Great, nice to hear from somebody who has had a win. I was so disgusted with the little interest I was getting on a small amount (for a rainy day) I have in the Building Society I took some out and bought Premium Bonds, young Lorna decided to take £200 out of Grandson Joshua's savings and put that in to Prem Bonds. He is disgusted that we have held these particular bonds for over a year and he hasn't had a win!! He will learn :)

Wow good for you, yes it is nice to hear some one does win. 25 quid is nice...
We have Premium bonds from when they first came out, relatives in UK sent some to Karen our Daughter when she was born. 42 she is now, not a sausage....

Good for you, enjoy... qahtan

Well done, it's more than I've ever won, namely nothing!
Incredibly there are some 599,000 prizes worth over £35 million unclaimed!

Do they contact you when you've won, or do you have to keep checking? (A question asked, obviously, by someone who's never won with a Bond :()

Jim I've only got £100 worth!

Hyacinth they write to you.

The reason for most of the unclaimed prizes is that people have moved and not informed them of their new address.
