On Tuesday the 3rd of December in 2019 the winning numbers were 31, 32, 18, 38 and 48 and the two lucky star numbers were 4 and 12. After 3 rollovers someone finally matched all the numbers and won the jackpot. The winning ticket has been sold in the UK and after 2 weeks there were still no feedback from the winner. An announcement was made to encourage players to submit an appeal within 30 days if they lost their ticket. This appeal passed in early January so this means the only way the money can be claimed is if somebody steps forward with the winning ticket. It is certainly uncommon for a big winner to wait 2 weeks to contact the National lottery. Since he has not made any contact the assumption was made that his ticket was discarded and he doesn’t even know that he is a lucky winner of a life changing amount.
The winner has until the 31st of May to come forward otherwise the normal claims procedure will be followed. There will be follow ups done and any claimant that can give details about the exact location and time and the date when the winning ticket was purchased matching the official record will be able to claim. If no claims were made, then the total of £40,957,696.60 will be held in a trust fund and will be given to the good cause fund.
