Premium Bond Winner ?

Nothing on a £32k holding.

Nothing on £22k
only £25 since buying November last year, hoping for a bit more luck next time as just bought up to the maximum.0 -
£25 on full holding.
Does anybody keep a record of their winning numbers and find the same bond has won more than once?
I do check my winners for this out of curiosity but guess the chances of it happening are pretty miniscule. None of my single £1 purchases bought back in the days of my youth have ever won anything. I could really throw these early paper purchases away but keep them for sentimental value to remind me how everything changes over the years! We used to have an Ernie syndicate at work for several years . None of my entries there has ever won anything either.
Having the maximum holding for 4 years and never winning anything seems very unlucky.0 -
2x£25 on 18k.Will have a bit more in the next draw and hoping for the same if not more luck😅0

Another £50 this month. That's 6 months I've been in the draw and I've made over 3%. More than 6% annualised.
My wife hasn't been as lucky, but she had £100 this month, which is the same as last month.0 -
1 x £50 + 1 x £25; max holding 2 years & first time any single prize other than £25.0

Yes, and going back to 1985 never had one win twice.Primrose said:Does anybody keep a record of their winning numbers and find the same bond has won more than once?Current odds are 34500 to 1 for each bond, so under those odds the same bond should win once every 2875 years.Previous odds were shorter but even then would expect it to be about once in a thousand years or so at most.0
