So £50 on 47K . Grrrrrrr
That makes £75 winnings on the last three draws.
Quick calculation as a higher rate tax payer In easy acesss account 47,000 x 4.7% = 2209 ÷ 12 months x 3 months minus 40% = £331
Oh well the £256 loss has been worth the anticipation of opening up the portal on prize announcement day.

£100 off £31k
You're never going to get a consistent £175-200 per month on this sort of thing.
Depending on which three month period I want to pick from the last year my return is anywhere from 2.8% to 8.8% - it's too short a period to be worth worrying about what the average return is. Over the 11 months since I dumped my money in, i'm at near enough 5% exactly. Next year might be better or worse.
If you want to see a consistent guaranteed return, then Premium Bonds are the wrong investment product for you.

The obvious answer would be that he's referring to the household figure and between him and his other half, they have £55k total
Edit - or perhaps even more obvious, he made a typo and meant to say £45k or £50k or something

Just £150 off 100k between the wife and I.
That might have been the last one for us if the house move goes ahead.
I assume you lose entry to the draw the moment you take the money out? It's not backdated to a certain day? E.g. If the next draw is on the 1st Oct, I should wait until the 2nd before withdrawing.
