Lotto: Brits urged to check tickets as a National Lottery player scoop £3.9m | UK | News
A lucky person managed to win the huge sum of £3.9 million in the National Lottery Lotto draw. One lucky player has managed to win a life-changing sum by winning tonight’s jackpot, according to the National Lottery.
In tonight’s Lotto draw, the numbers 15, 16, 23, 32, 42, 46 and the number 52 were seen as bonus balls. Players need all six main numbers to win the jackpot, with matching just two yielding a small prize and matching five winnings around £2,000.
The Thunderball results were 6, 13, 17, 19, 38 with Thunderball coming in at number 1 and a grand prize of £500,000 was offered to each winner. In addition to the main draws, one player won £1 million by matching five numbers plus a bonus ball, 67 other players won £1,750 each by matching five numbers, and many more collected smaller prizes.
If you think you’ve won a prize, you can follow the step-by-step guide on how to claim the prize.
However, the winner must first contact the National Lottery by phone to register their winnings and arrange a date and time to claim their prize.
Raffle game prizes must be claimed within 180 days of the drawing unless you use the procedure that allows claims up to seven days after the deadline.
Instant Win Game prizes must also be claimed within 180 days of purchase, while Scratch Card prizes must be claimed within 180 days of the game’s closing date. If a retailer is unable to pay for a winning ticket valued between £100.01 and £500, you are advised to visit another National Lottery store to claim your prize.
Meanwhile, the British man who won the £10.6 million lottery jackpot has now lost his chance to get this jackpot.
National Lottery operator Allwyn has confirmed that no valid claims have been made for tickets worth £10,633,323 purchased for the draw in the London borough of Bexley on Saturday 4 October 2025.
The deadline for the winner to come forward (180 days after the draw) has passed at midnight on Thursday, April 2, meaning the prize will no longer be up for grabs.
