TL;DR of that MSN article:

A British couple thought they had won a £35 million National Lottery jackpot — choosing the winning numbers — but they didn’t actually get any money because their ticket never successfully went through. Their online purchase failed due to insufficient funds in their bank account, so the ticket wasn’t entered into the draw at all. Because only validly purchased tickets are entered, there was no prize to claim despite matching all the winning numbers. (News Minimalist)

👉 Basically: no ticket = no win, even if those were the winning numbers. (News Minimalist)

If you want a bit more context about how this sort of thing happens or how winners are normally contacted/paid, I can add that too.
