Are the results out already - I've been resisting looking due to recent disappointments.

I mustn't check
I mustn't check
I mustn't check

Another dud month for me rolleyes

I suspect that the top prizes are fictitious as the most I've known anyone to win is £500 - this thread also seems to suggest that too.

Likewise, in for 20k, first draw May!

Have to say the website is a complete pain to use, it's like going back 10 years ago. Terrible terrible user experience.
First month, 75 quid!
Nice start!!

Had mine for years - thought a better investment than the Lottery.
Have £3800 worth, get about 2 x £25 per year so wonder if the Lottery might have been better!!
Keep thinking about selling but then there's always the hope that maybe....just maybe......

Just out of interest - can you put £30k into PB for your children?

So a family of 4 could have £120k in PB.

Yes we bought the full £30K for our daughter, if she wins big time she will blow it all on perfume, make-up and other crap teenagers buy.

I found my envelope containing my £50 worth of premium bonds slip the other day.

I wont lie, I felt anticipation on checking the past six months draw and also the unclaimed one for prizes. I even envisaged the car id buy if I won big.

I got zero! May be time to add some more to the pot and enjoy that anticipation monthly as you chaps do!
