Unclaimed Winnings: What Happens if the Euromillions Jackpot is Not Claimed?

September 29, 2023 will undoubtedly become an unforgettable day for the big winner. In a currently unknown region, a person chose the 5 correct numbers, as well as the 2 stars corresponding. In this case, the winning numbers were 9, 11, 13, 21, 32 and the 2 stars on 02 and 07. The lucky girl of the month has now 60 days to claim your winnings announces the FDJ.

What happens if the money is not claimed by the winner

Two possibilities present themselves. If a winner having had all the correct numbers does not claim what he owes, then the FDJ recovers the amount. “We redistribute it to customersin the form of special prize pools, or promotional offers, such as bets offered on our websites” expresses the FDJ at Parisian. In the event that the unobtainable winner does not have all the correct numbers, then the state recovers the money. Public finances were thus able to recover more than 150 million euros this way in 2021.

109 million won a few weeks ago

If the possibility of winning the entire Euromillions is slim (1 chance in 139,838,160 million according to the FDJ), the winner of September 29, 2023 is not an isolated case this month. Just a few days ago, a Breton woman recently made redundant, saw her life drastically turned upside down after winning this time 109 million euros. Between February 13, 2004 and November 10, 2021, EuroMillions counted 518 “big winners”. Among the 9 playing countries, it is the United Kingdom and France which have the most winners, with 114 and 113 winners respectively. The biggest jackpot was won on October 15, 2021 by a French woman living in Tahiti, for the modest sum of 220 million euros.
