the interest is paid twice a year.
yes, you would get the true valu of the gilt at maturity (purchase price), so the fluctuiating price is irrelevant.
government protected. in my opinion this is just lip service to keep everyone happy and refrain from anxiety and concern. if **** hit the fan do you really think the government could fund a full protection ? i personally dont. but in legal terms yes they're government backed and you would get your money back in the case of a **** show (lol), to be fair the uk government have never defaulted but as they say "past performance is not indicative of the future"
