National Lottery continues to urge Telly Bingo players to check their tickets for €45,075 prize

The National Lottery has confirmed that the Lotto Plus 2 winner who scooped €250,000 in the Saturday 5th August draw has come forward and arrangements are now being made for them to claim their top prize amount. The Laois player purchased their winning ticket at Centra on the Dublin Road in Portlaoise. 

Meanwhile, the National Lottery is continuing to appeal to Telly Bingo players in the county to check their old tickets from Friday 14th July as a Snowball prize worth €45,075 remains unclaimed.   

The winning ticket was purchased on Tuesday 4th July at Dunnes Stores in the Kyle Shopping Centre on James Fintan Lalor Avenue in Portlaoise.  

Players are being reminded that ticketholders have 90 days from the date of the draw to claim their prize which means that the claim deadline for this prize is close of business on Thursday 12th October.    

A National Lottery spokesperson has urged all Telly Bingo players who may have purchased their ticket for the Friday 14th July draw at Dunnes Stores in the Kyle Shopping Centre to check their tickets very carefully as one player now has a ticket worth €45,075.
