All bit of a damp squid for me. An 8k punt 6 months ago but no wins at all. The thing is if I put it into Income Bonds I would be getting £15 a month interest. So it has cost me £90 already. I'll give it the full year then move it elsewhere. I think that is enough chances.0

£675 on full... wow, that my biggest monthly - but follows 2 poor months (IIRC £100 ea).
500+100+50+254 -
Only £75 on full holding
I know some will have “won” nothing but I’m still disappointed as this has been a run of bad luck. Though this is the first month it’s been full holding but it was still almost £40k before and I’ve been getting £25 or £50 or nothing for most of this year.0 -

£1250 for the rolling year - so I make that a 2.5% return... Marginally higher than my rolling return last month, worse than an instant access saver - but I'm here for the short-term chance rather than than the long term, as it won't be long before the money goes into a house purchase.0 -
I have £325 this month on £22k holding. 3 x £100, 1 x £25.
I've definitely done better since they increased the prize ratios - that's 6 x £100s since December. I think I'm running at around 4.5% on a rolling year - but my balance has fluctuated, so hard to be precise.0 -
£0 on full holding this month, not a good start to my second year.1
