"Please kindly" ... or just simply "Kindly" or "Please"

Hi,

If I start a sentence with "Please kindly let me know soon", is the structure wrong?

I was told that if I use "Please...", there is no need for me to add "kindly" behind. Likewise, if I use "Kindly", there is no need for a "Please" in front. Please enlighten me.

Thanks!
