Just two weeks left for Mullingar player to claim prize

The National Lottery is today issuing an urgent appeal to any Lotto 5-4-3-2-1 players in the Mullingar area of Westmeath as a top prize worth €40,000 from Saturday’s 1st of April draw remains unclaimed.

The winning ticket was purchased on the day of the draw, April 1, at Top Oil Service Station, Longford Road, Mullingar, located across from Mullingar Hospital.

The player correctly matched five out of the seven winning numbers in the Lotto Plus 1 draw that evening to scoop the €40,000 prize.

Ticketholders have 90 days from the date of the draw to claim their prize which means that the Westmeath winner has just TWO weeks left to claim their prize. The claim deadline for this prize is close of business on Friday June 30.
