or do it online and it takes 3 days. I tested it the other day with £1 just out of interest, really fast.

Yep, withdrawals are within a working week in my experience even large ones.

That's my experience too. Online is a pain to set up but works very quickly once done. Actually, it's quite impressive!

My account tells me I have to buy £100 min?

When you do buy some though, it sends you a new replacement certificate so you don't end up with loads of them.

I think online is a far tidier way to do it. It homogenises the 'bonds' and treats them all as one lump sum, which is far easier to manage and understand.

I've only 10 bonds, but have had them for 30 years, and nothing at all.

First month the new upper limit will be active so a lot more cash in the system.

Only £25 for me.

1st win this year for me (£3,400 holding).

Now it's not a big prize (I've checked those up to the value of 5k). What's the chances it's £25, as opposed to something meaningful? 99%+? (Need to reset / request password)
