Overpayment of tax credits for 2013

Not quite sure how they have decided this, but about two weeks ago, I received a letter saying I owed £89 odd for 2012/13.

It's not due until 28 May, so I just decided that I would pay it when I needed to, but I have lost the letter.

Do I just have to ring them up and pay it over the phone? I suppose I should also speak with someone just to check the letter is genuine.

    Normally if its under £3000 they will collect through PAYE. In my case I just pay the full amount rather than through that system. Best advice is phone them.
