HMRC advice differs from what's online

I recieved an email from HMRC yesterday saying that I could top up by paying £824 for two years, one being 2006/7. I know that I arrived in the UK in June of 2006 and started work in September so I must have paid a partial year. However, when I checked online 2006 is not even listed. How am I supposed to find out how much to pay and indeed whether I should pay at all?

    Unfortunately one of those cases where speaking to a human is going to be the only way forward, something that is close to impossible at the moment.

    Never associate with idiots on their own level, because, being an intelligent man, you'll try to deal with them on their level - and on their level they'll beat you every time.

    Being hated by idiots is the price you pay for not being one of them.
