Hi,
As you are paying voluntary National Insurance contributions from overseas, I can confirm that your 18 Digit Reference Number on your bank transfer is your National Insurance Number followed by IC then your surname and initial.  
Details may be found via:  Make an online or telephone bank transfer.
Thank you.
