    OP, that depends on your contract and on how many days a year you were allowed, if you were entitled to time of in lieu and so on. No one can figure it out without those details.

    If there was no contract you may not be entitled to anything back.

    In any case if you had 4 weeks per year it would be 20days. As a simple calculation it would mean for every 13 days you work you were entitled to 1 day off. 260/13=20

    This however does not include any bank holidays and so on.

    Full time? part time? exact date you started (beginning, mid or end of Sept - makes a difference) what way does your holiday leave year run? Jan-Dec? March - Feb? April-March? Sept-August?

    For the sake of argument, if you were full time, at statutory AL allowance and started on 3rd Sept (first monday in Sept) and your holiday year runds Jan - Dec then your holiday leave from Sept - Dec would be 6.66 days. You have taken 2. So that leaves you with a balance of 4.66. If you did not take any time off at christmas, other than public holidays, then your employer should allow you to carry over these 4.66 days into 2013. Provided you stay in work until the 31st Jan, then you will accrue a further 1.66 days for January. Leaving you with a holiday entitlement of 6.32 for which you should be paid out.
