    When I went to Prize Checker (top left) it did say April. Don't think much of the new NS&I site, either.


    Yes, it did say April, and then one moves to the High Value Prize list which says March, and states that the lower level prizes are posted on 2-3rd day of the month...must be an April Fool !

    Somewhat confusing.

    High Value Prizes are now up, BUT it still shows as March.

    £1m winner is from Greater Manchester............so not me :D

    I'd gone to the Higher Value list first (March), then to the Prize Checker (April), so am totally confused.

    I've just checked for April & i haven't won anything but i'll check again on monday or tuesday just to be sure.
    When it says "Sorry, you haven't won this month" this early in the month it should say on the end "...as yet."
    Or is that just me clinging onto any hope of winning anything at all ?

    So if the £1 million winning bond holder lives in Greater Manchester, & that's only 45 miles from me, can i say that that top prize is getting closer & closer to me with each passing month ?
    I'll put it down as a near miss, shall i ?

    It's done the same for me so I think I'll check back on Tuesday-I think it probably hasn't update yet.

    I think they are literally taking the month of the day you check on, but then only displaying the latest fully completed draw, currently still March.

    They'd help themselves and others by changing the wording of "This month’s draw" in the dropdown to include the month of the latest completed draw.

    Shoddy programming if you ask me! :)

    Small prizes are online when logged into their online service. Still not on the prize checker.
