My new employer promised to honour all existing terms and have done so with exception to this.

There's nothing in writing though. 

I’m aware of that, but it’s not like I’m asking for anything beyond their legal obligations.
im also not sure they aren’t breaking the law by not providing a proper written contract.

Technically yes. In theory they have to provide a written statement of the main particulars of your employment (or some such similar phrase). However it is largely a moot point as there is little you can do about it if they don't. You cannot make a tribunal claim on this point alone. If you have some other valid tribunal case against them you can add this failing to the claim. The tribunal might make a modest award at its discretion (but often doesn't).

The law is in writing.  Northern_Monkey is only seeking the statutory entitlement.

Hi, just a quick update.
I contacted ACAS who confirmed my entitlement.
I then took this information back to my employer who claimed a glitch in the time keeping system due to my fortnightly shifts had caused the problem.
I now have my full quota of holidays.
 Thanks again everyone for your initial advice.
