Are you one of the Premium Bonds jackpot winners?

A Surrey woman has become the county's twenty-first Premium Bonds millionaire.

A man from the West of Scotland also won £1m as NS&I announced the results of this month's draw.

NS&I said it is holding on to £1.2m in unclaimed prizes won by Surrey residents.

Some 2.3m prizes were won in May’s draw, starting at a value of £25. Alun Williams, NS&I’s Assistant Retail Director, said: “The people of Scotland have obviously been thanking their lucky stars recently, as this month’s winner is the second person in two months who has landed the million pound jackpot.”

A £10,000 prize drawn in March 2014 was won by a Surrey man but has not been claimed. He holds just £10 in Premium Bonds.

There is no time limit on claiming the prizes. In West Scotland, the oldest prize is £25, and was drawn in April 1963, while in Surrey, the oldest prize remaining unclaimed is also worth £25 and was won in September 1963.

The oldest unclaimed prize nationally dates back to November 1957, and was similarly £25.
