Winner Misses Out Despite Citywide Hunt

Despite an intense search across Birmingham and beyond, the lucky ticket holder never stepped forward to claim the life-changing cash.

“It’s unfortunate that despite an extensive search for the would-be-millionaire across Birmingham and the UK, I can confirm that the ticket-holder did not come forward within the deadline to claim their prize and has now sadly missed out on this life-changing sum of money.” – Andy Carter, Senior Winners’ Advisor, The National Lottery
