Premium Bonds - Not a bean for months now!!!!

[johnpsanderson]

Kicking myself for not sorting sooner this month but went to pay some more into PBs last night (in order to catch the May draw) and found the login/text so delayed it was impossible to actually login…

Ho hum, first world problem I suppose.

I don't think you'd have made the cutoff anyway. I paid in on Friday and the transaction date was showing as 2nd April. I had meant to do it on Thursday as the last working day because I wasn't sure which was the cutoff and wanted to be safe, but Thursday was a busy day and I forgot.

I also paid money in on Friday.
Hoping for it to count for May's payout.

I need to hold some more cash - can I treat my son’s name just as an extension to mine? I.e no entry / withdrawals limits? Basically just like having another account?

[CrippsCorner]

Are they drawing today, or tomorrow?

Yes - you can get it to pay out to your account too etc. I think it's in trust under you until 16 but I'd read up to to make sure.

I think you'll be lucky with the BH weekend - you really need to allow 5 working days to be safe.

They did the draw about two weeks ago.

Results published in the app on Weds and probably online now/tonight for the big winners.

Thanks, just checked and the ones I bought on Friday are in the May draw, so that's handy.

Would not have thought its today but the draw dates are published somewhere if you Google it

[LivLL]

Just checked the app and it says next results 3rd April

[Alickadoo]

Outer London and the Highlands and Islands for a millyun pounds.

If you don't live there you are not a big winner.

Note.
Even if you do live there, you probably haven't won a million.
