    3 yrs in and not a sniff of anything.

    Am trying the trick of complaining here before checking and being pleasantly surprised...

    Edit- didn't work, just checked.... :(

    No luck for me today for the 7th week in a row (€100k invested). Mind you, I did win twice in 3 weeks before that. Always seems to be feast or famine.

    Nothing for me since September on 100k, about the only thing you can say about this joke these days is that at least they don't charge fees...

    Hey, I have a small number of bonds that I’d like to cash in. They have my old address on them and I’ve lost the physical paper slip (though I still have the ‘code’) for some of them them. What’s the easiest way to cash them in? Do I have to get the address corrected first? Or get the ‘lost’ ones re-issued first?

    Read the Repayment form for the answers to your questions.

    https://www.statesavings.ie/media/pdf/prizebonds_repayment_form

    You will also need to send the Change of Address form, and provide the documents required.

    https://www.statesavings.ie/media/pdf/changename_or_addressform

    If anything is not clear, phone them.

    Their new system kinda takes the fun out if logging in your new numbers. Plus, if your other half catches you, they see the full balance. War.

    Nothing for me again.

    On another note their website is a disaster. Wanted to buy more bonds so tried a 1k transaction which worked, then after that nothing. Even another 1k wouldnt work!
