National Lottery players urged to check tickets as deadline for FIVE British millionaires to claim prizes looms
Five lucky National Lottery winners are being urged to check their tickets and claim their £1 million prizes before time runs out.
The millionaires-in-waiting have yet to come forward, with one jackpot remaining unclaimed for 150 days.
The National Lottery has issued an urgent appeal as the winners face losing their life-changing sums forever if they miss their respective deadlines.
Winners have just 180 days from their winning draw to claim their prizes, with the most pressing deadline falling on March 2.
The unclaimed tickets were purchased in Lambeth, Bury, Swansea, Buckinghamshire and Wiltshire.
The most urgent case involves a EuroMillions ticket purchased in the London Borough of Lambeth on September 3, 2024.
This lucky winner has until March 2 to claim their £1 million prize with numbers: MMVJ92833.
The Lambeth ticket holder faces the most pressing deadline of all the outstanding claims.
