August's Unclaimed Lottery Prizes
Last Updated: Tuesday 6th September 2011, 13:59
With each month that goes by in the UK, another round of life-changing lottery prizes could be going to charity, where for whatever reason, lottery winners have not come forward in time to claim their prizes. August’s unclaimed lottery prizes list is a long one, and so here’s a reminder to check those old lottery tickets and make sure you don’t have the winning Lotto or Euromillions results on an old lottery ticket.
This August there are three lottery prizes to be added to the good causes fund if unclaimed before the deadlines. Each of these unclaimed lottery prizes is for the UK Lotto draw, so let’s take a look where the winners are from and see if we can jog some memories.
The first Lotto ticket in question was sold in the London Borough of Bexley and matched five main balls and the bonus on 5th February UK Lotto draw. This winner only has two more days to come forward (August 4th) or the £191,303 prize will be given to charity.
Next up is a Lotto ticket sold in the Mid Glamorgan area of South Wales. This ticket was sold for the 19th February UK Lotto draw and is worth £82,573 after matching five main balls and the bonus. If this ticket holder doesn’t come forward before 18th August, this prize will be given to charity.
Finally a lottery ticket sold in the Kingston Upon Hull area of the UK, this ticket also matched five main balls and the bonus but in the 26th February Lotto draw. The ticket is worth £132,821 and must be claimed before August 25th.
Now none of these prizes are jackpots, but they are all fairly large sums of money. However, time is running out for the winners so it’s time to double check all your old lottery tickets now!
