How to see if you’ve won on Premium Bonds

You can check your account via the NS&I website. 

Prize draws are conducted every month and prizes up to £1,000,000 are given away.

To find out if you have ever won a Premium Bonds prize, you will need to dig out your holder's information and head over to the prize checker.

You will need your holder’s number which you can find on your bond record, or in the app.

You can also use your NS&I number which you should be able to find on any communication about your bonds.

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."
