I’d forgotten that a well meaning friend of my mums bought a couple of quids worth of premium bonds for me when I was born. Roll on over 50 years and an envelope landed on the doorstep today.

I’ve won the princely sum of £100

.

Looking forward to spending it on half a dozen bottles of wine, or more likely, three good ones. Happy Christmas mums friend, you’ve cheers me right up

I'm 56 years in and ain't won shyte...I was considering putting a few bob into it.
They recon 20k plus and you might get a good chance.

If you have Premium Bonds it's important to keep your address up to date.
My wife has some that go back to the 70s. And all numbers can be checked online.
Alas no prizes so far.

Money goes to money Clint. I have won nothing either. I am not bitter about it I promise

I have some and my girlfriend has a lot.. I win the occasional £50, she wins like £1-200 every month it seems, the other month she won 5k!!!

I think it is one of those things where you can be above or below the rate and shes clearly winning it while the rest of us are below it
