A National Lottery millionaire has just days to claim a lottery ticket that was drawn back in January and bought in the North Kesteven area.

The winner’s numbers came up in a draw on Tuesday, January 17. They have been sitting on a ticket worth £1 million and the deadline to claim the winnings is on July 16.

The Millionaire Maker code printed on the winning ticket is VRMS 13842. The ticket holder has until July 16 to claim their winnings.

Unclaimed prize money goes towards National Lottery-funded projects across the UK.

Anyone who has any queries or who believes they have the winning ticket for any of the National Lottery draws within the 180-day deadline should call the National Lottery Line on 0844 338 7551 or email [email protected].

Andy Carter, Senior Winners’ Advisor at The National Lottery said previously: “We’re desperate to find this mystery ticket-holder and unite them with their winnings – this amazing prize could really make a huge difference to somebody’s life.

“Being able to guarantee four UK millionaires every week with EuroMillions UK Millionaire Maker is fantastic and we’re urging everyone who bought a EuroMillions ticket in this area to check their old tickets again or look anywhere a missing ticket could be hiding, so that this prize can turn someone into the newest member of the lottery millionaire club.

“Try checking in the pockets of clothing, in wallets, bags and down the back of the sofa. We have the champagne on ice and our fingers crossed that the lucky winner comes forward to claim their win.”
