    Nothing on 20K
  • we hold 11k total between the two of us, only had it for about 6 months and won £75 already. 
  • For all the people who won nothing you might want to check again, I checked it last night and it said I won nothing but I just it again and it said I won £50!
  • 4x£25 on maximum holding this month. That makes my YTD return 2.04% AER.

    They don't show this month's winnings on the first, chances are you were looking at last months winnings yesterday

    I checked at one in the morning night last and it said I won nothing but I won £25 last month

  • I have several hundred old Premium Bonds (1980's), each value of £1, £10, should I cash them in and buy one block of £10000 new issue to increase my chance of winning

    I got 1 x £100, OH got nothing this time, both full holdings.  Between us we've had 1.325% yield this year. Last year was over 1.875% - hard to calculate exactly as I didn't have a full holding for the full year. OH struck lucky with a £500 win which helped him achieve 2.3%

    Doesn't work like that. Each and every bond has exactly the same chance. The only thing you'll achieve by cashing in is losing the chance of the value of those bonds winning anything for a month.
