    I've never won anything on my premium bonds.
    Come to think about it I don't think I even know anyone who won anything with them.

    You're the first Dedworth!!!! Congratulations Sir!!!

    My June fag money has already gone. The missus wanted a new phone.

    I've got plenty of bonds going back to the 60's, but I haven't bought any more for years.
    Do you get advised you're winner? or do you need to check?

    They send you cheques automatically, I know what the envelopes look like and feverishly open them as it could always contain the big one. I've got quite a few and in 2010 collected £550 in prizes - it didn't get me what I'd get in higher bank interest but then a single big prize could alter that.

    I'd check that your bonds are registered at your current address and be inclined to chop them in and buy a big block of consecutive numbers (I think the min is £100 now) - it shouldn't make any difference as the numbers are random generated but I think its like giving a drum of raffle tickets a good stir. Have a look here & good luck http://www.nsandi.com/savings-premium-bonds

    Again I have to give respect and thanks Dedworth. Very good info for me. Your suggestion sounds really good. At last count I think I had about £660. I should have kept up to date with addresses etc years ago. Thanks again for you great info and reminder.
    This time next I could be a millionaire
