Letter from HMRC- In Maiden name

in Cutting tax
Hi all,
I had a letter from HMRC arrive on my door yesterday that seemed odd for a couple of reasons,
1) It was addressed to me in my maiden name (got married in Nov 2012)
2) It was asking me to check my tax credits - I don't claim anything
3) I think (I have to check) that the reference code for my employer is from my old job that I left over 2 years ago.
I've been paying the correct tax in my current job and haven't had anything like this delivered before now.
I plan to contact them to clear up what's been sent but I do so with trepidation that they may tell me I owe them money and I wondered if anyone had heard of something similar happening to them?

Some times you have to hold back to go forward to where you want to be.

Did you inform HMRC of your change of name?
