£25 in July 2012 for me, nothing since.

Mind you I am only holding £1,000 at the moment so opportunity cost of £24 net at 3% gross in the last year.

Yes on the homepage it is still showing 'Have you won in the June 2013 draw?' That box usually takes a day or two longer to update.

If you are registered to use their online service try logging in (using surname, NS&I number and password) and then checking for any prizes.
I have found this way to be the most accurate way of checking for prizes.

I logged in today and before I got to check if I had any prizes it came up with a secure message saying 'Premium Bonds: Congratulations!' (which it usually does when you have a prize), then on the menu on the left hand side I selected 'Prize history', then selected my 'Holders number' followed by this month 'July' and it displayed this months prizes.

The Key Result

You are lucky - only 13.8% of people who have put £30,000 in premium bonds over 3 months win more than £150.

during 2012 i won exactly the 1.75% expected return on the full £30,000 allocation. i have since cashed in. may buy again at some stage.

In the past year, on a £5,000 holding, I won 3x£25 prizes. Basically a 1.5% return over a year which is a bit disappointing since it's below the average.

It's not bad - I have a larger holding than that and average below 1% over about five years.

The July checker is on the home page now.
