    What is the likelihood of the Govt increasing the number of bonds which can be held over the current £50k limit in view of the rising inflation rate?
    Do they want us to save our money or plough it back into the economy?

    As discussed in threads about the likelihood of the prize rate increasing, NS&I sets the parameters for Premium Bonds according to their net financing target rather than what's happening in the broader market, so changes to inflation and/or savings interest rates are unlikely to trigger PB alterations in themselves.

    Roughly £250-500m of PBs are still added to the pot every month so they remain popular even if dropping away from the unusual market-leading position they held within the last year or two, and even without any other NS&I products in the mix, that rate of increase would achieve their net financing target without any adjustments being needed....

    Do you now have to use two factor verification for logging onto the website to check for winners?
    No, as long as you know your Holder Number, checking your prize winning doesn't require a logon.
