Premium Bonds holders may be puzzled as to why there's an increase in the number of £25 prizes in the December draw, despite a drop in the overall prize count.
Nationwide Saving and Investments (NS&I) is to cut the prize fund rate for their popular savings product from 4.4 percent to 4.15 percent starting with the December draw, resulting in the odds of winning for each £1 Bond falling from 21,000 to one to 22,000 to one.
According to figures from NS&I, approximately 260,000 fewer prizes will be awarded in December compared to October, with the total prize pool decreasing by about £25 million.
