Premium Bonds and the post office Horizon scandle

Millerg

Does any have any views on how the worsening corruption of the post office will affect the safety of premium Bonds.
should I take the out asap before the the full extent of the corruption, lies and deception is revealed?

I mean, you know that Premium Bonds arent operated by the Royal Mail or the Post Office, dont you?

Even if they were, no Government is going to stand by and watch them all vanish into dust.

1) As others have already said, Premium Bonds are the responsibility of NS&I, not the Post Office.

2) In terms of "the worsening corruption of the post office", the current media frenzy relates to things that largely happened between 1997 and circa 2015. I.e. the "corruption" isn't worsening now, there is just more media and public awareness of things that happened about a decade or more ago.  If there was some reason for concern about the Post Office's involvement in Premium Bonds then the time to take your money out was in the early 2000's.
