2 x £25 on maximum holdings. I've got something every month for the last six months equalling £225. If the next six months goes like that then it'll be okay. Could do with a nice big win though.0

After 3 months of zilch on £40K got my biggest return & most winning bonds 4x£25 since holding.Happy with that but overall works out at an average of £25 for each of last 4 months so swings & roundabouts as would be expected.0

Yep! everything correct and as it should beonthebench said:
If you still have a £20k holding then the chances of that happening are hundreds of thousands to one against. It is far more likely that there is a problem with your details. Have you double checked your bond record and the bank/contact details they have on file for you?mummytummy said:Yet a yet another month with nothing since May 2020 :'(
First month with the max for me and my wife. Nothing for me, 2 x £25 for her (and nothing for my daughter on her £200 she has had for a few years!)
maybe next month 
Lovely win for your wife though

£75 on 50k for me, 1x£50 & 1 x £25, been in 14 draws now and still achieving 1.94%. as its money we’ll need at the end of this year it’s better than it’d achieve elsewhere and a bit of fun at the start of every month.0
