The hefty fee you have paid to your scheme administrator.

That fee which has done you no good at all if HMRC come knocking.

If you 'earn' £100k and pay 15% fees, that's £15k gone forever.

If HMRC come after you for tax, you're going to have to pay not only the tax, but you're also out your £15k

The vast majority of the money paid by these schemes is indeed 'gone', as it does not offset UK taxation which you might be found to be liable for.
