2 blank months.  Worst run since I've had them - 43 draws now.  Even in the early days, the return was always in the upper 4s.

I set myself a rule that if they dropped below my average interest rate for everything else for more than a couple of months, they'd go.  We've reached that point now.  I have a big expense next year, so might just allocate the holding for that and use the funds I've already set aside for something else.  Need a think.

Seems some of the bad luck people are having on full holdings has translated to good luck for me: A whopping £100 win!

My holding since February has been £10k. So far I've won £200, including this month. If I can eek out another £100 in December or January I'll be happy with that.

£200(£100x2) on full holding.

2.90% return over the last 12 months, which is a reduction from 4.50% last month as a £1,000 win from November 2024 drops off the results.

A total of 17 months on full holding, averaging £191 per month.

Dugal

A single £50 win this month.  12 month total is £2000 on full holding (4%) so shouldn't complain too much.

brewerdave

£75 for me and £25 for the other half - both on full holdings. Need a good December win to get back to 3.6% overall for the calendar year.
