Doubt it. The way the system works if you owned every single premium bond there is (over 37,000,000,000) you would win every single prize going but you'd still only make 2.85% 'interest' on it. Ok so if you're investing 37 billion pounds a billion pounds interest isn't to sniff at but if you were to invest only £1000 for a year, odds are you'd come away with £1000. And yeah, as for the BT shares thing they're about to cut 10,000 jobs so I'm guessing they're struggling a bit too.
