Think I'll be withdrawing and putting 20k in ISA anyway.
I think I'm going to do this too. Happy with my returns but want to front load the ISA and any surplus each month can go back into PB rather than slowly drip feeding ISA.

1 x £100 & 1 x £25 totalling £125 for the April draw. Not really that good and no better than the ISA which produced £1700 on 40K. One of these months I might get something decent, if I live long enough.laugh

£75. 1x £25 and 1x £50. Last month was £100. That's OK. Nice to win something for a change

Its been a thing on PBs for a while. Its only really the first day of the new prizes. It used to be worse than it is now.

£50 on about 8k. First I've won in months. First ever £50 win.

Happy with that.

Much better, £225 on ~£42k.

Since having the ~£42k in PB’s again from the start of the year that’s £50, £0, £75, £225. Not brilliant.

One more draw and then it’s being withdrawn to pay off the mortgage!

£175 this month on max holdings.

Once again, my brother has won more on max holdings with £600. It's a running joke in the family how he wins more every month, but the gloating texts are becoming a regular dread.

Not great for us this month again, £50 & £25
We put £45k each in a year ago and they have now had 12 draws.
£90k after the 12 draws is £93,400, 3.77% tax free approximately.

That's some ISA, I presume it's a stocks and shares ISA rather than cash ISA to produce 4.25% in a month.

£150 on 26k for me, annualised works out at 6.9%.

I need to make a spreadsheet to calculate a rolling 12 month return figure.

Nowt on £5.5k, but that's probably fair after four months on the bounce.

Same here. The main NS&I app always seems to be ahead of the prize winner app.
It's true for reinvestment of winnings. I checked about 30 minutes before midnight:

Is it possible for me to add my mum's PB details to my app, so I can see her wins as well as mine? She still gets cheques delivered I believe! So has to wait ages to find out what she's got... I have mentioned sorting it out digitally for her, but she doesn't seem that interested, however I am lol.

Yes, you should be able to add her to the prize checker app.
