Another thing to do is check the wards for currently available plots and check their placards. It could be the plot you bid on has not yet been claimed.

You may want to take a screenshot or write down the plot/ward number when you enter in the future.
Thank you for your suggestions, I already opened a ticket and received a nice answer but no solution for the problem. But it is good to know that I am not alone with this.
Checking the free plots was my first idea, I had still hope that I have won the lottery.
In the near future I will stay away from the lottery, it is not good for my mental health, the constant hope-disappointment cycle and now losing a big part of my gil. My apartment must be enough for me. But you can be sure, when I enter again, I will have the plot number written all over my desktop.
