02 Jul Set For Life Win for Lucky Essex Man
A mystery man, known only as Mr. J from Essex, has won £10,000 a month for a year without ever touching a ticket. The lucky man was one of 10 winners who won the same life-changing prize by matching the five main numbers in the Set For Life draw on Monday 15 June.
The lucky man played online on The National Lottery website. Players can check their tickets online at www.national-lottery.co.uk or via the National Lottery App. Playing online via the website or app means that your ticket is checked, and you get an email notification if you win a prize, just like Mr. J did. You can also scan your retail tickets on the National Lottery App to check if you’re a winner.
Mr. J chose a Lucky Dip to play Set For Life, which came up trumps. He has become one of nine million players that win each week on The National Lottery’s range of games.

After a few simple clicks he can now look forward to receiving £10,000 every month for a year – one thing is for this is for sure, it will be a year that he never forgets!”
