National Lottery players urged to check tickets as more than £6million unclaimed
As surprising as it may seem, unclaimed lottery tickets is more common than you may think.
Tonight EuroMillions players will have the chance to win a whopping £186million jackpot – but if you’re a regular player you might actually already be a millionaire without knowing.
As of October 15, there are nine unclaimed National Lottery prizes – and you could be one of them.
According to National Lottery, these are big prizes that have "either not been claimed, or have not yet been validated and paid".
National Lottery is urging playing to come forward to claim their prize, and that "if a valid claim is not received within 180 days (around 6 months) of the draw date, the prize and any interest earned on it will go to benefit National Lottery Projects across the UK".
