      I could earn £3100 shifting it to their 6.2% bond product.  Premium bonds returns this year are just trash.

    Zilch for me on just under £42k. Not a very good run with £75 in last 3 draws.
    Been meaning to take out a chunk for a while but with the odds/prize fund increasing almost monthly I convince myself my luck will change. Plus by the time I think about withdrawing we are half way to the next draw  :|
    Think I would still want to keep in half my stake to give myself a good probability of winning something & treat it as an emergency fund...
  • I had max holding for the last year and winnings weren't good, so after August draw, when I won nothing, I withdrew £15k to put in a 2 year bond fixed at 6.2%. This left me with £35k for this draw and I won £225, my best win 😊

    £200 for me on circa £48k, £125 for OH on full

    My good luck continues I need top up my year, but last six draws have been £1,325 and the one before that was £300.

    1x £100 for me on just over £8k holding.  Impressively it came on a £50 bond I had won in July and re-invested.
