The National Lottery has confirmed that it is still waiting to hear from the winner of a Lotto jackpot worth €6.4 million.
The winning Quick Pick ticket was purchased at the Applegreen service station just off the M6/N6 motorway in the Arcadia Retail Park in Athlone, Co Westmeath on May 22.
The win marked the start of a three-in-a-row sweep of Lotto jackpot wins over the past three Saturdays.
The Lotto winner joins the Cork and Galway winners from recent weeks, who have both come forward to collect their winnings.
The Rebel County winner purchased their €2,469,871 winning ticket for the May 29 draw in O’Connell’s Foodstore in Myrtleville.
An online player in Galway won last Saturday's Lotto jackpot of €2,475,303.
A National Lottery spokesperson said: “It’s been an exciting few weeks for Lotto players all over the country with three jackpots won over the course of the last three weekends. Could tomorrow night’s draw bring this total to four?
“We are continuing to urge all of our players in Westmeath to check their tickets carefully from the 22nd May draw.
“The lucky ticket holder is advised to sign the back of their ticket and to make contact with our prize claims team on 1800 666 222 or claims@lottery.ie and arrangements will be made for the winner to collect their life-changing prize.”
The National Lottery reminds people that almost 30 cent of every €1 spent on all National Lottery games goes back to Good Causes in the areas of sport, youth, health, welfare, education, arts, heritage, and the Irish Language.
More than €6 billion has been raised for Good Causes since the National Lottery was established 34 years ago.
In 2020 alone, €254 million was raised for local Good Causes in communities across Ireland.
