Before it was unregulated there were unethical companies. However, since July 2009 the SARB market is now regulated by the FSA. This means all companies have to be authorised. This protects consumers rights. I suggest that if you are interested in using such as scheme that you first speak with an impartial expert, because there may be more suitable alternatives. You could contact your local Citizens Advice bureau for free advice. True. Before it was unregulated there were unethical companies.

Unscrupulous and unethical companies and individuals have been allowed to exploit vulnerable home owners unchecked, while making huge sums of money. Let's hope that the FSA has the resources, time, and the will to do a proper job. Regulation of this market in my opinion is long overdue.
