premium bonds info req

Hi, thanks for reading.

In april (april 5th), I put alot of money into premium bonds, however now on april 30th I need to withdraw it. Can anyone tell me if they will be entered into into any draws what so ever? Or do they have to be in one full calander month before being elegible? I am hoping they will be included in the may draw (after all I wont get round to completing or posting the withdraw form until may 1st + the time in the post it will take).

Thanks

    Found this which hopefully answers your query

    When Bonds go into the draw

    Your Bonds become eligible to take part in the prize draws once you have held them for a full calendar month following the month you bought them. They then go into every draw until you decide to cash them in, giving you the chance every month to win tax-free prizes.
