Lottery winner faces eviction after Tesco refuses payout in UK
A lottery winner, Kevin Layne, 63, is facing homelessness after Tesco refused to pay out his £140 prize. Instead, he bought a meal deal and claims he was banned from the store. His landlord has since issued an eviction notice. Kevin, who has severe asthma, struggles to find new housing due to a lack of references and a permanent job. He has approached Wyre Forest Council for help but reports no response. He has moved his belongings into storage as he prepares for potential homelessness. Previously living abroad, Kevin returned to the UK four years ago. He has rented a room in a shared house for three years but now faces eviction. Tesco's policy allows payouts up to £100, but Kevin's situation highlights issues with prize claims and housing support.
