    Heres the december winners list of "top" prices,

    Pathetic isnt it? they cut the returns that much that it isnt worth having them any more. HM Government are having your money under false pretences and giving a paltry return with just an infinitessimal glimmer of hope.

    We haven't had any for 2 months now and we have the maximum holding.

    I wonder if it's time to withdraw.

    The million pound winners receive a visit on the last day of the month before, so the draw must take place in the last few days of each month.

    Same here.
  • I wrote to Nsandi early last month with suggestions about considering doing away completely with the £1M prizes and sharing it more instead with lower value pries.
    They have not to date replied to me, considering they specify that I would receive a reply in the next 48 hours.

    I have held Premium Bonds since the 1950's, some of which were bought for me by my parents as a child. I have yet to win anything considerable and sadly, the odds have now been drastically reduced once more. 1.8% is a pathetic amount of interest, considering that Tesco currently pay 3.6%. I feel I am really being ripped off and it's time to leave the sinking ship!

    Interestingly, I have never ever heard of the identity of any of these £1M winners which makes me think, do they really exist!!!
  • You're not interested in the measly £25.00 "prizes", then
