    £25 each month from January 2018 to June 2018 and today I managed £50 based on overall £29k holding.

    I wouldn't exactly call these 'wins'.

    They're obviously not the major prizes but the odds are heavily stacked against winning any of those so your return is pretty much spot on the (median) average for that size of holding over that period of time, so that then begs the question of what did you expect to get?

    I'd had a good run up until last month this year, will see what the interest rate rise does over the coming weeks (assuming it goes up!)
