June Premium Bond winners announced

As lockdown restrictions start to ease across the UK, this month’s Premium Bond winners have even more reason to celebrate. This month the two £1 million Premium Bond winners are from Nottingham and Stoke-on-Trent, with countless others across the country landing additional prizes of between £100,000 to £25.

The first eligible Bond number drawn was from Nottingham. The woman, who has the maximum holding of £50,000 in Premium Bonds, purchased her winning Bond in January 2017. The winning Bond number is 292ME808065 and makes the woman the eighth £1 million jackpot winner from Nottingham.

June’s second Premium Bonds millionaire is a man from Stoke-on-Trent. He has a total Premium Bonds holding of £27,500 and his winning Bond number is 384CP325978. He purchased his winning Bond in February 2020 and the win makes him the second millionaire from Stoke-on-Trent.

Many congratulations to both on their life-altering win.

The two new millionaires won’t be the only one’s celebrating this month. Six lucky people have landed the top runners up prize of £100,000 each. The winners hail from Hereford and Worcester, Kent, Berkshire, Essex, Bromley and Devon and hold the premium bond numbers 342VB479189, 326JF684919, 289CL559205, 314SB818097, 226DG533244 and 260PJ571674 respectively.

A further 14 Premium Bond holders have won £50,000 each and another 25 individuals walk away some £25,000 richer this month. There’s further good news for some 2,273 premium bond holders who have won between £10,000 to £1,000 each and a massive 3,639,260 people who will be between £500 to £25 better off in June. All in all, the total prize money for this month totalled a staggering £104,088,425.
