    I think we need more information - what do you mean by cubbed? 
    why did you fill in a tax return (don't usually need to if your income is just pensions and interest) ?

    how much interest did you get?

    Here.  Tell us what you put in each box where you have made an entry on the return.

    Your NHS and state pension are "clubbed" together? As for interest could HRMC have received the information incorrectly from the bank where £5,600 was reported as the interest rather than the deposit amount?

    Either way - £5600 interest could not result in a £5600 tax liability.
