Urgent 'check ticket' warning issued as £1million EuroMillions lottery prize sits unclaimed

On 18 January 2026, the UK National Lottery issued an urgent advisory urging players to check their EuroMillions tickets before the claim deadline, as a £1 million jackpot remains unclaimed. The announcement, posted on GB News, highlighted that if the deadline passes without a successful claim, the lump sum will be donated to charities across the UK. The warning emerged amid growing concern that an unaware winner could miss out on the prize. EuroMillions draws take place twice weekly, but the current unclaimed pot has not yet been claimed by any known holder. Player teams are asked to verify tickets promptly to avoid the prize being redirected to a public cause.
