How are Premium Bonds winners decided?
According to the NS&I website , they use a system called ERNIE (Electronic Random Number Indicator Equipment) to decide the winners.

It is “powered by quantum technology, which uses light” which helps it produce enough random numbers for a monthly prize draw in around 20 minutes.
The website adds: “Using light, ERNIE 5 generates random numbers that are matched against eligible Bond numbers to determine the lucky winners.
“And because it’s random, every Bond number, whether it has 8, 9, 10 or 11 digits, has a separate and equal chance of winning a prize.”
