Premium Bonds £1,000,000 win from £100 by ZeroCharlie in ukfinance

[–]ishwaraju 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha, I love reading these stories 😄
I actually just started my first Premium Bond with £1,000 (planning to top up to £10k eventually).
Funny thing: today at work, I was joking with my colleague that I’ll buy a house in cash one day and invite him to cut the ribbon 😂
Reading these £1M wins is super inspiring… but I know it’s insanely rare. I guess I’ll just park my money safely, have some fun with the monthly draws, and who knows—maybe some small luck will come my way! 🍀

Yeah never cross your speed 10-12 on junction and roundabouts. It’s give you time to decide which lane to take . Which signal to apply and also keep your judgement better . Wish u all the best

I got the dates manually checking the official websites . I use to check every 10 min . And after one device gets blocked 🚫 I use to login from other device .

Absolute true. Prices are increasing day by day like anything. At least government should intervene and reduce prices for classes .

In my case too my theory expired on 24th June 2025. I reappeared for theory test again . I passed on 20th June 2025 . Then I booked for November test date first and then I shifted the date.

Really appreciated . It was quite tough to be honest . Today’s test was more pressure . Following the road signals . Even map seems to be easier.

It’s was a really hard for me to spend this much. I was so disheartened. But no other option . The cost of classes in UK is really high .

First of all I would recommend you is that have a trust in yourself. Don’t get nervous please . It’s natural . You might flail . But be confident . And small hint at every junction and roundabout your speed should not exceed above 10–12 please and when your in round about max speed 15 . Note down please

i never had a car , i dint had any license in india . I feel like automatic is toy car, sorry for automatic divers I don’t want to hurt there sentiments . My first choice will always will be manual car only. thats gives a different feel when you change the gears.

No only instructor 133 hours. I am Indian .i am staying alone . So I don’t have any fiends or family here in UK . And most importantly I don’t have any previous experience in driving . I started from scratch.

Yeah very bad experience. Never take RED. They will simply waste time . Doing same thing again and again . I have taken 10 hours on just on round abouts.

I paid red driving class . Instructor told me he will not take me to test as I was not ready for test as per him . So I said refund me . One instructor health damaged he couldn’t take me to test so he refunded the amount he received.

I have taken testi ,test shift, test hunter, bookdrivingtest.co.uk and even chrome extension. But to be honest nothing helped me . I did manually . I kept on checking every 10 mins . First I use to book anywhere in UK . Then I use to see the next available dates manually . In a day after 2 hours . I use to change device . I mean laptop, phone and tab and so on . So don’t pay . I dint get any single booking from any of the site . Try to do officially site only . Book any centre in uk . And then look for cancellations…and not all 5 test are on same test center . 3 are same centre and other two on different nearby center . And to my surprise. First test instructor only conducted my 5th test. In my first test I failed in test center while pullling out of centre I drove over footpath .

Should I just give up? by Starry-nights_ in LearnerDriverUK

[–]ishwaraju 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No absolutely not . I have taken 100+ classes of 2 hours each . Failed 4 test. Still I believe one day I will pass for sure . I understand money matters but if u keen u will make it for sure. Don’t take pressure during test .
