A young person who thought she'd stowed an incredible £182million on the EuroMillions was left

crushed to find that she hadn't won anything on the grounds that the installment for her ticket hadn't gone through.

Rachel Kennedy and her sweetheart Liam McCrohan, from Hertfordshire,

had begun arranging their "fantasy" lives when Rachel got a warning to say that her seven lottery numbers were a

"dominating game" back in February 2021.

The couple, who were 19 and 21 at that point, had been playing similar numbers - 6, 12, 22, 29, 33, 6 and 11

- for quite a long time before they were at last attracted the February 26 EuroMillions.

Rachel and Liam were crushed to pass up the £189million bonanza

Yet, their fantasies were torn away from them when they were educated that Rachel needed something more

assets in her record to cover the £2.50 charge so the ticket wasn't bought naturally preceding the draw not surprisingly.

Notwithstanding this, College of Brighton understudy Rachel thought she'd got the enormous bonanza on the grounds that

an error had sent her a notice to tell her she was a victor.

She told The Sun: "I called my beau Liam and my mum into the room and they couldn't accept it either so I was like

, 'good gracious I want to call them'."

The couple had previously begun arranging their fantasy life

They were at first 'large and in charge'

Rachel was at first "large and in charge" and said the grievous news that they wouldn't have been tycoons

was significantly more pulverizing for Liam.

She added: "I called the number reasoning that I had won £182million and they said 'definitely you have the right

numbers however you didn't have the assets in that frame of mind for the installment of the ticket so it didn't really go through'.

"I was large and in charge when I assumed I had won yet when I figured out I hadn't, Liam was more upset than I was."

Liam had proactively been making huge arrangements for their future, he said:

"(Rachel) was very loosened up about it yet I had sort of spent it in my mind as of now.

"I was totally grief stricken when we heard the man on the telephone say we hadn't really purchased the ticket.

I was at that point envisioning our fantasy house and the fantasy vehicle, I assume I was
Getting out of hand to be fair."

Camelot, who have been the administrators of the lottery beginning around 1994,

caught wind of Rachel's story and sent several a "best of luck" message for future draws.

A representative for the organization said:

"We're mindful of Rachel's story and trust she gets in right on time to purchase a ticket for the following large draw."

They added the association wished her "good luck in ongoing draws".

Rachel, presently 21, has since quit utilizing similar numbers since she currently accepts they're really unfortunate.

She said: "I really have two arrangements of numbers that I use. One of them is birthday events of relatives and stuff

, in any case, the ones that were the victor were simply arbitrary numbers that I had clicked one day and had been utilizing from that point onward.

"We're in no way, shape or form going to continue to utilize those numbers currently, I've previously transformed them."
