You can find your Premium Bond account by locating your unique holder's number, either through NS&I's online service or by contacting them directly.
Understanding Your Premium Bond Holder's Number
Your Premium Bonds are not typically accessed via a traditional 'account number' like a bank account. Instead, all your Premium Bonds are grouped under a single holder's number. This unique identifier links all your Premium Bond holdings together.
This holder's number can appear in a few different formats:
- A 10-digit number
- A 9-digit number
- An 8-digit number followed by a letter
Methods to Locate Your Premium Bond Account
There are two primary ways to find your Premium Bond holder's number and access details about your account:
1. Through NS&I's Online Service
If you have an existing NS&I online account, the quickest way to find your Premium Bond details is by logging in.
- Step 1: Visit the official NS&I website.
- Step 2: Log in to your online account using your credentials.
- Step 3: Navigate to your "Premium Bonds account page." Your holder's number will be displayed there, providing an overview of all your Premium Bond holdings.
2. By Contacting NS&I Directly
If you prefer not to use the online service, or if you've lost access to your online account, you can contact NS&I directly for assistance. This method is particularly useful if you've lost touch with NS&I.
- Step 1: Call NS&I customer service.
- Step 2: Request a replacement Bond record.
- Step 3: NS&I will then send this record to you via post, which will contain your holder's number and detailed information about your Premium Bonds.
