NS&I has responded to a Premium Bonds customer who wanted to know if they could still hold their Bonds after moving abroad to France.<\/p>\n
An X user contacted the group saying: “My daughter has moved to France permanently and has forgotten about her Premium Bonds.<\/p>\n
“What is the best way for her to now cash them in? Also, if she wanted to, could she keep them while still living in France?”<\/p>\n
The savings group said in response: “As long as your daughter has a UK bank account, she is eligible to hold Premium Bonds. To clarify, has your daughter registered for the online and phone service yet?”<\/p>\n
The dad respones to say she had not signed up for the service and asked if she could do that using her French address.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
NS&I said: “Your daughter is able to register from an French address. However, this will need to be done by postal form.”<\/p>\n
The provider included a link to this webpage where customers can download the postal registration form.<\/p>\n
To fill in the form, a person needs to provide some personal details such as their name and address as well as details of their NS&I accounts and investments.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
They also have to provide details of any previous names and addresses that are relevant to the application.<\/p>\n
Another customer recently contacted the provider as they were trying to collect a prize from the December prize that had still not arrived by mid January.<\/p>\n
They said: “I completed the cheque replacement form as advised when I called, but it did not require info on which Bond it relates to so I’m concerned I haven’t done the right thing.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
NS&I responded to say it should take two working days to process the form once it had been received.<\/p>\n
The group added: “”If you requested a payment by bank transfer, it should take three working days to arrive once processed. If it is a payment by cheque, it can take around five working days to arrive once sent.”<\/p>\n
Premium Bonds holders are entered into a monthly prize draw rather than getting an interest rate on their savings, with each \u00a31 Bond having an equal chance of winning a prize, up to \u00a31million.<\/p>\n
