Sounds like the Lottery has got its pants in a twist, as the o2 public IP is a UK IP..  Just done this on my o2 phone and it gets a UK IP 

You can check this via https://whatsmyip.org and then pass this information to the Lottery Operator

- Xperia 1V - o2 and Spusu
- Pixel 8 Pro - o2 and Vodafone UK

Are you using a vpn @Fishing1391 ?
