National Lottery searches for £1m Essex winner as ticket goes unclaimed
Summarised from 4 outlets · Updated 29 Oct, 14:19 · Archive
A £1 million EuroMillions ticket bought in Thurrock on October 13 remains unclaimed.
The National Lottery is hunting for the owner of a £1 million EuroMillions ticket bought in Thurrock on October 13. The winner has not yet claimed their prize, with a deadline of April 11, 2027 to do so.
Andy Carter, Senior Winners' Advisor at Allwyn, the operator of The National Lottery, said: 'This is not a drill. There is someone out there with no idea they are the owner of a £1M prize which could change their life forever.' He called on the public to help locate the winner, urging ticket buyers to check their tickets and to tell friends, family and colleagues.
Anyone who purchased a EuroMillions ticket in a Thurrock shop on October 13 but does not have the ticket in their possession can still make a claim in writing to Allwyn within 30 days of the draw date. If no-one claims the prize before the deadline, the money plus interest will go to support National Lottery-funded projects across the UK.
