4 x £25 for me on max holding. Hoping to avoid a blank next month to stretch the "winning" run to 24 months.

I have a maximum holding and what I find is that whenever I win more than one prize in the month around 60% of the time the winning bonds come from the same batch I purchased. I accumulated the bonds over a number of years with the biggest batch being around £7000. I find this does not follow the assertion that every bond is entered into the draw individually so has has equal chance of winning. It is a large coincidence that when I do win most are all invariably out of the same batch. It would be interesting to know if other winners have found when they have won a number of prizes some have come out of the same batch.

6 months of max holding and I had 4 x £25 this month. Total in last 6 months is £375 not sure what interest this would quite equate too? 

£375 for six months would be £750 annualised which is 1.5%

Well done to everyone that has though 😊

I'd prefer to see the second £1 million prize abolished and the money used to create a lot more £100 winners.   At least then more of the bond holding population would feel they were getting something for their money.   However I doubt NS&I would do that - it would involve them in a lot more administration every month and they'd probably require more staff to do it !   

Do what  I did, Go onto their facebook page and lodge a complaint. It realy is a daft approach to getting more investors on board by reducing the number of prizes like this. I agree that one of the £1 Mil prizes should be axed when interest rates go down and increase the number of small prizes.

I don't "do" social media - a deliberate decision on my part seeing how its becoming increasingly intrusive of people's' privacy, often without them realising.  Is there anywhere on he actual NS&I website where one can provide feedback?.  I confess I haven,t searched yet.

Is this not social media?
