You can also scan your retail tickets on the National Lottery app to check if you're a winner. The lucky winner is now urged to log into their National Lottery account and to then call the National Lottery Line on 0333 234 5050 in order to make a claim.

When the ticket holder has called the National Lottery operator Allwyn and the claim has been validated a paid, the ticket holder will then decide whether or not to go public. There is no information about whether the winner is an individual or a group unless the ticket holder decides to go public.
