    Are all wins over the £5k and upwards informed the day before ?
    Officially yes, however individual results are normally available around 23:30 on the same day.

    Just checked my account, they money's in! :)
    Nice one.  :):smiley:

    Gosh....that went into your account quickly.  Well done😃

    Thanks, still no email and the app still says check tmrw but my account shows it has been reinvested.

    Looks like I am owed a few then as I have only ever won 1 £500 prize in 134 months :(
    A year ago, and for some time before that, rates were so low that you'd have expected to win a £500 prize once in 23 years and £1000 once in a century with full holding, so you've actually done pretty well.

    I've only ever had one £100 win, never anything better.

    I received a letter from NS&I today - dated 9th November, 2022

    I'm still waiting payments requested on the 4th January, 2023.

    Anyone else having these problems?

    NS&I do seem to have an odd way of handling paperwork - it never quite seems to make sense. I've had issues recently with opening a guaranteed income bond and just now with an estate account I'm trying to finalise.  They never seem to explain what's happening or what to expect.

    Huh! Don't get me going on managing estates!  I sent NS&I a notification, including an original Death Certificate of my wife's death, last Autumn.  They locked her accounts - including joint accounts.
    These joint accounts currently pay me no interest.  So, what happened to the principle of Survivorship?
    Yet another NS&I omni-shambles

    Yes, they are a complete bunch of clowns. If they didn't have the £85K+ protection I'd be out of there like a shot.
