Final Call to Claim Croydon National Lottery Prize as Another London EuroMillions Win Approaches Expiry

A resident of Croydon is facing the prospect of losing a substantial sum of money, as the National Lottery’s list of unclaimed prizes reveals. A ticket purchased for the draw on 2nd April this year has gone unclaimed, which entitles the holder to a remarkable £10,000 every month for a year, totalling an astounding £120,000. The winning numbers for this draw were 2, 3, 8, 27, 39, and Life Ball 7.

Time is of the essence for this individual, as the prize will be forfeited if not claimed within a specific timeframe. According to the rules, a valid claim must be submitted within 180 days—approximately six months—from the date of the draw. If the prize is not claimed by 29th September, the winnings, along with any interest accrued, will be redirected to support National Lottery projects throughout the UK.

Another Unclaimed Prize in Haringey

In a similar situation, a player from Haringey is also at risk of missing out on their winnings. However, unlike the Croydon resident who would receive their funds in monthly installments, this individual is set to receive a lump sum of £104,628 after winning the EuroMillions Match 5 + 1 Star prize during the draw on 7th July. The winning numbers for this ticket were 5, 29, 33, 45, 47, and the Lucky Stars 5 and 8. This winner has until 3rd January next year to claim their prize.

The process of claiming lottery winnings varies depending on how the ticket was purchased. For those who play online, claiming a prize of up to £30,000 can be done directly through the app. Winners simply need to verify the card linked to their account following the instructions provided in their winning notification. This confirmation must be completed before 11pm on the last day of the claim period.

Claiming Process for Retail Lottery Products

For players who have purchased tickets through retail outlets, the claiming process differs slightly. Winnings of up to £100 can be claimed in-store, while amounts between £500 and £50,000 can be claimed online through the official website. For prizes exceeding £50,000, winners are required to contact the National Lottery directly by calling 0333 234 44 33.
