Tax : HRMC (possibly over/under payment)

What's the best address / contact to query with HRMC as I think I may have been overpaying my tax?

I used this calculator
http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/tax-calculator/

After entering my figures backdating to 2003 for grosspay/tax codes I work out I've overpaid by approx £1200
