I beleive this to be incorrect. It is up to the landlord to decied if he wished the tenant to go to a further fixed term, or to let them roll over to a periodic.
The LL may want to have the security ofa further 6mths as may the tenant.
Renewing a tenancy id not being greedy, it the way agents make their money to pay staff, premisis, out goings. After all they are a business, often private LL run their business alone and from their homes, it totally different.
You should have been made aware of the charges you may inccur before you signed the tenancy. It then is your decision wether to go ahead or not.

Well, it;s a free country: Some people believe the earth is flat but that doesn't make it so.

"Utter garbage" seems a fair assessment of your comments: I STRONGLY suggest you book yourself on a basic education course in lettings.... - it'll save you time, money & ridicule!!!

Cheers!

A SPT (Statutory Periodic Tenancy arises automatically when the fixed term ends if the tenant does not leave.

The LL cannot 'decide' not to allow this.

Although that's true literally, L can of course serve a s.21(1)(b) Notice at least two months before fixed-term expiry. If T stays-on, L can begin immediate possession proceedings despite the SPT.

[As long as L has:
a. protected any protectable AST deposit, and given the Prescribed Information when due; and
b. obtained a Licence for any licensable HMO letting.]
