Premium Bond Checker for Android
My wife and I both use this app on different mobiles. Could be very useful but it did not advise me automatically of my £100 win this month, nor my wife that she had not won. We had to check manually. Also month not shown on message of not winning so she did not know whether it was this month (Apr '17) or last.
This app is designed a lot better than the official app from NS&I - it gives you the information about whether you and friends/family (whose Holder Numbers are entered) have won on a single page rather than needing to click on multiple people to check each individually.
The new version seems to have less functionality but my biggest gripe is that there is no way of knowing what month is being displayed.
Isn't doing anything. Just got a wheel spinning in the middle of the screen.
Now back to normal. Very useful thanks.
Quick, clear and simple
Very pleased with this app. It's a quick and convenient way to show that I'm not a millionaire...again.
Great app for info regarding whether I have won - or not, as is usually the case. Very easy to use and input the details for several people. Unfortunately it doesn't give any info on the last six months for any of the accounts that I have put on. It just says 'sorry you didn't win' when I know that there was at least one win. I have tried it on my Samsung A3 and my Sony Xperia tablet with the same problem.
Works well however the winning amounts are truncated - only shows £2 out of £25. I'm on stock ROM Galaxy S7, no unusual font settings. - NOW FIXED BY DEVELOPER, impressed with speed of reply and update :)
Now back to normal. Very useful thanks.
Much better layout, tks people. Season's greetings.
Simple to use, works perfectly
Great developer when the UK government changed the system the developer was great to update the software.. had a few glitches on the way but they got there. Well done and thanks
Edit: I am very happy to report that the developers have taken note of my previous suggestion and now I give it 5 stars for a fantastic app that works properly every time. I now am notified within a few days of the beginning of the month. Still waiting for the big win though!
Previously only 1 star as didn't work. 5 stars now as latest update fixed the problem. 10/10 to the developer for good communication also.
Does exactly what it says and quicker than the NS&I email service if you win, pity it can't make me a winner
This is a great app - easy to use and does just what it should do. So much simpler than logging on to NS&I.
Very pleased with this app. It's a quick and convenient way to show that I'm not a millionaire...again.
£25 win only showing as £2! Apart from that, good app.
Does what it says on the tin.
Premium Bonds
No longer shows prizes either for current month or for the last 6 months. Shame, as it was a really good app. Have tried forced stop and reinstall without success. UPDATE December 16th. Have just been contacted by the developer to say that this how now been fixed. I can confirm it is working again and am restoring the rating to 5 stars. Glad to have it back.
Was working well until December 2016, suspect changes ar NS&I as it just comes with 'Invalid response from NS&I'. After update from developer (16 Dec 16) app back to functioning correctly - many thanks.
After latest update to fix connection problem the app will not even load now. Don't you test before issuing update!!! UPDATE. - Now all works fine after today's update (16th) so I've changed rating to 5 Stars.
Was broken but works again now within a day, well done devs
Just displays the account names. Was working ok on the 2nd. Suspect changes at NS&I UPDATE 161216 Just installed latest update, all now works well although NS&I account details had to be re-entered. Thanks for the prompt fix.
The new navigation style makes using this app even easier. Simple and effective. 5/5
Great app made even better by this update. Excellent support from software team
This app does everything and more than the puerile NS&I verson. I particularly like the prize checker & notification facility.
When you don't win it still needs to refer to a month so you know, not just when you win. Thanks
Good simple app, but I agree with previous reviews that you need to name the month when checking... can this be added to make it a 5 star app?
No alerts been triggered despite winning...no update to do, so why have the updates stopped coming through...not a good app now
Haven't won't this month but no idea if that means this month or last month. Needs the name of the month for clarity....and 5 stars!
Doesn't recognise my wife's or my details. Between this and NS&I, very poor show.
W**k
Has suddenly stopped showing my results
It was a good ap but its now stopped working just saying "Invalid response from NS&I"
Stopped working December 2016
It tells you the month now
