More trouble at CT Lottery. Agency cannot process “high-tier” winning tickets.

The state lottery continues to be stumped by technology. The quasi-public agency has announced that it cannot process winning tickets with a prize of $600 to $5,000. The lottery previously told players that the new equipment it required retailers to begin using in May does not always recognize winning tickets when a customer uses the ticket reader available where tickets are sold.

Expiration dates will be extended for valid tickets.
