Premium Bonds

[One_John_Ryan]

Anyone else got them? Mine have done me well so far. My parents got me 100 quids worth for my 18th and in the 2 and a bit years I've had them I've won twice. Won 50 quid last year and another 50 this month too so £100 in just over 2 years. Miles better than the interest rate and I get my 100 quid back if I want. Definate thumbs up from me.

Had them for 17 years and not one anything not as bad as my Grandad who got them the year they came out and still hasn't won :laugh:

Ive got £100 worth of premium bonds too, but never won anything in the 7 years Ive had them

Look of the draw really it seems, luckily I've done ok so far.

I've got a five figure sum invested in Premium Bonds dating back to 2003.

I've won £500 in prizes since September 2007. In total i've probably won about £2000 since i started.

I'd advise anyone to invest their money in them.

I have a four figure amount invested into them and OJR has actually won more than i have such is life. £50 for me so far but i will keep investing because it not only saves my money from the taxman, i can also just turn around and say i"'ll have it all back thanks".

Why don't you get a ISA? Can invest upto £3k a year tax free.

If you can properly manage your investments, you can manage everything else in your life.

prefer to invest money in my firms SAYE scheme.can buy shares after three years of saving at huge discount then sell straight away at the full market price.

[Kelly_Owls]

I put £500 in a couple of months ago.

Well I say that I did but it's my money and my mum put it in to prevent me spending it on crap.

[argyle-ive]

You'll thank mum for that one day....

My old dear did the same years back. Still manged to cash them (can write like her better than she can thanks to detention cards and Sick Notes at school) and had a top night out thankyou Gran, RIP, great investment. No real believer in such things, sure i'll find that Sugar Momma in France this Spring before my cash runs out. Suppose they were better than the poxy Charles and Di sovvies, got feckall for them, cant believe my Socialist family ever got them
