Owner of €1 million lotto ticket has until 5pm tomorrow to claim their cash

The ticket was sold in Cork on 21 December.

THE WINNER OF the €1 million National Lottery Christmas Millionaire Raffle has less than 24 hours left to claim their prize.

The deadline is 5pm tomorrow.

The ticket was bought at the Topaz Service Station on Lower Tivoli Road in Cork on 21 December 2016.

Ticketholders have 90 days from the date of the draw to claim their prize in person at National Lottery Headquarters on Abbey Street in Dublin.

In August of last year, a lucky Cork family syndicate claimed a €381,863 EuroMillions Prize just one hour before the prize claim deadline following an extensive media campaign.

National Lottery Chief Executive Dermot Griffin said:

With just hours left to go until the deadline we would urge all National Lottery players to check in their homes and cars for any misplaced Millionaire Raffle tickets purchased just before Christmas last year, and ask all players to remind anyone that they might have bought a raffle ticket for as a Christmas present to also check their tickets.

The ticket number is 179740.

The National Lottery is advising players to check their tickets. If you’re the ticketholder, sign the back of the ticket and contact the National Lottery Prize Claims Team on 01 836 4444.

    Holy god what is going on when women and men like these are going missing and no one spots them in distress or looking whithered and weather beaten? If you see someone who looks old and looks lost ask them are they ok or say hello.
    People need to open their fecking eyes. Prevention better than cure.
    I hope she is found safe and well please god. Thoughts prayers with her and her family X
