Mystery Welsh lottery winner has one week to come forward to claim £1 million prize

A mysterious Welsh lottery winner has just over a week to claim their £1 million prize. The National Lottery has revealed that a EuroMillions UK Millionaire Maker prize worth £1,000,000 remains unclaimed. The search continues for the owner of the winning ticket, purchased in Rhondda Cynon Taf, from the EuroMillions draw on April 16, 2024. The unique winning UK Millionaire Maker code for this prize is XMXB 32530. The fortunate ticket holder has until Sunday, October 13, 2024, to come forward and claim their prize.

Players are encouraged to thoroughly check their EuroMillions UK Millionaire Maker code as every EuroMillions line played automatically includes a unique code for UK players. Senior winners’ advisor at The National Lottery, Andy Carter, stated, “We are rapidly approaching the deadline to claim this amazing EuroMillions prize, but we’ve not yet been contacted by the rightful ticket-holder to claim their prize, despite numerous appeals. There is still time though, with just over one week left for this ticket-holder to get in touch.”

Carter further added, “All that we ask is for all EuroMillions players to take some time out of their day to have a search and check their tickets. That five minutes out of your day could end up making you a millionaire. We are ready and waiting with the champagne on ice for that life-changing phone call to come in to us here at The National Lottery.” Ticket holders can verify their tickets online through the National Lottery app or website.

If the winning ticket remains unclaimed before the deadline, the prize money along with all generated interest will be redirected to aid National Lottery-funded projects across the UK. The National Lottery funds various projects from arts to sports, supporting local charities and aiding athletes to excel in competitions like the Olympics and Paralympics. Winners have 180 days from the draw date to claim their prize. Individuals with winning tickets or queries can contact the National Lottery Line or visit the National Lottery website for further information.

The National Lottery advises individuals concerned about lost or unchecked tickets to consider setting up a direct debit or play online on their website. By playing National Lottery games, players contribute £30 million weekly towards National Lottery-funded projects. Ensure not to miss out on the chance to claim this life-changing prize!
