    Nothing again for me, 6 months in a row on £10k holding. Withdrawn it all (£11.1k after topping up last month)
    You made the right decision. £10K is too little to be stuck in PBs when it could be getting better elsewhere.

    I’ve won more on the Lottery than premium bonds in those 6 months!

    What an awful website. Four times I have logged in four times an error has occurred and have been logged out.

    Never let the perfume of the premium overpower the odour of the risk
