"Aitch" is definitely still very much in use in UK - among older people, particularly.

Dear confused,

Sorry to have to add to your mental confusion but my dad, who is English, is 62 and he made sure that I pronounced my haitches. I don't know what you would classify as 'old' but 62 is a fine line. Maybe a pre-war generation used it???

Hi Dr. Bill! I knew you weren't referring to us as being a joke. I was playing on your words earlier on!!! No offence taken!!!
