Oh, I know it's standard. But it's sham status has at least a sliver of a chance of rendering it questionably legal, particularly in that it also says "please send us notice with 14 days if you want to stay on - this doesn't bind us to anything".
Charging me £85 for printing out a piece of paper is also questionably legal under the UCCTR 1999. Unfortunately if I fight any of it, I risk having to find a new place in the middle of a highly stressful degree.
I think my point is that the fact that what they're indulging in is industry standard practice is actually evidence in support of my assertion that letting agents are scum.
