Question Premium Bonds

My dad got me £1000 of premium bonds at the weekend, do you get a certificate or some sort of documentation through the post?

Yes, a bond certificate and you will be assigned a holders number (and sent kind of registered card) if you haven't had any berfore.
Good luck

Hi Mark,

You will get a certificate with your serial numbers on it. Then just check teletext every month to see all the Southerners scoop the jackpots

Good Luck

I've got the max holding and never received any kind of card but certificates, yes. You can use your holder number to check all your bonds on the web.
I win a prize every month, some (a lot)bigger than others.

AFAIK there is no such thing as a time limit for claiming a prize therefore those unclaimed are awaiting the lucky winners.

That is correct. However - No doubt Mr Broon will soon raid that nice little nest-egg to give away to some deserving "cause".

Of course he probably has already .

How do you keep the NS&I crew informed of your current whereabouts (being a Nomad and all that)

Max was 20k, pretty sure it still is? I suppose he may have some in partners name.

I had the max amount a few years ago and averaged one win a month (was quite exciting getting the winning letter through the door and hoping it was a big one) They earn't me more interest in a year than any savings account would.
