It's certainly up to the company whether they pay extra or not. Whether they can change their previous custom without notice is the only point of doubt.

this should be written into the terms of employment which you should have received when you started at the company. the company cannot change these terms without prior notification but equally, their terms may have said that bank holiday working would be at normal rate however they have paid above that rate in the past as a means to entice you to stay with them. Ask them for a copy of the Terms of Employment as it will state clearly on this.
