..both have max holding for last 10 years+,

1st time I have had 2 "zeros" in 2 consecutive months,

1st time we both had "zero" in the same month,

1st time we have had 5 months (in a year) with no payout,

1st time one of us has had 3 months in a year with no payout.

…..are they trying to tell me something??

I haven't updated my spreadsheet but have been tracking and doing slightly better than the nominal interest rate on a FH. £225 this month so maintaining that record so no doubt due a blank next month!

Only £75 this month and have 50k in since jan 2025.

Aye, I was referring to last months winnings. We still get paper winning cheques. And the reference to the envelope size, larger wins come through the post much earlier and usually in a slightly smaller envelope than the smaller wins that come later in the month.

I did check this month and its £375 this month, nearly touching 4% for the year so far, fingers crossed it keeps going!

Big fat £0 this month for me on full holding. Not happy.

2026 winnings so far total £675 or £96/month - not a great return.

Rolling 12 months total winnings £2,125 averaging £193/month so the rate drop really shows.

This is the first blank however during the rolling 12 months (haven't checked further), but may have to start thinking alternatives for 2027.
