How do you find out?
I don't want to seem thick, but I think I might have done, but can't face going through every payslip and figure it out.

Well, I shall wait and see.
Fairly sure I will have done as I didn't work for a few months.

That's what happened with me after a few months of doing nothing then getting a job, got about £900 i think.
Spent it.

I don't imagine it'll be that much,
But a couple of hundred wouldn't go amiss. I'm guessing you're tax code is based on your projected annual earnings, so by not working part of the year, you will almost certainly have paid too much.

You guessed right. I am tax code.

I'm toughening you up and preparing you for the real world

Mine is because my yearly pay rise is in September but the tax year is April to April
So for 6 months I pay too much tax

take your p60
take the taxable pay and the tax paid and stick them in here stccalculator.hmrc.gov.uk/UserDetails.aspx

But my p60 only appears to have earnings and tax for the new job. Not the old one.
