Could YOU be a millionaire? Winning National Lottery ticket worth £1MILLION is still unclaimed after two weeks

The National Lottery is trying to find the owner of a ticket worth £1million which is still unclaimed after two weeks.

Players have been urged to check everywhere for the EuroMillions ticket which was bought in North Lanarkshire for the Halloween draw on October 31.

The player has no idea they have won the bounty for the Millionaire Maker draw, which is only open to UK players.

And now the National Lottery is ‘desperate’ for those who entered the draw to check their tickets for the winning code of VCVX 86421.

And the fortunate player has until April 28, 2024 to claim their prize, the Lottery has said.

Andy Carter, senior winners’ advisor at The National Lottery said: ‘If you bought a EuroMillions ticket in North Lanarkshire for the draw on October 31, it’s time to look everywhere – in the pockets of clothes you might have been wearing at the time, bags, in the car, wallets and purses and in that sideboard or drawer where we all tend to put bits and pieces – and check your tickets.

‘Do you live or work in this area, do you have family and friends there who you were visiting or were you just passing through?

‘We’re desperate to find this mystery ticket-holder and pay out their life-changing prize – imagine the possibilities for them. We have the champagne on ice and our fingers crossed that the lucky winner comes forward to claim their win.

‘To try to jog EuroMillions players’ memories, the draw fell on Halloween. Were you out with the kids trick or treating?

‘Elsewhere, interested football fans may remember that North Lanarkshire Scottish Premiership side, Motherwell, were in league action on the day after the draw – on November 1 – unfortunately falling to a 4-2 defeat to Aberdeen at Fir Park.’

Players can check their tickets online by downloading the National Lottery app or at national-lottery.co.uk or check tickets

Players can check their tickets online by downloading the National Lottery app or at national-lottery.co.uk or check tickets in shops. Checking online means players get an email notification if they win a prize.

However, if the winning ticket is not collected before the deadline of April 28 next year, the prize money plus interest will go towards National Lottery-funded good causes across the UK.

Players have 180 days from the draw to claim the prize if they have a winning ticket. If you have won or believe you had you should call the National Lottery on 0333 234 5050 or email [email protected].

Those who do no have the ticket but believe they have a genuine claim to the prize can make it by contacting Camelot within 30 days of the draw.
