Possibly yes, but the chances are slim to disappearing that you haven't been paid as our holidays, if you are Royal Mail, are paid.

Also a point of clarification, we don't work a week in hand we work the week we are paid, so this weeks wage is for this weeks holiday. Last week would have been last weeks pay plus overtime from the previous week if done before Wednesday IIRC.

yes, sometimes the pay chits are just late, especially if the local office has been hammered and they've rolled some mail over.
