    First month with a reasonable sized investment back in the draw for me for a few months so hopeful of something this time. Not on the "big list" though. One lucky person with £1,510 in bonds has scooped £100,000 this month.
    And at the other end of the scale, someone in Surrey who invested the full £50k in March has seen a 50% return on investment in their very first draw...

    Would those that are lucky enough for their prizes to be announced today, be told prior to it being published that they'd won?

    Noticed there was a £5k win in Kent on a £50k holding with a £7k bond value bought in Mar-15.  Living in Kent with a £50k holding and a £7k block bought in 2015 I got excited, unfortunately I bought mine in Aug-15. :(

    Full results are not out yet, just the High Value Winners list.

    I think only the £1m prize winners are told in person prior to publication. AFAIK all other "big prize" winners only find out when the results are published, which is usually the day before the full prize list goes onto the prize checker app.

    No big prizes for me (as expected!) so let's wait until tomorrow to see if I got lucky with any smaller prizes.
    Btw, are bond numbers ever re-used when sold and allocated to a new account?

    No, never re-used.

    My brother's latest bonds bought last month began 442, so it'll be a while until they hit 999 - maybe in 50 years!
