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

[Athlon]

£100 this month. 2.4% made over 12 months, not great but not terrible.

[RammyMP]

My 2 kids have done ok this month, eldest won £100, junior won £150. Both have £12k. Best month yet I think.

[Alex Z]

£275 on £42k this month which makes up for the last one.

When using the option of having winnings paid in to nominated account. How long does this normally take from draw date ?

I checked this week as that’s how my wins will come now. On the NS&I site it said up to 7 working days after the draw.

[gsxrblue]

Only had ours for 4 draws and today got a text saying we've won £125. That's £175 in total from £20k.

Cant complain but maybe next time it will be the big one

[peter tdci]

£375 for me on the full investment.

Second best monthly win (vs £400) and means a rate of 3.6% for the last 12 months.

[Essarell]

£300 on £26k and £50 £19k, a last flutter as we’re cashing in every month to pay for building works.

That's a pretty lucky family, especially daddy!

[Legend83]

£250 on £50k which is pretty comparable with interest rates on savings accounts. Just a shame it doesn't happen every month!

[Tim Cognito]

£100 this month on 9k. Those backhanders to Ernie are paying off.

Also take into account interest from non-ISA accounts need to be added to your gross income for calculating Child Benefit repayments if earning over ~£50k gross (gross salary and interest could also put you into the band of needing to pay some back if you think you’ve stayed under the £50k limit from salary alone!).
Premium bond winnings don’t need to be included in this calculation as it’s not classed as interest.

I understand this. Did i mention Im a band 6 NHS nurse. I am way off the 50k salary.

Strangely, some of my winnings have arrived in my bank account, but not others.
I had prizes of £500, £100 and £25 - all showing in my NS&I account online.

The £100 and £25 were paid yesterday. No sign of the £500 though... Does £500 count as 'high value' aand therefore come in a different process perhaps?

Not sure as 1st time I've had winnings paid out instead of re-invest and highest was £100. I'm sure someone else here will be able to confirm that.

£500 this month - most I have won since starting in 2016!
