Millions of Premium Bond holders are sitting on cash prizes worth up to £100,000, which they have yet to claim, new data has revealed.
There are more than £100m worth of prizes going unclaimed, the latest figures from National Savings & Investments (NS&I) show, marking the first time the figure has tipped over the threshold.
Across all regions of the UK, there are 2,598,139 unclaimed prizes, ranging from the lowest amount of £25 to 11 jackpots of £100,000. The region with the highest number of unclaimed prizes is the South East, with 389,713 worth £14,996,600. However, it is London that holds the highest value in unclaimed prizes, with £15,338,425 split between 386,616 prizes.
