The NS&I Premium Bond<\/a> prize winners have been announced for June, including two new lucky millionaires. Premium Bonds are a savings<\/a> account offered by National Savings & Investments (NS&I<\/a>), one of the largest savings institutions in the UK, backed by the Treasury.<\/p>\n

The accounts don\u2019t earn interest traditionally and consistently. Instead, each bond is entered into a monthly, randomly generated prize draw. Between \u00a325 and \u00a350,000 can be invested in the account, and prizes of up to \u00a31 million can be won every month. NS&I has revealed the full list of June’s high-value winners, with savers from Leeds and Cheshire West and Chester scooping up the jackpot prizes.<\/p>\n

The first winning bond number of the million-pound prize is 662EK268242 to a bondholder based in Leeds. This winner purchased their winning Bond in February 2026 and holds \u00a342,425 in Premium Bonds<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The second \u00a31million jackpot winner is based in Cheshire West and Chester. Their winning Bond number is 573GA618329, and it was purchased in March 2024. They hold a total of \u00a333,800 in Premium Bonds<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The prize fund rate for this month\u2019s prize draw is 3.3%, and the odds of any \u00a31 Bond number winning a prize are 23,000 to one.<\/p>\n

How to check if you\u2019ve won Premium Bonds prizes<\/p>\n

Premium Bonds<\/a> savers can check if they\u2019ve won a prize through the NS&I website or the prize checker app from June 2.<\/p>\n

To check on the NS&I website, you\u2019ll need your Premium Bonds<\/a> holder\u2019s number. For the prize checker app, you\u2019ll need your NS&I number or holder\u2019s number. You can also use these tools to check for any unclaimed prizes owed to you.<\/p>\n

Currently, 2,754,285 prizes worth \u00a3118,216,175 are awaiting claim. However, NS&I said Over 99% of prizes have been paid to winners since the draw began in 1957.<\/p>\n

According to the savings institution, the “best way” for Bondholders to avoid missing prizes is to have them paid directly into their bank account or automatically reinvested into Premium Bonds up to the \u00a350,000 holding limit.<\/p>\n

Prizes automatically reinvested are immediately eligible for the next draw. These payment methods now account for nine in 10 prizes being paid in these ways.<\/p>\n

Customers who think they may have an unclaimed prize (prizes over 18 months old) can check by entering their holder\u2019s number into NS&I\u2019s online prize checker or the prize checker app.<\/p>\n

NS&I recently announced plans to increase the Premium Bonds prize fund rate<\/a> from 3.3% to 3.8% in July. Customers will also have more chances to win, with the odds shortening to 22,000 to 1 from 23,000 to 1.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"NS&I announces June Premium Bonds prize winners \u2013 check if you’ve won \u00a31million (Image: NS&I) The NS&I Premium…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":53473,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[4],"tags":[26381,21899,26380,26379,26384,26383,8730,26382,5,6],"class_list":["post-53472","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-uk","tag-june-prize-winners","tag-money-saving","tag-nsi","tag-premium-bonds","tag-premium-bonds-prize-checker","tag-premium-bonds-winners-june-2026","tag-savings","tag-u00a31-million-jackpot","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@UnitedKingdom\/116674273098341762","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/53472","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=53472"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/53472\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/53473"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=53472"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=53472"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=53472"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
