Ireland’s latest Lotto jackpot winner is advised to sign the back of their ticket and to keep them safe. The lucky Wexford winner should make contact with the National Lottery prize claims team on 1800 666 222 or email claims@lottery.ie, and arrangements will be made for them to claim their prizes.

A National Lottery spokesperson said: “Wednesday night was certainly life-changing for one of our lucky players in Wexford who now has a Lotto ticket worth over €5.6 million in their possession.

"This morning, we are appealing with all of our players in Wexford to check their tickets carefully and if you are the winner, sign the back of the ticket and make contact with our prize claims team as soon as possible.

"This latest Wexford winner is the 6th Lotto jackpot winner of the year and the 21st National Lottery millionaire of 2022.”

The news comes after National Lottery winners from Kilkenny, Limerick and Offaly claimed their life-changing prizes worth a combined €2 million on Wednesday.

The biggest winners of the day hailed from Limerick city as a work syndicate picked up an incredible €1 million Lotto prize after they won the Lotto Plus 1 top prize on Saturday, June 18.

The syndicate who bought their winning ticket at the SuperValu store in Castletroy in Limerick city took the day off work to travel to Dublin to collect their massive €1 million Lotto pay-out.

The lucky players who wished to keep their win private admitted that their stroke of good fortune only came about due to a newly formed syndicate.

They said: “The syndicate is only up and running a few months! We just thought it would be a bit of craic but then all of a sudden, we have a cheque for €1 million in our back pocket.

“Because it’s only a new syndicate, not everybody in work actually joined it. I think that might change in the next few days as more people will want to put their names down in case we win again.

“It’s a lovely amount of money to share with your colleagues. It’s not an amount that we’d all leave our jobs for, but it’s enough to make some nice little changes in our lives. We’ve spoken as a group and we all have our own little plans like paying off mortgages, upgrading cars and going on holidays.

“There’s been great excitement for the past week or so and it’s nice to finally get our hands on the cheque so we can start putting all of our plans into reality,” they added.
