EuroMillions players given urgent warning to claim five-figure prize before deadline

The winner will miss out on a huge amount if they miss the cut-off date.

According to the Irish Mirror, the €20,949 prize needs to be claimed by Monday, February 3 - a little over two weeks from now.

The draw occurred on Tuesday, 5 November, and a player in the Swords area of North Dublin is believed to be in possession of the winning ticket.

National Lottery spokesperson Emma Monaghan said: "We are still hoping to hear from a EuroMillions player in Swords who won €20,949 by matching five numbers in the Tuesday, 5th of November draw.

"The winning ticket was purchased at Tuthills Swords, Pavillions Shopping Centre," she added. "As ticket holders have 90 days from the date of the draw to claim their prize, the last date to claim is Monday, 3rd February.

If you’re holding the winning ticket, the National Lottery advises signing the back of it, keeping it somewhere safe and contacting the National Lottery prize claims team as soon as possible on 1800 666 222 or by email at claims@lottery.ie. 

Arrangements will then be made for you to collect your prize at Lottery HQ.

Earlier this week, Irish EuroMillions players in Limerick were told to check their tickets after it was revealed the winning ticket was sold in the county.

The jackpot prize from Tuesday’s draw stands at a staggering €63.8 million and remains unclaimed.
