Incorrect tax code

Hi,
I wonder if anyone can help. I have been doing a check up on my finances and noticed I was down about £200/month to what I should be taking home. I checked my payslip and my tax code is 536L which doesn't seem to be right.
I called HMRC last night and they said it was because the system was showing that I was still working in a job that I left in 2008! He said I needed to show my P45 to prove that I left.
I don't have my P45 and I have contacted my previous employer and they don't appear to have a copy either.
Can anyone suggest what else I might do? I feel like it should be HMRC that sorts this out because the P45 had originally gone to them, as from 2009 to 2012 my tax code was correct.
Help!
