Yup
They are not allowed to do it.
If you get sacked they cant put it in the reference

They can refuse to give one altogether though, which is probably worse.

That's all very well, but it doesn't stop them picking up the phone. I wouldn't be too much of a cock personally.
The letter can be as simple or a complex as you like.
