[Finance] Premium Bonds - prize pool increased again - you ever have any luck?

[Conkers]

I appreciate this will be seen as a question only a millennial or whatever I am would ask........but as someone who doesn't have bonds (and just did 1 min of googling about it), am i right there isn't an APP for it, like you'd view your online banking?

You have to LOG IN ON A WEBSITE?

There is an app. NS&I Prize Checker

AMAZING NEWS, I’ve not won since February, although I’m not sure if I’m particularly bothered. I see it as a small amount of savings / raffle, with a chance of a small wins that add up to what you’d get in a savings account, with the outside chance that you might WIN THE JACKPOT!!!!!

 

[Ding Dong !]

I like to see the winners list published.

I see someone with a holding of £40 won £5,000 from a bond bought in 1961

Just checked my account as I had an email from NS&I and I won £50 in the july draw... ah well, better than nothing.

 

[Clive Walker]

£0 won in July. 2.5k invested. Not won a bean in 2 years.

£0 won in aug. 2.6k invested. Not won a bean in 2 years +

 

[GT49er]

Won fifty quid - in 1973. Not a brass farthing since then.

 

[dazzer6666]

3 x 25, 1 x 50 between us.

 

[Springal]

My son got a bunch when he was born, in all honesty I’d rather cash them in and stick them in a stocks & shares ISA or something as he’s won nothing

Wife got £25. I got a £50 and 4x£100.

 

[Questions]

My old mum bought me a premium bond for a quid around 1970……. It started with 4DT…
Is there a list of unclaimed prizes for the last 40/50 years.

 

[Petunia]

Happy with that

The NSI prizechecker app shows whether you’ve won anything- usually the second working day of the month.

 

[Beach Hut]

£75 between us, very low month

 

[Si Gull]

Cashed in more than half of our holding a couple of weeks ago as rather get a guaranteed 6%pa in a 1yr bond. Surprisingly, won as much this month than previously - that's probability for you! Hopefully random enough for a big win one day

 

[Nicks]

£250.00 this month

I won 100k with a 1973 bond my nan bought me as a kid. I doubt i had more than a couple of hundred quids worth.

 

[juliant]

£375 this month. Stunned at that compared to previous years its definitely working better for us with the way they have changed the draws.

 

[Mustafa II]

1x £50 prize for me this month.

Pleased with that as I have a relatively small holding.

Definitely beating even the very best savings accounts this year.
