    Two Premium Bonds holders from Kent and Hampshire & Isle of Wight are celebrating an unforgettable August after each winning the £1 million Premium Bonds jackpot. 
    Should be a spoiler alert 🥸

    £125 for me £225 for MrsR7L both on Max and £50 for daughter on around half.

    £25 for father in law, whilst he keeps winning, his return this year has been very poor.

    No - it takes about 5-7 days for the prize to appear in your linked account.

    Ah - sorry I missed your point. Any prize you win will be noted in your Premium Bond account on the next working day after the 1st of the month. The actual funds appear in your linked account after the 5-7 days.

    £100 on 22k
    That's  £200 in total this year,  so I need a few more returns in the last 4 months ideally.

    You can download the price checker app to your phone. Add your bond holder number (and anyone else) and you can see prizes.

    Interestingly there's an investment prospectus ('deck' in US speak) going around for a South East London championship football club.  Don't think it specifies an expected ROI.  I'll update this when I find out what the minimum buy-in is.

    Unless the Orange one opens his mouth or inflicts more trade deals on the world then I think only a small handful of the above will be anywhere close to the finishing level on 31st Dec. And that takes into account the Index virtually flatlining this week when the rest of the markets are up 3%.

    Strange comment. When your prediction is about half way in the predictions. Hedging your bets?

    No, just made my prediction too soon. If I had left it to the 31st I would have gone for something around 11000-11100
