For April I got £75, which brings my total for 2022 so far to £200. Pretty good for a £25,500 holding.
Even if I win nothing for the rest of 2022 I will still have done better than what I got in 2021.0 -
£25 on full holding for April draw.
£300 on full holding August 2021 to April 2022
£175 on an average £15000 holding February 2021 to July 2021
Happy enough with that0 -
£25 on max holding and £150 over the last 7 months. The novelty of PB's is starting to wear off.
Year 1 I won £650
Year 2 I won £425
I'll be amazed if I get to £300 this year.Make £2023 in 2023 (#36) £3479.30/£2023

I have grown disillusioned with Premium Bonds, especially now interest rates elsewhere are on the rise, so next month will be my first for a year without full holding. See what difference it makes, if any.1

Nothing for 2nd month running on £50k, make £375 for year or 0.75% as I would be paying tax on ant extra interest it's not so bad .75% is 0.9375% taxed at 20%.I hoped NS&I would have increased the amount of winnings with the base rate increase.0

No win on full holding, for the 4th consecutive month. My return in the past 12 months is 0.5%.1

I had £250 for years and never won a sausage!
But I maxed out my PB's in Jan this year, and won £150 last month.
