If someone from the states wins using Prime ticket and think they can be anonymous they are kidding themselves. This is the biggest cash prize ever and way bigger than any prize ever offered in Europe. Personally I think I can handle the heat if I win.

After all you do have all that money to console you.

No, I don't think they do. I'm fairly certain they have people stationed in the UK who do that. Feel free to ask them directly, though.

I always wondered if a service like PTS would avoid the publicity with a large jackpot winning ticket.Todd, do you know if PTS buys the EM tickets online (as some people of stated)? I would think they have people in England to do that. I would think buying online could complicate things.Thanks,Stars

Chewie,You're 100% correct. Almost every time there HAS been an online winner, that's what happens. And don't anyone kid themselves, there HAVE BEEN winners online. But, as Chewie says, the majority of them kept their mouth shut, and made it easy on themselves.I know of at least two online winners in the USA who DID tell lottery officials that they won using an online service. Both of them were paid the jackpot in the end, but they could have made it easier on themselves if they just said th... [ More ]

I think the question of never hearing about a winner on the internet doesn't preclude it having happened or will happen. Scenerio, I win the Florida lottery via a on-line betting site. There are hundreds of legal problems that could pop up and make me a criminal. Suppose the site paid my way to Florida and explained the hazzards of hoinesty and convinced me to say I bought the ticket at the same place the on-line betting is done? Additionally, supposed the prise is $20 million. Would I lie... [ More ]

May I suggest to those whom are hestitant on using an online service. Research and ask lots of questions through that service site. Its unfortunate that some make inaccurate assumptions without doing their homework. Todd wouldnt advocate a site without making sure that 1: its legitimate and legal. and 2: ease of use for purchasing.The PTS has clearly marked its responsibilities to you as a winner or claimant of a prize. Read the fine print and make your decision based on facts and not *opinions

I don't know how many tickets they get a week. That would be a good question to ask them directly. In any case, I have research many such companies, and in fact, I only recommended them after investigating all the companies I could locate, over an eight month timeframe. I play using their service myself, if that gives any indication.

Everyone who saw tozzi's message (which I deleted) should be aware that it was really posted by some annoying person from Jackson, NJ who signed up as Mike T last time. I had disabled their Mike T account, so I guess they feel they have the right to keep signing up under different names and trying to slam PTS. (As every knowledgeable member of Lottery Post knows by now, these types of people show up from time to time, either because they hold a grudge against something or someone, or bec... [ More ]

Korean Redneck, I think people here are talking about using a ticket purchasing company like Prime Ticket Service. Personally I feel safer going to my local store for 2 reasons. (1) I am in possession of the actual ticket and (2) I am using only the cash I can afford, not a credit card. I've never read about anyone winning a large jackpot from an online service and I'm an internet junkie. Maybe they're very honest, but if you did win millions you'd have to depend on the service to pay up, sinc... [ More ]

Yes, I'm using them for Euro-millions. It's cheaper than flying there. Sure it's expensive at $5 but the tickets are 2.50 in England. As far as wheither I trust them, then yes. I think that they use the UK website to buy the tickets so there are no physical tickets to deal with. Plus I just play my own numbers so I can just check myself to see if I won. They had problems with the billing system but it works fine now. I get my own powerball and megamillions tickets but if I were in Europe and Meg... [ More ]

Depends what you win. Win the EuroMillion Biggie, next week, and some one will loan you the airfare. The passport is you problem. If you can't figure out how to get a loan, based on a $180M winning ticket, send me the ticket. I'll do it for you and send you the remains.

If you look at the left side of this screen, you'll see the choices. They're in the green box.

I guess it could happen, and by all means it should! But since I live where I can purchase PP tickets and drive 40 miles one-way to get my MM tickets, I don't have to buy lottery tickets online, with one exception the Euro Millions. And if I hit that jackpot, I'll be buying all my tickets online, because I'll be on the move until I choose where I'd like to live the rest of my life

Yes I think there will be an internet winner soon. ME This Friday's drawing for Euromillions!! LOL just kidding around. But I think it will happen sooner or later if the lottery keeps trying to let people play lotto's online.

Chewie — Thu, 26 Jan 2006 23:33:59 GMT

I chose yes, because, sooner or later, the net will become one of the primary betting places. Thus, sooner or later, a winner has to be from the internet. You didn't put a timeline on the question. Might be 50 years, but it will happen.

I get tickets on line. When will I win . But I do think the internet purchased ticket will win vary soon
