Ian Ackerley, at NS&I, said: "Each £1 Bond has an equal chance of winning and whether it is a high value holding like September’s winners or a smaller standing order that builds up steadily

over time, the magic of Premium Bonds is that regular savings habits can lead to life-changing sums of money.

"The minimum investment is now just £25 which means that it is easier to put money into Premium Bonds than before. 

“The enduring appeal is the chance to be surprised and delighted by not only the jackpot, but by any of the three million plus tax-free prizes paid out this month."

Elsewhere in the draw, six people won prizes of £100,000, 11 people secured a payout of £50,000 and 22 people won £25,000.

NS&I says that close to 3.4 million other tax-free prizes between £25 and £100,000 will also be paid out this September.

In total for the September 2019 draw, £96,271,675 will be paid out.
