Camelot’s Andy Carter, Senior Winners’ Advisor at The National Lottery, said: "Time really is running out for the winner of this prize, but we are still hopeful that someone will come forward at the very last minute to claim the money. We’re urging everyone to check their old tickets one final time - the easiest way to do this is via the National Lottery app - or look anywhere a missing EuroMillions ticket could be hiding. This life-changing prize could really help to make dreams become a reality for someone out there.”
The special event draw saw 100 guaranteed millionaires made across the European EuroMillions community, with 24 of the prizes won by ticket holders in the UK. Andy added: “Twenty-three of the 25 lucky UK ticket holders have claimed their prizes from the special EuroMillions draw, and we’re hoping that these last two winners - one from a ticket bought in the Hinckley and Bosworth District and the other in Doncaster - will now come forward so that they can start to enjoy their amazing win.
“There’s another chance for UK EuroMillions players to win big in this Friday’s draw with a special estimated £111M jackpot up for grabs. Players are urged to get their tickets early to be in with a chance of winning this massive prize.”
