A National Lottery winner has yet to come forward to claim a £5.8million prize, with the ticket-holder having until March 25, 2027 to claim their winnings. The prize was won in the draw on Saturday, September 26.
The ticket matched all six main numbers in Round 1 of the draw to scoop the jackpot of £5,844,340. The winning numbers were 22, 27, 38, 42, 47, 59 and the Bonus Ball 31.
Three More Millionaires Made in Same Draw
The hunt for the jackpot winner comes as Lotto is now making more millionaires than ever before. In this same draw, a further three millionaires were made after each player matched five main numbers and the Bonus Ball to scoop £1million each.
Last month saw four Lotto jackpot winners crowned, including this mystery winner, helping take the total number of Lotto millionaires created so far this year to 140. There are more chances for players to become millionaires with a special £12million 'Must Be Won' draw taking place this Saturday, October 10.
Players Urged to Check Tickets
Andy Carter, Senior Winners' Advisor at Allwyn, operator of The National Lottery, said: "Somewhere, someone is holding a Lotto ticket worth more than £5.8 million and may not even realise it yet. It's an incredible thought and we're urging everyone who played Lotto in Lewisham for the draw on September 26 to check their tickets carefully. Whether you're local to the area or were just visiting at the time, it only takes a moment to check.
"Just imagine this sum of money in your bank account. This is a massive win and we really want to unite the lucky ticket-holder with their Lotto jackpot prize. Check your tickets - it could be you."
How 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 Allwyn, but it must be within 30 days of the draw.
Anyone who believes they have the winning ticket for any of the National Lottery draws within the 180-day deadline should call the National Lottery Line on 0333 234 5050 or email help@national-lottery.co.uk.
