A lucky EuroMillions ticket holder who has won a staggering £83million is cluelessly walking around without claiming their winnings.
National Lottery players are being urged to check their tickets for last Friday’s draw, with the prize still going unclaimed.
The winner matched all five numbers and both lucky star numbers to win the life-changing £83,474,081.80 prize.
Those winning numbers are: 2, 11, 19, 30 and 49, whilst the winning lucky star numbers are 3 and 8.
Players should re-check their papers tickets, and if the numbers match, scan their EuroMillions ticket via the National Lottery app or in store.
Once confirmed, they can then call the National Lottery on 0333 234 5050 in order to make their claim.
Andy Carter, senior winners' advisor at Allwyn, said: “I can’t believe there’s one lucky ticket-holder out there who hasn’t claimed this incredible EuroMillions jackpot prize – there are 83,474,081 reasons for them to check their ticket straight away!
“It’s only been six days since the EuroMillions draw but, we’re waiting with bated breath to pay out this latest huge winner. We’re urging all EuroMillions players to check their paper tickets to see if they are our missing multi-millionaire.
NATIONAL LOTTERY LATEST:
“This is our first EuroMillions UK jackpot winner of 2025, following on from an incredible 2024 which saw four UK EuroMillions jackpots won, including a £177M win by an anonymous single ticket-holder in November, which was the third largest-ever UK win.”
Players have 180 days from the day of the draw to claim their prizes.
Following this, any unclaimed prizes add to the £30million raised each week for lottery funded projects.
After Friday’s draw, Carter said: “Amazing, what a fantastic night for a single UK ticket-holder who has scooped tonight's £83 million EuroMillions jackpot!"
“This lucky winner represents the first UK EuroMillions jackpot win of 2025, what a way to start the year,” he added.
Yesterday, the National Lottery urged a player to come forward to bank their £1million prize with just four weeks until the deadline to claim is over.
The UK Millionaire Maker ticket was bought on September 3, 2024 in the London Borough of Lambeth, with the deadline to claim falling on March 2, 2025.
The prize is one of several unclaimed National Lottery jackpots across multiple games, including EuroMillions, Lotto and Set For Life draws.
