Making a payment for UK State Pension

I got a letter a few months ago saying that I could make voluntary contributions - so planning on making the payments now!

1. What does this mean on the letter?
"Due to changes in the law, you need the Pension Service to confirm whether your State Pension will increase if you pay any shortfall!
Is this step necessary?

2. The reference number on my letter is EU/CF followed by 14 digits. Is this normal as the website seems to suggest a 18 digit reference!

Any guidance appreciated!
Thanks
