Nice to see that someone with a holding of £600 won £100,000. And someone holding £100 won £25,000. By nice I don't mean nice. I mean I'm insanely jealous and really must get out of this dream of my money actually 'earning' much in Bonds. Someone has to pay the price for those wins. And by someone I mean most of us.

EDIT: Make that at least two people with £100 worth of bonds winning £25,000. The odds on those two winning must be infinitesimal!

Unfortunately when you cash them in, it's the oldest ones that go first and almost all my winners have come from the first 10k I bought.

Oldest is the default but if you feel it'll make a difference, you can override that and choose which ones to cash in if you do it by post:

If you ask us to cash in online or by phone, we decide which Premium Bonds and Premium Bond numbers to cash in. We normally cash in your oldest Premium Bonds first. You can only ask which Premium Bonds to cash in by post. Because we issue Premium Bonds in ranges of consecutive numbers, we’ll take the numbers from the end of the range if you’re only cashing in part of a Premium Bond. You can’t choose to cash in specific Premium Bond numbers.

Thank you - the lady on the phone did advise me of that a few days ago when I wanted to withdraw some from another product and had to ring them for an additional security check.  It's just funny that I've had 13 winners and 11 of them are from the first two batches.  I actually have 6 that were bought when I was born and whilst they've never won anything and probably won't, I'd like to keep them for sentimental reasons.  When I added them to my online account, they added two leading 0s to make the numbers the length they are now.
