Left Job - Final Wage

Hello. I gave my work 2 months notice and my last day was 28/11/18. I have 39.5 hours untaken holidays accrued (Basically a week)

I was expecting my unused holiday entitlement pay to be added onto my basic wage for my final wage at the end of this month.
However, I have noticed that I have only been my basic wage as normal, (as if I weren't leaving).

At the moment I am guessing this is because my manager, HR or whomever hasn't actually processed my official leave yet and so the unused holiday entitlement was not included. I'm unsure therefore if I will receive this at the end of the following month in December?

Should I contact my now former workplace for clarification?

    If they didn't send your P45 then the holiday pay may well be coming next month but you definitely want to check that out just in case it's not!
