Urgent appeal issued as time running out for Lotto winner to claim €500k prize
The life-changing sum was won in the 2pm draw Daily Millions Plus draw on Friday, March 28, with Lotto bosses revealing that the winning Quick Pick ticket was purchased at Tesco in Stillorgan Shopping Centre, Stillorgan, Co Dublin, on the day of the draw.
The winning numbers from the 2pm Daily Million Plus draw on Friday, March 28, were: 17, 22, 23, 25, 30, 37 and the bonus was 32.
Ticket holders have 90 days from the date of the draw to claim their prize, which means the Dublin winner has until close of business on Thursday, June 26 to come forward – just two weeks to go.
The National Lottery is urging all Daily Million Plus players in Dublin to carefully check their old tickets from late March to ensure they do not miss out on claiming this substantial prize.
"We are eagerly trying to reunite a Daily Million Plus player in Stillorgan with their €500,000 prize. The winning ticket was purchased at Tesco in Stillorgan Shopping Centre and matched all numbers in the 2pm draw on 28th March," said National Lottery spokesperson Emma Monaghan.
"With the deadline fast approaching on Thursday, 26th June, we're encouraging everyone in the area to check any old tickets they might have tucked away. You never know - this could be your winning moment, and you don't even know it yet!"
If you're holding the winning ticket, you are advised to sign the back of it and keep it somewhere safe. You should then contact the National Lottery prize claims team as soon as possible on 1800 666 222 or email claims@lottery.ie. Arrangements will be made for you to collect your prize at Lottery HQ.
