If you have less than �4000 total income, including state pension if applicable, phone the tax office today.

Do you mean your TOTAL annual income is less than �4000? If so, I don't think you should be paying any tax at all and if your income has been at this level for the past 6 years, I think you can reclaim for that period.
If you are over 60 and �4000 pa is your total income, you should claim pension credit unless you have very significant savings.
