Two lucky UK lottery winners have still not claimed £12million in prize money, now Camelot is urging players to check their tickets to see if they have landed a life changing windfall.
A single ticket, bought in a store, won the £11,165,532 Lotto jackpot on Saturday August 14, while a day earlier an online punter won a £1,000,000 EuroMillions UK Millionaire Maker prize from the special EuroMillions draw.
Andy Carter from Camelot said he is hoping the winners come forward to claim the "life-changing" sums.
He said: “It’s just a week ago that these two life-changing prizes were won by two lucky ticket-holders who have yet to claim their prizes.
“We’re asking National Lottery players to check their tickets - for the Lotto jackpot prize this is the physical paper ticket while for the EuroMillions Millionaire Maker prize we’re asking players to log into their National Lottery account to check, as this win was online.
“These could be life-changing wins for two lucky ticket-holders and we’re hoping that both winners will now come forward and claim their amazing prizes.”
If a ticket worth more than £50,000 and won in retail has not been claimed after two weeks, Camelot will announce the area in which it was bought.
Players have 180 days from the day of the draw to claim their prize if they have the winning ticket.
In March, a couple claimed they missed out on a £182m EuroMillions jackpot when their numbers were drawn but their ticket payment didn’t go through.
Rachel Kennedy, 19, and Liam McCrohan, 21, have been left “absolutely heartbroken” when they realised their usual numbers of 6, 12, 22, 29, 33, 6 and 11 had come up.
They had played the same numbers for five weeks in a row, before all seven digits appeared in the draw on the 26th February.
