Re: Premium Bonds

I have savings accounts for my two grandsons which I have held in their name since their births and I want to keep control of untill they are 25 or there abouts. they dont get much interest on about 12,000 each. if I bought them some PBs in their name could I register them at my address?so I could still keep control of the money. I want them to have this money when they are more mature for their future.I also now have a step grandson of 15 so I want to treat him the same, so do you think that buying some PBs is a good bet.

Re: Premium Bonds

I've never bought premium bonds, I suppose they seem too much like gambling, yet any savings scheme is a bit of a gamble.

I liked the Index-linked certificates, you knew where you were with them. Only wish they'd go on doing them.

The maximum at present is £50,000 at present. It has gone up by £10,000 for the last two years. I hope it goes up again this year too.

How can it be classed as a gamble you always get your money back and any wins are tax free.

Re: Premium Bonds

Now I've started investing at £50 a month, on top of the £150 I already held, I'm hoping for a few small wins. Or even a large one.
