What happens to unclaimed Set for Life, Euromillions and Lotto prizes?

Three prizes of £10,000 a month for a year could be in your wallet. The second biggest prize in the National Lottery’s Set for Life game was won three times in County Durham.

It is still being determined whether three people chose the same numbers, or if the same ticket was mistakenly purchased multiple times. Thankfully, the lucky ticketholder or ticketholders still has plenty of time to claim their prize, providing they still have the little slip.

If you genuinely believe that you could be the winner but you don’t have the ticket anymore, then it is possible to try to claim. Camelot, the company behind the National Lottery, will listen and investigate any genuine claims made within 30 days of the draw.
