Tax refund on savings interest

I recently reclaimed the interest on my savings accounts for the tax year 2014/2015 and received a refund from HMRC. Unfortunately, I missed out two separate savings accounts that had been closed. The interest from these accounts doesn't take my over the personal allowance but does mean I haven't received the tax back on them? This amounts to about £280 As I've already have had a refund for 2014/2015 am I too late to do anything?

Thank you

    :p Regular savers earn 6% interest (HSBC, First Direct, M&S) :p Loans cost 2.9% per year (Nationwide) = FREE money. :p

    No problem, just let HMRC know and claim the extra back, I had to do that one year and they paid up immediately.

    I did not realise until the following year, so just sent a letter with the details along with my R40 form for that year.

    You can simply send a revised R40 or a letter.
