Savings Account or Premium Bonds?

Hi. Does anyone know why it should tell me I haven’t won, then three days later I get a email to say I’ve won £25 ? This has happened July and August.

I won £50 this month. I don’t put my winnings back into Premium Bonds but spend it on something specific.

Katyj some months its 3or4 days before the results are announced so if you checked to early it would say nothing.
I won 2x£25 same as last month well pleased.

Too early ?

Oh thank you. I always thought they were announced on the 2nd of every month ?‍?

I bought premium bonds when they first came out.only a £1 and £2 then.but never won a penny.so had them about 60 years
I can't believe they have never come up.but shows how hard it is to win.worse than the lottery
I have c hanged addresses and notified them but nothing.
Couldn't afford to invest what I am seeing on here

Or alternatively -pay the gas/leccy bill. ???

Chestnut if you are savvy you could make a few £££ by eg if you can, open several accounts online. Most will tell you if you save eg £150 a month for a year you will earn 2.5% or more, Yorkshire BS. Some are offering 4.5% for a year but it is usually a smallish amount like a couple of thousand. If you could keep your eye on your dosh, ie multiple small accounts you could have fun.

I do not have the full amount of premium bonds but I win most months and this month £100. I plough it back in to buy more.
