    Good luck everybody - we've had a famine this year so far.

    p.s. Not impressed with the new look of the NS&I web site !

    I always thought I had cashed in my premium bonds when I was 18. The subject was brought up and I wrote to NS&I just to check and apparently I still have £100 worth.

    1 month later I had a win for £25 come through my door, bearing in mind I have had no wins or even any form of communication from them for over 7 years.

    Funny how when I write to them I just so happen to win something :rotfl:
    Total Mortgage OP £61,000
    Outstanding Mortgage £27,971
    Emergency Fund £62,100
    I AM NOW MORTGAGE NEUTRAL!!!! <<Sep-20>>

    If you can get £25 for writing them a letter, then I'm going to write them a novel for April:rotfl:

    If I have a barren spell - I cash some in and then rebuy....It does seem to jog something along and I usually get a win shortly after.
  • Just logged in to my account and have 1 x £25 for March won with a bond that I only bought in January 2015!!

    I know it hasn't made me rich but it's not bad going considering it is it's first month in the draw.:)

    Two lots of £25 for me on a £15,000 investment, that's £125 since August draw. About average I suspect. Wonder if the payout is £50 or two lots of £25 bank transfers.
