Premium bonds - weird coincidence

[Gwylan]

Have £650 in and another £400 in holding.

Not had nowt. Maybe i'll have better luck next month.

How I love an optimist!

Nothing at all!

£300 for me, £100 for Mrs Poacher. Exactly the same as last month. Now that really is a "weird coincidence".
I've just checked again and they are genuinely October wins.

 

[Paulus]

Nothing for me this month.
MissP got £300,
Our son got £100,
MrsP got £50.

How long do they take to transfer winnings? I've 'won' £250 this month, but it hasn't found its way into my current account yet.

My August winnings were received on the 8th.

I don't know how the number of PB payments compares to the total handled by the banking system, but I suppose it's a good idea to stagger them over a few days so they don't crash the system paying everyone at once.

The time does vary. I've got mine set to 'reinvest' on the rare occasion my numbers come up!

 

[Red17]

My first ever win today, £100

There's not really an urgency, it's just that this month is the first since I switched from cheque to bank transfer, and I'm being impatient to check that it's working as the system seemed to go doolally when I set up the payment. I can't remember exactly but I think it was implying that it hadn't registered some of the info correctly, then when I called the helpline all I got was an auto attendant with voice recognition that was repeatedly misinterpreting what I said.

if you log in to your account, it should say if it's set up?
