Sizekhaya Chief Operating Officer Fundi Sithebe shared, “We love winners. We celebrate every big win because we know what it can mean: paying off a bond, starting a business, helping family or finally making a long-held dream come true”.
Given that most winners purchased their tickets through banking apps, players are urged to check for any communication from their respective banks.
Sithebe says the message to players could not be simpler: check your tickets and check your banking apps. Players can also reach out to the Sizekhaya Call Centre on 086 102 6000 or www.nationallottery.co.za
