$5,000 Welcome Bonus
A lucky National Lottery player has claimed the National Lottery's £5million jackpot. Camelot, who runs the Lotto draw, has confirmed it has received a claim for the huge sum.
If approved the single ticket-holder will win £5,076,717. The winning ticket was for the Lotto draw on Wednesday, May 31.
Andy Carter, senior winners’ advisor at The National Lottery, said, “We’re delighted that this fantastic Lotto jackpot has been claimed. What a magnificent May it turned out to be for Lotto players, with this winner joining the two lucky ticket-holders who shared the Lotto jackpot on 24 May and took home an amazing £4.5m each. Our focus is now on supporting this jackpot ticket-holder through the process and helping them start to enjoy their truly life-changing win.
“Add these recent lucky Lotto winners to the UK’s newest EuroMillions mega jackpot winner, who scooped an incredible £111m in Friday night’s draw (2 June) to become the 12th biggest ever UK winner, and we’ve seen a ‘Lotto’ luck on The National Lottery recently. Fingers crossed for some more big winners in the very near future.”
The ticket will now go through a validation process to make sure the claim is genuine. If approved, the winner will receive their money and will get to choose whether to stay anonymous or go public with the win.
