Sales for the evening’s draws closed at 1930 GMT A technical problem has hit UK online sales of lottery tickets, on the night the Euromillions draw had a jackpot worth an estimated £112m.
Connection problems between Camelot’s system and some banks meant sales could not go through between 1845 and 1915 BST, a Camelot spokeswoman said.
She told the BBC: “We do realise it is incredibly frustrating and we can only apologise.”
The Euromillions numbers were 9, 30, 35, 39, 46, with lucky stars 6 and 8.
The spokeswoman said Camelot did not know how many people had been affected by the glitch and added the matter had been “completely out of our hands”.
Sales for Friday evening’s draws closed at 1930 GMT. Sales for Saturday’s Lotto draws continue until Saturday evening.
Euromillions is played in nine countries – the UK, France, Spain, Austria, Belgium, Luxembourg, the Irish Republic, Portugal and Switzerland.
Camelot is the operator for the competition in the UK.
