I have mine here - on the back are all the numbers (different to the old one).
It says 'No. 8 - Identification no. of the card' which is a 20-digit number.
PPSN is I think 'personal identification no.', which in my case is UK followed by 8 digits.
Hope that helps :)

I have just looked at my old European Health Insurance Card (EHIC), Vic.

The card ID is the 19 digit number on the last line on the back - try inserting it without spaces. I think, though not sure, that the PPSN is for cards issued in Eire. However the card PIN is on the same line as your D.O.B. I think that is more likely to be the number needed.

ETA exactly as Di says.

Just been on the site. For renewals the two numbers needed are NI number and PIN number.
