Looking at July's draw of £1000+ prizes (its the info NS&I publish that include bond value and holdings value). Of the 17606 prizes, when looking at total holdings, 8664 (49.2%) of the winners held £49,900-£50k, compared to just 158 went to those with a total holdings of £9900-£10K. Sure anyone with full holding are likely on average to win 5 times as many prizes as someone with £10K, but it seems to indicate that a lot of people with full holdings.0 -

If I don’t get like £300 in this months draw I think I’m going to have to get some money out!
I’ve got £50k in and have been getting less than £100 a month for a few months, sometimes nothing though some of these months I had £30 something k in so not full amount. But I see other people on here say for example that they only got £50 last month and they have been getting in the £200s for months and they don’t have the full amount in and that makes me feel a bit rubbish. I know I should have money in an ISA and am falling victim to the luck aspect of premium bonds.I don’t have any money in an ISA so should put money in that but I just worry about the notice period/penalty to get money out for fixed term ISAs as I’m not sure if I’m going to sell my place/buy a better place so my finances aren’t that predictable.
Well I hope we are all lucky this month!1
