Search continues for Kent EuroMillions winner from Tonbridge and Malling as player claims huge jackpot
If you played the EuroMillions lottery in September you could be sitting on a fortune as a prize worth £112,345.20 is yet to be claimed by one lucky person.
The winning ticket was bought in the Tonbridge and Malling area matching five main numbers and one lucky star number in the draw on September 9.
Players are now being urged to check and double-check their tickets in the hope the lucky winner of the six-figure pot can be found.
The search continues as it was revealed today that a UK player has claimed Friday's £171 million EuroMillions jackpot.
On the search for the Tonbridge and Malling ticket holder, Camelot’s senior winners’ advisor at The National Lottery, Andy Carter, said: “We’re desperate to find this mystery ticket holder and unite them with their winnings.
"This amazing prize could really make a massive difference to somebody’s life.
"We’re urging everyone who bought a ticket in this area to check their old EuroMillions tickets again or look anywhere a missing ticket could be hiding.
"We have our fingers crossed that the lucky winner comes forward to claim their win."
The EuroMillions' numbers on September 9 were 17, 23, 24, 26, 27 and the Lucky Star numbers were 4 and 9.
The ticket-holder has until March 8 to claim their prize.
Anyone who may not be in possession of their ticket but believes they are in contention of winning can still make a claim by writing to Camelot but must do so by October 9.
If no one comes forward with the winning ticket before the deadline then the prize money will go to help National Lottery-funded projects.
Players can also check their tickets online by downloading the National Lottery app or on its website.
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.
Anyone who has any queries or who believes they have the winning ticket should call the National Lottery Line on 0333 234 5050 or email help@national-lottery.co.uk.
