but it seems to me that the owners of small businesses can do what they want...even tho its illegal...the best thing you can do is check with your local CAB
Telephone service for low paid workers, their advisers, employers etc. Offers information and advice on pay, employment rights, and benefits.

May be able to help you...
I dont think this is strictly true, although I am not sure, I dont think employers have to pay you double time and a day in leiu for working a bank holiday. I will be more than glad to hear I am wrong.
you are not entitled by law to bank holiday pay or even the bank holiday itself !
It depneds what your contract says.
You best bet is to join a union , you can pay by direct debit .
e.g.Usdaw costs 1.65 per week for fulltimers 1.10 part time their website is [url]www.usdaw.org.uk:[/url])
Employment Rights
Hope that helps, I found it quite useful :cool:
