Premium bond holders are entered into a prize draw every month. There are two £1 million tax-free jackpots as well as a number of other prizes from £25 to £100,000.

Last December, the odds of winning a prize improved from 30,000 to one to 24,500 to one. The number of prizes also increased from 2.3 million to 2.9 million.

In the March draw, a man from Bedfordshire scooped £1 million just one month after buying £7,000 bonds for the first time.

Investments start at £100 and are capped at £50,000.

There are around 1.4 million unclaimed Premium Bonds prizes, worth over £58 million.
