How to change the estimated amount of interest allocated by HMRC to my account for 25/26

in Cutting tax
As the title suggests, HMRC have made an estimate of the amount of interest I will earn during 25/26. The amount is nowhere near the true amount and I'd like to correct it (or at least make a more accurate reduced estimate) I can't seem to find a place to do this online. Is it possible to do this? if so, where abouts on their site (within my account) can this be done
Many thanks
Paul

@Dazed_and_C0nfused I beg to differ.

Thanks for responding, but I don't have the button 'Information HMRC has about you'
It's not until I get to the page giving a detailed breakdown of how the tax code is made up, that I can see their estimated figure------ actually not unreasonable to base it on last year's figure, but nowhere near correct
Any more thoughts

That’s in the HMRC App, it’s similar in the Personal Tax Account on Gov.uk, but you may have to select the current year.
After a couple of steps it’s clear ‘Missing Income’ includes incorrect income.Fashion on the Ration

OK, think I've got it, or at least I hope I have! although it's far from intuitive. Yes, went down the route of missing income, which isn't what I'd call it, but there you go. Hopefully they won't add the small amount I've just entered to the amount they've estimated----- find out in 15 days
Thanks all that helped

15 days!
I updated my interest figure via the app 3 months ago and HMRC have still not adjusted my tax code for 25/26.0
