National Lottery officials are urgently calling for all players in the East Lindsey District of Lincolnshire who entered the September 13, 2023 draw to log onto the lotto app.

The winning numbers on that date were 7, 10, 23, 29, 31, 42 and the Bonus Ball was 6.

The unsuspecting ticket-holder has until 11 March 2024 to claim their 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 three 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.”

If you take a punt online, your ticket will be checked automatically, and an email will be sent alerting you of your jackpot.

You can also scan your retail tickets on the National Lottery app to check if you’re a winner.

“If you have the winning ticket call the National Lottery Line on 0333 234 5050 to claim,” added Andy.

With all National Lottery draws, players have 180 days from the day of the draw to claim their prize if they have the winning ticket.
