The lucky South Gloucestershire winner of a \u00a31 million Lotto<\/a> jackpot is running out of time to claim their prize, with the deadline set for three weeks from now.<\/p>\n

The National Lottery<\/a> has called on players in the South West of England to \u201cdouble-check\u201d all of their typical blind spots for the pink ticket drawn for the November 1 draw \u2014 including wallets, pockets and halloween costumes. The draw happened one day after All Hallows’ Day last year, but the money still remains unclaimed.<\/p>\n

Andy Carter, senior winners advisor at lottery operator Allywn, said: \u201cWe\u2019re calling on players who may have bought a ticket in South Gloucestershire for the Lotto draw on Saturday 1 November last year to check their tickets.<\/p>\n

\u201cDo you live in South Gloucester or were you in and around the area in the week leading up to the draw? It\u2019s our job to track down our missing millionaire and unite the lucky winner with their prize money. Just imagine how this six-figure win could change your life.\u201d<\/p>\n

The winning numbers were 17, 18, 31, 36, 39, 51 and the Bonus ball number was 29.<\/p>\n

The unclaimed ticket will be withdrawn on April 30, meaning that heat is on for the six-figure-win before the prize is redistributed to the National Lottery\u2019s \u201cgood causes\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDouble-check any places you may have stashed your pink ticket \u2013 any safe spots, an old wallet or even the pocket of a winter coat you haven\u2019t worn in a while. This draw was just after Halloween, could it be stashed in your costume?\u201d<\/p>\n

Players can buy and check their tickets online by downloading the National Lottery app or at national-lottery.co.uk <\/a>. Retail tickets can also be scanned on the National Lottery app.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"There is a missing millionaire after the Lotto draw, and lottery operator Allywn has encouraged Brits to look…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":529668,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[183480,226,3964,84,59,2673,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-529667","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-business","8":"tag-andy-carter","9":"tag-apps","10":"tag-betting","11":"tag-business","12":"tag-gb","13":"tag-national-lottery","14":"tag-uk","15":"tag-united-kingdom","16":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/529667","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=529667"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/529667\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/529668"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=529667"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=529667"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=529667"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
