    Hi quick question reference a deposit for a house, banks want to see continuos saving,
    Would investing in prize bonds, if you could show weekly purchases, the same as weekly saving count towards a deposit? I.e. Would the bank consider it saving for the purposes of a mortgage application?

    Remember you must hold bonds for a certain period before taking them out, if this is current purchases.
