" Sometimes, I go in and try and play TRIPLE number and the cashier says, "That number is blocked or locked out!" Give me freaking break!!" why is this I wonder? NC Lottery
For any number combination we are only able to sell a certain number of tickets. If you want to guarantee you can use your number combination,the earlier you get your tickets the better off you'll be.

If you get a winning email what does the email say that it comes from a lot of my stuff goes to spam and I'm always worried I'm not going to see it probably will never be that lucky lol but just in case I feel like entering 50 times for the weekly Wednesdays and never when I don't really have much luck lol but just in case I thought I should find out. NC Lottery
We notify winners by phone and by email. We'll do everything we can to make sure you know you're a winner.

You can call me a sore loser. Well, here it goes! I used to like NCEL. Over the years, I haven't won anything. I buy Zillions of scratch offs and I play the Picks 3, 4 and Cash 5 games and I never win. I am beginning to think the NCEL is rigged. Sometimes, I go in and try and play TRIPLE number and the cashier says, "That number is blocked or locked out!" Give me freaking break!! And, to add insult to injury, I play the $20 and $30 scratches and it's disappointing to find a (2, 5, 10, 100 etc, and you find $1, 2 or 5 underneath) Such a scam! Lastly, when in the heck is maintenance performed on the drawing ball machines. As you can tell I am not a fan of any of the drawing representatives you have on TV. They all need to get lost!

When a person wins a 1000.00 scratch off ticket how much does that person get after the taxes? Is it true that state and federal taxes are taken out at the time of cashing in the ticket and the lottery commission investigates the ticket for 3 to 4 weeks before paying off the ticket? i was told that you only get 790.00 of the 1000.00 NC Lottery
For prizes of $600 to $5,000 we withhold state taxes of 5.75 percent. For prizes over $5,000 we withhold 25% federal tax and 5.75% state tax. We do make sure each ticket claim is valid and in the majority of cases it's a fairly quick process.

Thnx 4 the quick response. That's a nice incentive to enter this contest b4 the deadline, just for $hitz and giggles. Watch out Ricky Bobby, Turbo is about to enter victory lane. If I win I'll make sure the tickets if not used by myself will go to a worthy cause.

2/23/2016 12:52 - Denver G.

Do you know the total cash value of each of the 2 top packages??? NC Lottery
The estimated cash value for the grand marshal prize package is $3,367. For the honorary starter prize package it's $2,138.

I need some help here. I was locked out since Friday and according to the message to wait 23 hours, so just a few minutes ago I called the on line support and they can not help me. She kept on taking me to the a site online and it did not do anything but put me back to the page of table of contents, she kept on telling me there will be a line for feed back, but I did not see any of a kind. Can somebody help me to put me back to doing my ticket entry again....really appreciate any help. thank you very much...the on line support is on help at all, just kept on telling me to go there and nothing happened...thank you very much....

NASCAR rocks

2/18/2016 06:09 - Tony T.

Hey, what did Jean say ?! :) Turbo, personally I don't want to waste my ticket points on the $500 drawings but... I don't enter as many tickets here as a lot of others do either. Each one I enter I kind of save up for the chances of bigger prizes because I need a LOT more than $500.00 for things like health insurance, utility bills, home improvements, groceries, etc. $ 500 would be nice but $2,500.. or more.. would be so much of a bigger help to my family and myself.

2/18/2016 03:32 - Denver G.

I think it is great that the NCEL gives us all a chance to win in these 2nd chance drawings. If things are not set in stone months in advance, why not change things up a bit . Let there be more $500 (tax free) winners a week, every week. Do away with the monthly $25,000 & 5 for $2500. Just pick 10-12 $500 winners every week. What do you think LZ? What do you think players? If you think it is a good idea, make a comment! Maybe The NCEL and the LZ will listen.

2/18/2016 03:00 - Guy R.

Love nascar lives in Charlotte N.C. this would be a dream come true if we won..

I lost my father eleven years ago and he was a diehard NASCAR fan for as long as I can remember. I still miss going to visit him on Sunday and seeing him all into a race; any race! If I were to win, I would use the opportunity to honor his passion. Thanks
