Mystery Surrey woman plans to be mortgage free after £10,000 a month National Lottery win

The lucky winner, known only as Miss C, matched the five main numbers in the Set For Life draw on Monday, March 3.

She was one of two players that won the second-tier prize in the draw, and she plans to use the winnings to pay off her mortgage.

The office manager, who played a Lucky Dip via the National Lottery app, has become one of over nine million players that win each week on the National Lottery’s range of games.

Interactive winners have the opportunity to release their name, remain anonymous, or like this winner, release some details through partial publicity.

Andy Carter, senior winners’ advisor at Allwyn, operator of the National Lottery, said: “What amazing news for Miss C, who has won £10k every month for an entire year and can now be mortgage free.

“Huge congratulations!”
