Woman sues National Lottery operator, claiming she won £1m
A woman is embroiled in a High Court battle over whether National Lottery operator, Camelot, owes her £10 or £1m.
Joan Parker-Grennan sued the company arguing they are"bound" to pay her a six-figure sum, after an Instant Win Game ticket in August 2015 incorrectly stated she had won more than £10. The judge at the High Court in London was told there had been a"technical issue" which resulted in two numbers with a designated prize of £10 being highlighted on Mrs Parker-Grennan's screen, as well as two other matching numbers designated to a £1m prize.
This resulted in"different graphical animations" appearing on the screen, causing Mrs Parker-Grennan's confusion.Mrs Parker-Grennan said there should be a summary judgement - typically made when no defence has been made, or the claimant believes that the defence has no real prospect of success - as Camelot cannot win at a trial.
