Lotto players urged to check their tickets NOW with £1million prize up for grabs – but it’ll be gone in days
ONE UK EuroMillions player is sitting on a jackpot prize of £1million jackpot and doesn’t even know it.
The National Lottery has warned that time is running out for this would-be millionaire to come forward and is urging players to check their tickets.
The lucky – or unlucky – lotto player has been sitting on the golden ticket since the draw was held on September 9, 2022.
They only have 11 days to hand the ticket over, or it will go towards charity.
The winning code is TDJL68325 and was purchased somewhere near Tewkesbury in Gloucestershire.
Players can check their tickets on the National Lottery app, website or take it into any participating shop to get your numbers checked.
Those who played online should receive an email notification if they have been successful.
If unclaimed, the money will go towards National Lottery-funded projects in the UK.
Earlier in February, a EuroMillions player from South Ayrshire, Scotland came forward to claim his £1million jackpot after the National Lottery appealed for help to find two missing winners.
The ticket was for the special 100 millionaires EuroMillions European Millionaire Maker draw on Friday 3 February, which saw 31 UK-based players become millionaires overnight.
Several of these jackpot wins are still unclaimed and soon their time will be running out too.
Andy Carter, the organisation’s Senior Winners’ Advisor, said: “They could be sitting on £1M and not even know it!
“We’re urging National Lottery players to check their tickets and their emails, if they played online, to see if they have some amazing news. What an incredible surprise it would be to realise you’ve started 2023 as a millionaire.”
