Appeal to find owner of unclaimed winning EuroMillions ticket bought in Tyrone

The National Lottery have made an appeal for people to double-check their tickets from last month because they might be millionaires.

The prize comes from the EuroMillions UK Millionaire Maker draw and it was drawn on April 24.

But the winner is yet to come forward and only has a few more months to do so to claim the prize.

UK players automatically receive a EuroMillions Millionaire Maker code printed on their ticket and the winning code for this one is MBGT03608.

The ticket holder has until October 21 to claim their prize.

Andy Carter, Senior Winners Advisor at Allwyn, operator of The National Lottery said: “A lucky EuroMillions player is the winner of a life-changing £1,000,000 and doesn’t even know it. We are on a mission to unite our lucky winner with their million-pound prize and are asking players to check their tickets.

“Were you in or around County Tyrone in the week leading up to the 24 April draw? Do you live or work in the area, do you have family and friends there who you were visiting or were you just passing through?  We want to find this mystery ticket-holder and pay out their life-changing prize.”

If no-one comes forward with the winning ticket before the prize claim deadline, then the prize money, plus all the interest it has generated, will go to help National Lottery-funded projects across the UK.
