    It's not what they have left to take however. To think the OP only thought they had a bit over one day to come

    I don't get what are you on about?

    The op upto 45 weeks would have 30.28 days to use as someone doing his job for the year would get 35.

    they have used 18.5 days plus whatever bank holidays have already gone this year whilst their working time (for example, let's say 5)

    30.28- (18.5+5)= 6.78 days left to take.

    Since you wont be working for the company over Christmas then those 2 bank hols can be excluded from the calculation.

    So, would you do 27+6*45/52?

    I would do

    28 / 52 * 45 = 24.23

    7 / 52 * 45 = 6.05

    Add together = 30.28

    which would equate to 5.78 days?

    18.5 days taken + 6 BH taken = 24.5 total days taken

    30.28 - 24.5 = 5.78 days?

    The OP gets 27 days PLUS BH so the 7 is the extra days given at the company

    The 28 I stated is the 5.6 weeks statutory holiday per year
