Premium Bond Winner ?

the more I read the returns the more I think perhaps it’s just not worth it, especially with the rise in easy access saver interest rates?!

I would certainly say that nobody should bother with PB’s unless you buy about 20k worth at the least

otherwise it’s probably better sticking with an easy access account

I was lucky this month.  2 x £25 on £8525.  But with interest rates rising I have pulled them & will stick in Chase.

My First month in the draw, and first post on the forums after years of lurking.

Looks like I got really lucky with 4x25 on a full holding.

How long does it usually take ns&i to pay out your winnings?

Normally 3-5 days if paid to your linked account, a couple of weeks by post

It's usually the 8th barring weekends and public holidays

It is - I make it a 1/5 chance from Martin's odds calculator

I’ve taken my full holding out
my wife also has the full amount going to keep this but only £25 in July 
seems a waste of time but at least it’s non taxable
