Massive £5m National Lottery prize still unclaimed after weeks – as time almost runs out on whopping £7.4m prize

THE winners of two whopping Lotto jackpots are still yet to claim their prizes – and one of them is nearly out of time.

Both winners are in the West Midlands, with a £5 million pound prize won by a ticket holder in Birmingham, while a Wolverhampton local bagged a £7.4 million windfall.

The lucky Brummy has still not claimed their cash after several weeks and the second winner is running out of time to rake in the larger amount.

The winner of the mega £7.4 million prize has until 15 December to claim the life changing sum after hitting the winning numbers on 18 June.

Lotto winners have 180 days to claim their prize, meaning the winner of the £5 million has until 27 March next year after bagging the jackpot on 28 September.

The winning numbers on that day were 3, 15, 20, 48, 57 and 58 and the Bonus Ball was 9.

Andy Carter, Senior Winners’ Advisor for the National Lottery, said: “Lotto players in the West Midlands are sitting on two massive National Lottery prizes worth a total of nearly £12.5M.

“It’s time to get these life-changing prizes claimed!

“We have the champagne on ice and our fingers crossed for both the West Midland’s missing multi-millionaires.”

Player can check their tickets online and on the National Lottery app.

If you think you have won, you should call the National Lottery Line on 0333 234 5050 or email [email protected].

In the event that the oblivious winners do not come forward, the prize money and all interest it has generated will go to National Lottery-funded projects across the UK.

This comes as another unknown Brit won the Set for Life lotto last week, entitling them to £3.6 million.

The lucky ticket-holder is set to receive £10,000 per month for the next 30 years after picking the winning numbers.
