Premium Bonds prize checker: When is May’s NS&I draw and have I won?
The May 2026 Premium Bonds draw is scheduled for Friday 1 May, with results available the following day through the National Savings and Investment (NS&I) website. Premium Bonds, a government-backed savings product, offer monthly prizes ranging from £25 to £1 million, with each £1 having a 22,000-to-one chance of winning. While the scheme is risk-free and has a theoretical 'interest rate' of 4% according to Martin Lewis, most participants do not win and many traditional savings accounts offer higher, more consistent returns.
