10k = £0
Only time I have won anything was £25 way back in June 2023. Have I been unlucky?
I could get an extra £50 a month with savings so I'm going to pull the plug today but I have the feeling next month could be my monthno ticket = no prize

Two months in a row without any win on full holding. The performance, full holding throughout, for the last tax year has not been stellar but also not totally terrible. I have bust my PSA, and I’d have needed an account returning at least 4.5% to get the same return in interest. Such accounts were obviously available over the last 12 months but none of them is offering the monthly excitement of may be winning big 😂
Still, it might be time to reconsider whether I want to effectively spend 40 quid or more a month gambling. £40 a month after tax is what I could reasonably have made more in savings accounts. Not interested in gambling more than I already do in investments, and my pension is sorted. I might just simply spend the lot on travel now ✈️🚢🌎🏖️😎0 -
3 x £100 plus £25 on nearly full holding.
This takes me to £3,125 in the last year on approx £47k. Better than I would have got in savings.I’m a Senior Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Pensions, Annuities & Retirement Planning, Loans

My best month this year! £50 on a £40k holding
So far this year I've had two blank months and one at a measly £25, far short of what I'd have earned in interest in an easy access account

£375 family total on 3x full holding. A step down from last month when it was only slightly more than that, but nearly all of it was mine

Nothing again for me, 6 months in a row on £10k holding. Withdrawn it all (£11.1k after topping up last month) & will be putting it in a Virgin Money savings account at 5% interest. Feels rather foolish to stay in PB’s when there’s a positive return to be made elsewhere.This money is put aside to pay for landscaping work in the next 3 years. Maybe once I retire & have £50k of tax free cash with no plan I’ll put the max holding in & see if my luck has changed!0
