Advantages: Check Results. Play Games. Winnings Added Straight To Your Account. Play By Text. Easy To Use

Disadvantages: Very Easy To Go Through Money Quickly

National-lottery.co.uk is the official website of the National Lottery. It is where you can find out all the results for any of the National Lottery Games. Also you can create an account, add a credit or debit card & play the games online.

The website is very simple to use & easy to navigate. It has all the standard lottery games like Euro Millions & Thunder Ball, plus it also has lots of instant win games (think of them as online scratchcards). These range in price from low amounts like 50p to high amounts like £4. To help you manage your money & not develop a gambling problem, it will only let you add £350 per week & always reminds you how much you have added & spent recently.

Another great aspect is the ability to add a mobile phone & play the lottery by text message. This means that if you have forgotten to play or even if you are out of the country, you can send a text message to the website & as long as funds are in your account, your numbers will be played.

The only downside for me is the ease at which you can play the instant win games. You could quite easily lose £100 in an hour if you played game after game. I think that they ought to put some sort of limit on this that's a bit lower than £350 a week which is more than some people on low income earn in a week! I know that this is all down to Willpower on behalf of the individual, but some people need help.

I would recommend the website to anyone who plays the lottery regularly & wants to be able to play without queuing in a shop or sometimes forget & remember at 7.25 p.m. & dont have enough time to get to the shops.

Summary: A great website that makes playing the lottery easy & simple. Maybe a little too easy
