Here is the company policy in writing. Ask your manager to show you whereabouts it says you have to give two weeks notice to take the overtime payment.

If you’re not scheduled to work on a Bank holiday, you’ll receive the equivalent number of hours as a credit to the hours you would have worked.
• If your rest day falls on a Bank holiday, your manager will check if workload allows for you to have another day off that week.
• If that’s not possible, you can either:
» add the day to your annual holiday entitlement; or
» take the excess hours paid as overtime. This will be paid at the Monday to Saturday overtime rate.
• If you work for Parcelforce Worldwide, ask your manager how Bank holidays are dealt with.
