Nothing here.  Looking forward to the New Year as - due to the other interest rate reductions - I'm moving the mortgage savings from Income Bonds to PB's so will have more bonds in play by January.

This month two millionaires has £50k and £34k of Bonds in play.

oh FFS. They've had a site redesign. They appear to have disallowed the ability to save text entered in fields, so my holders number no longer pops up when I click in the box, which means I need to log in to grab it - just like loads of other people as there's a bloody queue to be allowed to log in. I HATE it when people don't consider the users (I do software dev for a living and I'd be ******* furious with anyone who suggested something like this)

It saves the login details for logging in, but not the holders number on the prize checker page (chrome on windos)

FWIW the mobile app works well. It's only a prize checker though so if you need any more functionality it's back to the web.

Woohoo - I think that's my first ever win (in almost forty years of having a Premium Bonds account).

£25 each for me and my wee daughter's accounts.

Score. Hopefully a sign of the continued good news that today will keep on bringing.

(clicks Refresh on the live US Election reporting page...)

I think Nov and Dec draws remain the same then it goes down?
.
3x£25 here. Only ever won twice before now three all at once 🙂

Huh, despite the checker saying otherwise I seem to have won £25.  Whoop.

I think Nov and Dec draws remain the same then it goes down?

Website says "From the December Prize drawer" - so thats the 5th December?

3 * 25 - could also be the last of the big wins due to NS&I’s reduced prize fund.

:-< The awful luck streak continues - zero since 2017 across two accounts with a decent amount of personal savings. As above with complete 20/20 hindsight wish I'd been braver than the £1k I committed to a shares trust in Feb as that's +30%.

I check on the second of each month via the app. Otherwise, you'll either see some money arrive in your bank or the number of binds increase depending on your selected option.

I think there might be an email later in the month.

Really! Wow. That's a killer blo

I normally win 2
£25 a month minimum with circa 28k in there.
Although this is the 3rd month in a row of zero.
