If , like me you applied for one of these (e111 replacement) when they first came out, they are only valid for 5 years and mine expires may '09
You can renew on-line (see below)

Renewed mine yesterday and guess what, it cost a tenner. Another bloody tax. They don't miss a trick.

Apparently you used the wrong site.
Anyone needing to obtain or renew should use the NHS link given by Tony (mister psycho) above - it's free.

Don't forget your travel insurance when you come over though as the state only pays 60 to 70% of costs here so you have to stump up the rest - even with an EHIC.

I thought I would check mine and guess what, it expires 2 weeks before this years annual pilgrimage.
Yes the link does go to the NHS Page where there is a link to renew for FREE
Cheers folks

Looks like you've been scammed!
Better keep a check on your statements.

My oldest got caught by one of these agency sites when he booked the theory part of his driving test, paid about £15 over the odds.
Cheap for a lesson in life!
But why do government agencies allow other websites to do this? They are surporting a scam. >:(

Good spot thank you - mine expires the day after planned travel to get there!

Yup, it's a scam and I fell for it. This is who I used. Don't use them it will cost you a tenner.

If I had read the statement at the bottom of their page I would have used an official site ::)

Watch out too if you happen to be travelling to the States. There are numerous sites that will charge you for applying for a visa waiver (ESTA) on your behalf but it is free if you go via the official site of the US Customs and Border Protection Agency here: https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov/esta/esta.html?_flowExecutionKey=_c4B13883D-0384-D4AB-1228-2BC1DC3D3C9A_kB78AC067-F363-E140-F70C-51FE803DFEAA

Step 4 is "Make Payment".
I pretty sure this is the site we used a few months back and there is a charge.

Just renew mine and it was free. Good shout and when mister psycho's runs out in 5 years, he'll be able to prompt us all again. Bonus ;D

Stu,
The ESTA thing is new it's for travel to the USA. Untill a few months ago you could just fill out a via waiver for but now you have to do this stupid ESTA thing.

I'm getting my wires crossed. I'm on about the european thing. The ESTA thing was free until last Spetember where as now you have to cough $14.

Oops, sorry Tom et. al. You're correct of course. The last time I applied was back in Augist 2010 and it was free at the time. Sorry for any confusion caused.
