Edit: 24,500 correction, not 24,000!

I think you were right the first time - unless I'm misunderstanding, which I do a lot. NS&I website says the odds are 24,000 to 1. It was 24,500 before last June and 34,500 before that - no wonder I never won anything! I rather wish they'd shorten the odds instead of giving out more of the bigger prizes if rates go up again [fingers crossed] as winning nothing is horrible, as I was reminded yesterday.

Yes, you're right, I was right the first time!  I did notice a bit later on but decided not to rewrite the post, especially when it had already triggered some animated responses, since deleted....

My wife and I each had the full amount in PBs and have gradually been withdrawing to pay for a house renovation. Took the last £6000 out of my wife’s account this month but waited until after the draw date. 

Glad we did as I checked the app this afternoon. 

Two prizes. 

Prize 1 of 2: £25. 

Prize 2 of 2: £5,000. 

Well done! Hopefully can pay for some more renovation stuff or new bits of furniture 😎
