No big wins yet, but there are very small wins most months that keep my interest going Reviewed on: 9th October 2023

Never won

1
I am nearly 55 x years old and have never won and neither has my sister. These were bought when we were born. Although I agree it is a small amount, it was however a gift amount back in the day. Very disappointed to say the least. The login system is difficult to navigate and I have made 2 x phone calls now to try and sort, there is a further mail shot coming out to me shortly. Not sure I will bother, seems pointless. Reviewed on: 4th October 2023

Easy to use, safe, simple

Really easy to use, change your mind, simple to understand. Recommended. The newer premium bonds platform is so much easier than it ever used to be. In conjunction with other savings mechanisms, this is a really nice ability to diversify your chances of your return. Reviewed on: 31st July 2023

Forever hopeful of a good win

5
I get regular wins, albeit fairly small, but always look forward to seeing results at the beginning of each month. I’m satisfied that my money is in safe hands and am encouraged to invest more to stand a better chance of winning a decent prize. Reviewed on: 21st July 2023

Refusing to release deceased mother's funds

1
Refusing to release my deceased mother's funds without Grant of Probate. No other institution I've dealt with has required probate. So my father who needs these funds to pay for residential care has the stress and expense of applying for probate. Legally they have a discretion whether to require probate and it is really mean requiring it here. Reviewed on: 14th July 2023
