The clock is really ticking for a mystery local lottery winner in the London Borough of Ealing who has just over a month left to claim an amazing EuroMillions prize worth £66,729.80.
The last-ditch search is still on to find the owner of the winning ticket who matched the five main numbers and one Lucky Star number in the EuroMillions draw on 19 August 2022. The missing ticket was bought in the London Borough of Ealing and the winning EuroMillions numbers on that date were 2, 9, 13, 19, 38 and the Lucky Star numbers were 2 and 6. The lucky ticket-holder only has until 15 February 2023 to claim their prize1.
Camelot’s Andy Carter, Senior Winners’ Advisor at The National Lottery, said, “Time really is running out for the winner of this prize, but we are still hopeful that someone will come forward at the very last minute to claim the money. What a way to start the new year it would be if the ticket-holder were to come forward.
“We’re urging everyone to check their old tickets one final time – the easiest way to do this is via the National Lottery app – or look anywhere a missing EuroMillions ticket could be hiding. This life-changing prize could really help to make dreams become a reality for someone out there.”
Players can check their tickets online by downloading the National Lottery app or at national-lottery.co.uk. Players can also buy and check tickets in retail.

If you have the winning ticket call the National Lottery Line on 0333 234 5050 to claim.
If no-one comes forward with the winning ticket before the prize claim deadline, then the prize money, plus all the interest it has generated, will go to help National Lottery-funded projects across the UK. By playing any National Lottery game, players generate more than £30M each week for National Lottery-funded projects. This money helps support everything from the local charity making a difference where you live through to helping our nation’s athletes win medals at last summer’s Commonwealth Games. To date, £47BN has been raised for National Lottery Good Causes, with more than 670,000 individual grants awarded.
With all National Lottery draws, players have 180 days from the day of the draw to claim their prize if they have the winning ticket. 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 0333 234 5050 or email [email protected]
