Bad luck. It will be your turn next time.

£50 on a full holding. Which brings me up to £175 after 4 months. Return of 1.05% at this rate.

What happens to a win if you had the maximum amount of 50k in please?

I assume you're asking the question because you have selected the option to reinvest winnings? The answer is bound to be that they pay out the winnings direct to you just as if you hadn't selected that option.

Spot on, it goes directly into your linked bank account about 5 working days later.

Give me your crystal ball, please. 2 x £25 this month, full holding etc. I would imagine we are neck & neck for this Tax year.

1 x £25 for me, Mrs won £75. Both on full holding.

"1 x £25 for me, Mrs won £75. Both on full holding."

Only just checked, you are well ahead this Tax year (I'm at £250).

A lot can happen in 2 months. I expect you will catch up.

2 x £25 on full holding. Returns this year better than my 0.2% ISA.

2 x £25 for me on a full holding.

nowt for mrs didds on 43K

The "you've just won!" e-mails for Premium Bond prizes have improved (or aren't as slow as they were)

1. this month's e-mail appeared on the second working day (it's usually third working day)
2. the e-mail arrived within one hour of being sent
3. two separate Premium Bond accounts both had prizes and both e-mails were sent at the same time and received at the same time.

I'm not unwise enough to think that service at NS&I is improving (& tempt fate) (or naive enough to think that they read this forum/thread), but you never know!
I noticed that the website checker for Feb draw was also online late on Mon evening (1 Feb)

Yes, that's typically available around 11.45pm on the first working day of the month. Sometimes a little later.

The Android app usually gives its results about the same time, but this month reported a problem and asked you to try later. It was working ok when I tried it yesterday morning though.

(I haven't noticed whether emails have changed recently, that's "old news" for me so I don't pay much attention to them.)

Scott.

Bizarrely, when I log on to NS&I prize checker, my computer doesn't ask me if I want it to remember my holder's no. which came up automatically on the old site, though it does with other new passwords on other sites. Can anyone please tell me how I can get it stored so I don't have to look it up each month?
