EHIC CARD

[fruitsalad]

is this card still free or do you now have to pay for it? tia

it's free, don't go to any site where you have to pay. Look for the correct government department on line, official one, and go from there is you need one. So many people have been caught out paying for it, i think it was highlighted on watchdog?

[boxtops]

depends how you apply, it can be free or up to £14.99 http://www.applyehic....pyYra8CFaYJtAodQiICpg

It,s free, but be careful if you google you will see a plethora of sites who will apply on your behalf, for a fee

Please remember this car does NOT entitle you to free medical treatment when travelling

[emmie]

i will look again, and apply again. If i have to pay i won't bother, but to the best of my knowledge you shouldn't have to pay.

You can apply for the card free of charge on the official EHIC website (www.ehic.org.uk). Other unofficial websites may charge you if you apply through them.

Got mine in January 2012, and I did not pay. Nor should you.
