Texas Lottery Commission votes to ban lottery couriersReply
I'd like to reiterate that banning couriers will not solve the problem. Jackpots have been purchased by a large group (buying all the combinations) without couriers before. Have you read our investigation ? Highly recommend you give it a read for more clarity, it also explains how a buyout was accomplished without the help of a courier and how they are being punished when there is actually a simple fix for it.

Lottery courier sues Texas Lottery to block courier banReply
If I'm not mistaken, all Texas lottery games can be played online via their app. Why would someone even need to use a third-party lottery courier? According to one article, the ticket was purchased in Texas for a New Jersey entity. So that means an out of state player one the grand prize? Doesn't seem fair to anyone else living in Texas.

Bill banning lottery courier services passes Indiana House and SenateReply
This is completely stupid. It's like throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Courier services have an important role to play. If you don't like them, regulate them. What is next, banning the lottery? Really, really dumb.

Lotto Texas winner sues betting company and couriers, claims he was cheated out of $100M jackpotReply
Exactly. Texas (all involved entities) needs to pay the prior winner that used a courier service and get their own internal debate and investigation done with and make some decisions going forward. They are all looking like a disorganized mess.

How does one trust a courier service when buying a lotto ticket that could be worth millions? Personally if I were to play, I want the actual ticket/tickets in my hand.

Lotto Texas $83.5 million jackpot winner says she was denied payoutReply
Thanks Todd. With courier services is one just sent a screenshot of the ticket? How does one know that a real ticket purchase was made? And what is the visual proof to the lottery?

Lotto Texas $83.5 million jackpot winner says she was denied payoutReply
Am I following this story correctly? 1. The winner is not part of an effort to buy a massive amount of tickets? 2. This courier was not barred at that time? 3. It was not illegal to use courier services when she purchased the ticket? It sounds a bit like they are trying to create an ex post facto law.
