Actually we should not be attacking the scheme providers; that is ultimately futile. We should be attacking the major corporation that is pushing its people towards them. Cut the providers off at the knees by removing their source of willing victims.

This!

How can I put this?

RUN AWAY!

Don't even contemplate about maybe thinking about joining.

Btw - who is your locum agency? They deserve to be named and shamed for promoting such schemes.

This. If you are an IPSE member please get in touch and we'll have a look at warning others not to get caught in this scheme.

I would like to see scheme providers attacked. Their advisers. Any corporation that pushes people towards them(no doubt they get a referral fee).

And HMRC if(when?) they do not fail to tackle them.

The providers are largely beyond reach, even if you can identify them. Somewhere in the chain is a company outside UK's jurisdiction.

Ditto the advisors; they are usually part of the provider family.

Yes, attack the referrers - or at least educate them about the damage they're doing. Chances are they have no idea.

HMRC are attacking them, but they are restricted to UK-based users of the schemes who, as ony fule kno, are not actually the problem.

The FSA ceased in 2013.

Its now the FCA, and from what i remember there is no need for Umbrella companies to be authorised. So the FCA wouldn't be able to do anything.

Just report them to HMRC.

I got offered their scheme a while ago by a colleague, something about getting a loan from your employer. Ill make sure i ask him in a year or two how he got on

Elite Synergy Wealth Management - the UK's leading wealth management company

"UK's Leading Wealth Management company" - Thats a bold claim, i wonder what Barclays Wealth or JP Morgan would have to say about that
