A generous reward for your patience then. Always nice to read about other people's days starting so cheerfully. That will pay for your Coronation fizz then !

Nothing on max holding. I've had terrible returns since they upped the prizes in November. Two blank months so far this year. 0.68% return since October for me. Pathetic!

Well, that's my 5th month in a row with no win, with a max holding.

I'm starting to think my numbers aren't in the draw any more. I think I'm going to withdraw it all, miss a month and buy back a new block of numbers.

According to the MSE premium bond probability calculator, only 100% of people have won more than me.

Wow, and I thought I was having bad luck. Hope you get a win soon. At least you are guarrenteed 2.85% for a month while you wait in their Direct Saver

Withdraw half after the next draw, leave £25k in there so you don't miss a month(which could be a winning month), put the £25k back in towards the end of the month. 25000 fresh bonds may be way to go.. That's what I would do.

Good luck the Goon.

£150 for the wife and £100 for me, both on max holdings

Thanks, that sounds like a decent plan. I think I've got to change something.

Good luck, hope it work's out well. I know that if I went 5 months without a win, with max holding, I would feel totally peed off, so I don't blame you…then again, you might win big the next draw and think differently. Either way, good luck.

I ain't had any emails yet to say I have winnings this month, but because of the Bank Holiday, I will give it until Friday before I tick it off as a losing month.
