Premium Bonds A total of £26 billion is now invested in Premium Bonds by 23 million people who, instead of interest, win tax-free prizes in return. Each £1 invested buys a unique Premium Bond number and these go into a monthly draw. The eligible Bond numbers picked by ERNIE, the Premium Bond number generator, will win a prize, ranging from £50 to £1 million. In June’s prize draw, NS&I gave away over a million tax-free prizes from a £70 million prize fund. The customer’s investment is 100% secure because Premium Bonds are backed by HM Treasury, and customers can get their money back at any time. ENDS
