Nearly £900K Won in Suffolk as Premium Bonds Continue to Reward Savers
Have you checked your Premium Bonds this month? If you live in Suffolk, now might be a great time to do so! June's Premium Bonds prize draw brought in some exciting wins for local residents, with almost £900,000 awarded across the county. It's always fascinating to see how this unique investment scheme keeps changing lives—especially when the top prize is literally a cool £1 million.
So, what actually happened in June? Well, four lucky people in Suffolk each walked away with £50,000. That's life-changing money by any measure. Imagine opening your NS&I app one morning and discovering you’ve suddenly got fifty grand in your account. Not a bad return on a minimum investment of just £25, right?

And the winnings didn’t stop there. Another six people bagged £25,000, while nine more secured a £10,000 prize. In total, 357 people in Suffolk shared a combined prize pool of £891,000. This comes hot on the heels of last month’s draw, where someone in Suffolk actually won the jackpot — a full £1 million.
If you're new to Premium Bonds, here’s how it works: instead of earning interest, your bonds are entered into a monthly prize draw conducted by National Savings and Investments (NS&I). Each bond has a chance to win prizes ranging from £25 all the way up to that elusive £1 million. It’s like a savings account mixed with a lottery — safe, but with a sprinkle of excitement.
The quickest way to find out if you’ve won is through NS&I’s Premium Bonds prize checker app, the official website, or even via Alexa. As Andrew Westhead, NS&I’s retail director, pointed out, you can start checking from the second working day of each month.
And it’s not just Suffolk feeling lucky. Over in Wales, four people each won £100,000 in the same draw. Across the UK, more than 800 winners were announced, showing just how widespread the joy of Premium Bonds can be.
So whether you’ve been holding bonds for decades or just dipped your toes into this unique savings tool, it’s always worth checking. Who knows — next month, it might be your name on the winners’ list.
