A EuroMillions UK Millionaire Maker prize from December 27 last year remains unclaimed. The winning ticket, with prize code XDQM 36414, was bought in Wiltshire. The winner, who has not come forward, has until Wednesday, June 25, to claim the prize.
The National Lottery operator, Allwyn, has launched a final appeal to find the ticket-holder. Andy Carter, senior winners’ advisor, urged players to carefully check their tickets. “We are quickly approaching the deadline,” he said, “but the winner has not yet contacted us despite many appeals.”
Carter stressed that there is still time, with one month left to claim the prize. “We have seen valid claims made right up to the last minute before,” he added. “Time is running out for this missing winner.”
He encouraged EuroMillions players to take five minutes to check their tickets. “That small effort could make you a millionaire,” he said. “It was cold when the ticket was bought, so check your coat pockets. Think about if you live, work, or were visiting friends or family in Wiltshire around Christmas. You might even have just been passing through.”
All winners have 180 days from the draw date to claim prizes. If unclaimed, the money and any interest will be used for National Lottery-funded projects across the UK.
Players can check tickets online using the National Lottery app or at national-lottery.co.uk. Retail tickets can also be checked in stores or scanned with the app. Carter added, “Playing online means your ticket is automatically checked, and you get an email if you win.”
The National Lottery is ready to celebrate the winner, with “champagne on ice,” hoping for that life-changing phone call soon.
