  • I also got an entry yesterday but wasn't able to see what it was until this morning. I also do the lottery by Direct Debit but as previously said it used to say Camelot. Haven't had my prize letter yet so will also look out for that. Would be nice to have been informed that any prizes now would have a different description.
  • received today 77£ from prize payment 3.got no idea where this has come from.not from lottery.

    I received a £25 "prize payment 3" today.

    It's from the National Lottery.

    When I logged into my National Lottery account online, it tells me I've won £25 in the last draw and my bank account's been credited with that amount.

    (Bumping a rather old thread as this was the first result on the search engines, so hope this will be useful to someone else).
  • Noticed PRIZE PAYMENT 3 BGC on my account today and was surprised too. I play by direct debit so it must be National Lottery then. Unfortunately they don't allow me to logon since I'm abroad at the moment.

    So transfer description is still not changed to Camelot.

    So just to complete the thread, I assume "PRIZE PAYMENT 3" means £10 - as in we got 3 balls right?

    You may be right there, I have the same on my account, and found myself here :p

    Mine is for £25, which seems to ring true for the '3' pertaining to the amount of matches!

    It's still the same as of today [27 May 14].

    I've had a bank account for over 30 years, and I've never had money turn up in my account that I don't recognise- what am I doing wrong??

  • Ha, here we are in December and a Google search brought me here! £25 for me. Must be lottery then. Excellent. More please....
