National Lottery website and app goes down

UK

The National Lottery says it is investigating after users reported being unable to access its app and website.

Both its website and app appeared to be offline today – a day after the global IT outage led to widespread disruption at airports, businesses, the NHS and broadcasters.

It is unclear if the issues facing the lottery are connected to Friday’s outage.

In a post on X, the National Lottery said: “We are aware that some players are having issues accessing our website and app.

“Apologies for the inconvenience, our team are currently investigating the issue to find out what has happened.”
