Are you Kent's newest millionaire?

If you bought a Premium Bond in February 2009 you could be sitting on a fortune!

July's jackpot draw saw ERNIE paying out more than 1.8 million prizes nationally, amounting to £54m in cash.

But the £1m prize goes to a man who lives in Kent, has holdings of £7,252 and has the bond number 152EN059991.

Kent has a total of 687,562 in Premium Bonds holdings, adding up to a staggering £1.5bn.

If unclaimed, the prize holder would join the mystery woman from Kent who won £50,000 in November 2007 - and is yet to claim her winnings.

But one of the oldest unclaimed prizes in the county dates back to 1959, when a prize of £25 went uncollected.
