    £75 (£25 + £50) on max holding this month. One bond purchased 20 years ago, the other almost 30 years ago. Return this year 1.6%. Not too bad as interest rate was much lower for the first part of the year - but the wins I get seem to have generally gone down as the interest rate has risen! 
  • £50 x 2, plus £100 on a £45k. holding.    (£400 prizes in year to date, which is £25 shy of my prize total for the whole of 2022)

    3 x £100 for me on 42k ish this month
    £25 for OH on around £36k

    Ive not been able to top mine up to full holding the last few weeks so I'm hoping the draw will mean I can do this tomorrow. It keeps saying I'm full but I only have 46k 🤔
