“National Lottery System Glitch Cost Me My Winnings”

I bought at a powerball ticket in July 2025 . Two weeks later I checked my ticket at SPAR . The results of my check out said Claim receipt. I called the nationa lottery call centre number , the consultant asked for my barcode number of my ticket and gave it ,and she confirmed that it is a winning ticket. I went to national lottery regional office in Sandton. When i got ther I showed them my ticket together with the checkout claim receipt. They said my ticket is not a winning ticket . I asked them to check it their machine , they refused . They showed me the resulst of that draw. My ticket does not match any number of that draw results. They told me that their system had a ****ch during that time of the draw. Every time when I check it , the results of the check out keep saying claim receipt . i checked it several time at different outlet , the checkout results come saying claim receipt.
