Same for me - maybe it's a pattern. :rotfl:
£100 on £50k last month, nothing for March.0 -
Pretty nonsensical discussion here.
Your holders number doesn't even go into the draw, so Ernie can't prefer some holders.
Little known fact, the first Ernie was designed by Tommy Flowers, same bloke who designed computer that broke Enigma0 -
£25 on £45k for me. Exactly the same as last month.0

March was the final draw of my financial year and a final win of £100 saw my return for the year at 1.63% on an average holding of £27,666. The 17/18 financial year gave me 1.15% and (from memory) the year before was 1.5%, so overall i’m fairly content and seem to be getting pretty close to the statistically expected return.0

Nothing for me on £7k this month, but wins over the past 7 months put me at 2.1% return so not complaining too much.0

Well £50 this month. Last year managed 12.5% return. 2017 managed 12% return and 2016 11% return. So all is good but would love to win more!Tabatha_Kitten wrote: »Nothing since July last year on £21k. I must be really unlucky

Can't believe that it took you two months to plagiarise:
