    2 x £25 on £50k holding.

    Massive success like that has probably put the evil eye on my ticket for tonight's Euromillions draw.

    I rarely buy a lottery ticket but thought that I'd have a go given the current huge prize fund.

    For the first time in about 7 years, 1 x £25. What an incredible return, ha.


    Used to have them paid by cheque but checked my account and it said that it'll be paid into my bank, which is fine but I want to auto reinvest any prizes. I logged in this morning to change the preference but I do not know how long it is before the change takes effect - does anyone know? Or for those who get prizes paid into their account, how long from the results date does it take to be paid?

    I don't know for sure, but my reinvestments are always dated in the first few days of the month, so I'd suspect the processing run has already been completed and you are already too late for this month.

    Oh well, no biggie it is only £25 so I will just reinvest it myself if needs be. Will see what happens.


    Thanks
