Prize details are available on line today if anyone interested. Hubby and I have both won this month, small amount, but nice.

I've just been googling and it seems the chance of any individual bond winning has reduced over the last few months from 1 in 34,500 to 1 in 24,000. Still big odds to beat but a great improvement. I wonder if that is why some of us are having a bit more success? Of course we'll probably now have months without so much as a sniff of a prize grin

I think that this means the chances of winning have improved!

I thought that's what I'd indicated? But I can see the word reduced might be taken the other way. Whatever, you now have a 1 in 24,000 chance of a win as opposed to the 1 in 34,500 chance it was about 4 months or so ago.

Which is probably why I have had my run of winning small prizes. I was thinking my luck had changed after a very long dry spell, but maybe not.

Either way, it's good news - I could certainly do with winning grin.

I won £25 which will just add to my bonds. I always leave whatever I win in my account so it steadily increases. Only had them 2 years and won 4 times so far. Well chuffed as I've less than 2K in bonds.
