Have got is the usual verb in BrE to show possession, etc. in positive statements in the present tense, in negative statements and in questions: They’ve got a wonderful house. We haven’t got a television. Have you got a meeting today? Questions and negative statements formed with do are also common: Do you have any brothers and sisters? We don’t have a car.
Have is also used but is more formal: I have no objection to your request. Have you an appointment? Some expressions with have are common even in informal language: I’m sorry, I haven’t a clue.
In the past tense had is used in positive statements. In negatives and questions, forms with did have are usually used: They had a wonderful house. We didn’t have much time. Did she have her husband with her?
In NAmE have and forms with do/does/did are the usual way to show possession, etc. in positive statements, negatives and questions: They have a wonderful house. We don’t have a television. Do you have a meeting today? Have got is not used in questions, but is used in positive statements, especially to emphasize that somebody has one thing rather than another: ‘Does your brother have brown hair?’ ‘No, he’s got blond hair.’
In both BrE and NAmE have and forms with do/does and did are used when you are referring to a habit or routine: We don’t often have time to talk.
