  • 1 x £100 & 1x £50 this month.
    For the year, I have 33 wins which equals £2,050, a return of 4.01%. Best year ever for me on each metric, but given NS&I increased the return target this year not a surprise I suppose.  

    Currently on a 13 month winning streak, (although my best is 27 months).
    My monthly results for the year:

    One lucky person has won £10k from a £2.00 bond bought in 1956.  There's always hope! 
    And me....I've got 2 bought for me in 1957 from my godmother when I was a few months old 😃
  • Full holding

    1 X 50
    1 X 100
    1 X 500

    Only 1 blank month (Feb) for the year and a 2023 total of £2150 equalling 4.30% so overall that's pretty average, but becomes a lot better not having had to pay 40% tax on it !

    I'm so disappointed with my PB full holding returns that even the average ones posted on here look impressive

    My wife has won 1x £150. £42k holding.  Her last 8 wins since July have all came from the same batch of £30k bonds. Seems a bit strange if it is all random, I know it has been discussed before about randomness so I am not mentioning for a huge discussion.

    I also won £150 from full holding.

  • I think i might get back in with premium bonds....again. £500 invested a month which will also help me get my Halifax £5.
    Someone sort of said - A payment of a £500 begins with a single investment.
