    So according to the MSE PB calculator next month you should win £50 ;)

    Does your 5 months include the initial month where the bonds are not eligible?

    Won another £25 this month.

    I have won £75 (3 x £25) since January (Feb, May, June) on funds total as of June 2017 of £4000 (so now total £4075). My holding was £1,000 on January 1st and I've increased it roughly £500 per month. Currently 1.9% return in 6 months I guess? (deposits before then were not regular and over a few years).
    Anything I say in no way constitutes financial advice and anything you do is your own decision.

    You could have that money earning 5% (near enough) in Nationwide.

    Worked out winnings over the past 12 months and seem to have got 1.47% interest.

    One of my last £25 wins had the number of my year of birth in it!
    What are the odds on that ?
    That must be a jackpot win next month!
