Lotto players in Limerick are being urged to check their tickets after one lucky player won the €250,000 Lotto Plus 2 top prize in the Easter Saturday draw.
A National Lottery spokesperson confirmed the winning Quick Pick ticket was sold at the Centra store in the Woodview Shopping Centre in Moylish, Old Cratloe Road on the outskirts of Limerick City.
The winning numbers in last night’s Lotto Plus 2 draw were: 13, 14, 16, 27, 34, 35 and the Bonus was 06.
The Limerick winner, who now has a ticket worth €250,000 is advised to sign the back of their ticket and keep it safe.
The spokesperson said: “The winner should contact 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 prize.”
Meanwhile, the National Lottery has confirmed that it has fully resolved the technical issue which affected a small number of players at the weekend from winning big.
The problems were occurring when customers attempted to purchase tickets in retail stores with a playslip and were selecting a combination of Quick Pick and Manual panel selections.
In a statement a spokesperson said: “The vast majority of our customers did not experience any difficulties when purchasing their tickets and no customers were charged for selections which were not processed correctly.
“Once alerted to the issue, we immediately engaged with our relevant IT service suppliers to restore full functionality to our systems, and we can confirm that all terminals which were temporarily affected are now fully operational.
“We again apologise for any inconvenience caused.”
