Andrew Westhead, NS&I Retail Director, said ahead of Christmas: “Congratulations to our two jackpot winners from Shropshire and York who have each started the countdown to the festive period a million pounds richer.”
Savers can hold up to £50,000 in Premium Bonds, including those aged under 16. Premium Bonds offer the security of being backed by HM Treasury alongside the excitement of potentially winning tax-free prizes.
Newly purchased Premium Bonds need to be held for one full calendar month after purchase before being eligible for the prize draw.
Prizes are funded based upon a prize fund rate applied across the total of all eligible Premium Bonds held.
Each £1 Bond purchased is entered into a monthly prize draw, where prizes range from £25 to £1 million, making it a different and engaging way to save. The jackpot prize was increased to £1 million from the April 1994 draw. There are now two £1 million prizes each month.
Bond holders can check if they have won prizes ranging from £25 to £100,000 the day after the first working day of each month by using the Premium Bonds prize checker app, visiting the NS&I website, or by asking Alexa.
This would be Tuesday morning. To check prizes on the NS&I website Bond holders will need their Premium Bonds holder’s number. For those using the Premium Bonds app they can use their holder’s number, or their NS&I number.
