Urgent warning to National Lottery players to check their tickets NOW as £1million prize goes unclaimed | The Sun

NATIONAL Lottery players have been urged to check their tickets after one scooped a £1,000,000 jackpot.

The winning Lotto numbers on that date were 2, 7, 17, 28, 31, 37 and the Bonus Ball was 8.


Lottery bosses have said the winning ticket was bought in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets.

The matching ticket-holder has 180 days to claim the prize. Anyone not in possession of their ticket, for whatever reason, but who believes they have a genuine claim can still make a claim in writing to Camelot, but it must be within 30 days of the draw.

Andy Carter, Senior Winners’ Advisor at The National Lottery said, “We are desperate to find this mystery ticket-holder and unite them with their winnings.

"This amazing prize could really make an enormous difference to somebody’s life! We’re urging anyone who bought a ticket in this area to check their old Lotto tickets again – the easiest way to do this is via the National Lottery app – and by looking anywhere a missing ticket could be hiding.

“On Lotto, every ticket-holder who matches five main numbers and the Bonus Ball is guaranteed to win an incredible £1M, and there were a total of five from this draw.

"It’s worth spending a bit of time checking in the pockets of clothing, in wallets, bags and down the back of the sofa for this missing ticket. We have the champagne on ice and our fingers crossed that the lucky winner comes forward to claim their win.”

In 2013 Jane Parks became the UK’s youngest EuroMillions winner at just 17, bagging £1million.

The Edinburgh-based Lottery winner uploaded snaps from the weekend where she played a game of bingo at the local pub and sipped Wkd Blues.
