    Just £25 this month   ;)
    You do like volatility ;)! My volatility isn't quite so high - £125 this month vs £850 last month.

    I've just removed £8,000 (of £10,000) as I've won nothing in the last 6 or 7 draws and I can guarantee getting at least 4% elsewhere, so that's what I'm doing.  I think I've won £100 in the last year from £10,000.
    They keep saying they are increasing winnings, but I don't think the chance of winning is going up, so that doesn't really help to win anything.

    The chance of winning is going up form Augusts draw. Instead of 24000/1 its 22000/1

    Seems a lot quieter on here than normal. Maybe lots of people did withdraw their money after all.

    Nothing for me again this month on full holding. Even I'm considering putting my money elsewhere.

    £50 on £40,000, a bit disappointing after £225 in May and £250 in June.
    😳 your brain has come to expect a higher prize unfortunately but May and June were amazing! I have full amount this time and got £75 and I had £38k before that and got £0, £25 and £50 for the last three months so just compare yourself to me and you won’t feel so disappointed 😂

    £100 on max holding. £550 for the ytd. 
  • 1x £50 this month on £44k holding, makes a total of £625 YTD.
