Search on for unclaimed £1m Lotto winner in Fenland

Summarised from 3 outlets · Updated 30 Oct, 16:37 · Archive

A £1 million Lotto prize won on 17 October in Fenland, Cambridgeshire remains unclaimed.

A mystery Lotto ticket-holder in Fenland District, Cambridgeshire has won £1 million and may not yet know it. The ticket was purchased for the Saturday, 17 October draw and matched five main numbers plus the Bonus Ball in Round 2. The winning numbers were 4, 9, 15, 32, 38, 42 and the Bonus Ball was 2.

The winner has until midnight on 15 April 2027 to claim the prize. Anyone who bought a ticket from a shop for that draw is urged to check their tickets, as the winning ticket may be hidden in a car glove box, kitchen drawer or elsewhere.

Andy Carter, senior winners' advisor at Allwyn, the operator of The National Lottery, said: 'Making millionaires is what we do best, so when a prize goes unclaimed, we do everything we can to track down our missing winner.' He appealed to people to check their tickets and spread the word to friends, family and colleagues.

Anyone who believes they have a legitimate claim but does not have the physical ticket can still contact Allwyn in writing within 30 days of the draw. Those with queries or who believe they might have the winning ticket should call the National Lottery Line on 0333 234 5050 or email help@national-lottery.co.uk.

If the prize goes unclaimed by the deadline, the £1 million and any interest will be distributed to National Lottery-funded projects across the UK.
