I’m getting fed up with premium bonds.

What price did you purchase them at if you don't mind me asking and what price are they now?

I was in pre-split, so its $47 at today's equiv. $661 is the price today. I don't have many left now.

That's a very nice increase - I imagine there's a similar story with the likes of Google, Netflix and similar

Just remembered to check my bonds today......only to find that with the weekend and the bank holiday, we'll have to wait until the 5th to find out if we are millionaires.

I can’t really believe that I just logged in to make sure you weren’t full of crap
When my son was born 42 years ago I bought him 5 bonds at £1 each. Don't know if he still has them and he has moved house a few times so if his numbers did come up he probably wouldn't know. Do they try to trace you if you don't make a claim?
How much are they to buy now, and is there a minimum amount that you have to buy?

They are still £1, but minimum amount , for a child anyway, is 25.
They do not actively chase you with your winnings, but just go on the NS&I website, and you can check.
There is no cut off time to collect.
Once set up, you can get a text to tell you if you win. Unless it is the £1M, when they phone you.

I'd better make sure my phone is fully charged on Wednesday then.
Too late then. They phone the day before .
If he can't find the tickets though surely he will not be able to claim anything? Or can you give them a breakdown of when, where and how many were bought including your name and all the addresses you have lived at over the years?
"If you can’t find your holder’s number or account number, you can phone NS&I on 08085 007 007 or write and ask for a replacement bond record to be sent to you. Give as much detail as you can about your past addresses, where and when you bought the Premium Bonds and how much they might be worth.
*Alternatively, you can use the NS&I Tracing Service or My Lost Account to track down your Premium Bond details".

Recently I opened an NS&I account for my mother so she could buy PBs as a new customer. They came back and said that she already had PBs worth £50, bought for her in 1957. She had no knowledge of who would have bought them for her. Unfortunately, in all that time they'd won zilch.
As already said by others, a search by NS&I will find any missing bonds.
