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

[Mr Whippy]

Jan - £50 on £96k (2 x £25)
Feb - £150 on £96k (4 x £25 + 1 x £50)
Mar - £625 on £96k (5 x £25 + 1 x £500)

We’re happy, got a “years worth” of winnings with no tax exposure with 9 months to run.

Just somewhere safe to put house money for the short term so still only 6% behind the house price rises from this year

[doogle83]

If my first 3 months replicate for the rest of the year i'll be getting 0.33% which is pretty rubbish... So I have taken a lump out to make use of my ISA allowance instead.

I enjoyed this game last year, not at all since the rate has dropped!

Edit: Damn, Mr Whippy took all my winnings it would appear on a similar investment.

Nothing for me either, again.

[stevensdrs]

I have the usual 2 x £25 for this month, yet again! That just about keeps me on track for a 1% return for the year.

[vixen1700]

£50 on £100k.

[AyBee]

After 2 months of nothing, just the £25 for me this month, on £50k

[2 GKC]

3 * £25 for me on £50k

Nothing on the wife’s £16k

All getting spent soon, I’ll miss the monthly disappointment

On £7.5k put in Jan 2021

Feb 2021 - £0
March 2021 - £50


I feel that’s a decent win on ‘just’ £7.5k in month 2 of it ever invested compared to other users comments!

If you put that 7.5k in in January then you wouldn't have even been in the Feb draw so your result is even better.

Second draw with the max for me,
Feb 3x25
March 2x25

[worsy]

Month 5 and the first draw with no win. Beginner's luck now run out

[2fast748]

Nowt on my £4K, parents £25 on £19K

[lauda]

2x £25 on just over £17k. Also had £25 last month so am at a giddy 0.44% return so far for this year. Not too bad, all things considered.

[Ahonen]

Nothing on £30k. Awesome.

£50 on £100k.

It's rather depressing and really is a sign of the times of how knackered our economy is.

If you said to someone to take your £100k and do something with it and generate £50 after 1 month, you'd be seriously questioning what potential there is out there in the economy, or how incompetent the person you lent the money to is.

Not a good sign.
