Randaberg, Norwegian Tipping | Have you played the lottery? Then it may be that Norsk Tipping wants to get hold of you

Norsk Tipping writes in a press release on 2 April that the man from Randaberg is one of three winners who have so far not been able to get ahold of him by phone.

– The reason why we want to talk to the winners is that we want to make sure that they are clear about the prize, share our congratulations, as well as share the necessary practical information regarding the account and payment of the prize, says Norsk Tipping.

In addition, the national gaming company also offers financial and legal guidance to winners of larger prizes. The company does this via its partner in the area, Advokatfirmaet Dehn.

In addition to the man from Randaberg, there is also a man from Hamar and a man from Arendal whom Norsk Tipping has not been able to get hold of on the phone.

This is the number from which the call is made

Are you a man, a resident of Randaberg municipality and had a lottery ticket at the weekend? Then it can be worthwhile to pick up the phone, even if it is an unknown number. So it doesn’t have to be a salesperson or a polling company trying to get in touch with you. It could simply be that you have won a million prize. The phone number you should look for is 625 60,000.

In addition to the man from Randaberg, there was also a woman from Sandnes who won in our county.

– I know I have won. I have checked it in the appthe woman told Norsk Tipping when the gambling company got hold of her.

– I didn’t hear the phone last night, as I was sitting in another room watching a film, but when I checked the app later in the evening I was so happy, said the Sandnes woman, who has been betting Lotto for many years.

Small chances – but someone wins

As you know, the chance of winning the Lotto is not great. The theoretical probability of getting seven straight in Lotto is only 1:5.37 million per row (rounded up to 1:5.4 million per row). During the whole of 2023, there were 296 million Lotto wins, of which 152 were ordinary Lotto wins, while 144 were won in the Superdraw.

The super draw on Saturday was the first of the year. There will be three more during 2024, with the first in the summer, while the last two will come in the autumn and at Christmas. The chance of winning in the super draw is approximately 1:5.5 million per row. In other words, the chances are actually quite a bit less here than in ordinary Lotto.

The entire profit for Norsk Tipping goes to good causes. In 2023, for example, over 30,000 teams and organizations across the country were paid a total of NOK 794 million through the grassroots share, which comes from a percentage of what the players play for. The gambling/betting funds, which finance sports facilities, are also well known. This year, a profit of approximately NOK 6.5 billion is expected. You can read how the funds are distributed HERE
