£50,000 Premium Binds limit reached
Hi,
I have reached the £50,000 limit in Premium Bonds, but I have a DD going in each month. Where should I continue paying the DD into?

Savings accounts? ISAs? Pension?
Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.0 -
Do you mean direct debit (DD) or standing order (SO)? As far as I know you can only use SO's with premium bonds and not DD's.
If you want to continue saving, that is easy, set up a SO to a savings account. If you don't want to pay tax on the interest, save in a cash ISA and many will accept payments by SO.
Here is a link to a site that shows the best paying savings accounts (some of which are cash ISA's).

How can anybody answer that question sensibly, when you have given no info at all about yourself or your overall finances?
Maybe it would be best to pay it into a pension, or pay off a mortgage, or many other possibilities.

Just cancel it.

Cancel the standing order (I expect that's what you mean, rather than a direct debit)
I consider myself to be a male feminist. Is that allowed?3 -
Pick a charity.
