National Lottery issues fresh appeal over Athlone's unclaimed €6.4 million ticket

The National Lottery has this evening (Friday) confirmed that the €6.4 million winning Lotto ticket which was sold in Athlone last month has still not been claimed.

It issued a press statement a short time ago in a fresh appeal to Lotto players in the area to check their tickets.

The winning Quick Pick ticket for the draw on Saturday, May 22, was purchased two days earlier at the Applegreen service station just off the M6/N6 motorway in the Arcadia Retail Park.

A National Lottery spokesperson said: "We are continuing to urge all of our players in Westmeath to check their tickets carefully from the May 22 draw.

"The lucky ticket holder is advised to sign the back of their ticket and to make contact with our prize claims team on 1800 666 222 or claims@lottery.ie and arrangements will be made for the winner to collect their life-changing prize."
