    Good question, (it was a £100k prize win btw).  Only scenario I can think of is; the May draw is actually performed at the backend of April. If NS&I also do the auto reinvest in April then that would explain the Purchase Date of April and the number was allocated after you OH's auto reinvest 578Q numbers.   
    I would assume the 579Q number you manually purchased in May was a higher number than the £100k winning 579Q number?


    It's  before QF.  I've downloaded the numbers from the June draw and did a search.  The whole range of letters in 579 have come out down to Z as well as 580 up to CH. 

    Adding to this in May I purchased bonds starting 580A.. So surprised when I downloaded June numbers to see bonds starting 580A..B..C had won which shouldn't be eligible until July (unless they were reinvested numbers).  

    I wonder if it's due to a second draw caused by ineligible bonds?  None of it makes sense.

    Time for this thread's monthly resurrection.
    I haven't trawled the full list of big winners, but am confident I've not won a very big one. 
    Both million pound prizes this month go to people with full holdings

    Last month was my last full holding month - I withdrew most for a house purchase - I have £10k left and managed a £50 prize this month - more than I was expecting.

    My largest ever win - a single £500. Full holding. More than March, April, May, and June, put together.

    "Sorry, no luck this time".  Fully expected, as I've had a good run recently.   Need to work out what that does to my running rate . . . was a smidge over 7%, dropped to 5.6%.  Still well above my 'I'll keep hold of them' level.
