Let's not forget that it did exist. A pension's loan scam museum will open one day.

I give it a month before all the petitionsdirect/lymgold/moneymeans websites are down for the count as well. They're just as bad.

Site is back again...so put the Champagne on ice.

Oh my goodness... Simon Stanborough of 'Petitions direct' was recently denied a consumer credit license for a VERY good reason... the deeper you dig, the longer the trail of scams go. Former director of UK Restart? Assisted Bankruptcy plans?? These are the sort of people who will continue scamming people under different guises until the day they die.

Raking it in - how could it be left down? Just tweaked the wording a bit to stay under the FSA radar

Explains the get away attempt from the press on a bike?

I think it's slightly worse than that.

Not come across that Simon

As far as Anthony Chewins and the
No Fee Mortgage Company
Quay
Quay F.S.
Quay Financial Services
etc are concerned, there are two other known associates, one of whom is called Simon Francis Edgar.

Duncan John Strike is another associate.

Anyone reckon Penman & Sommerlad might be interested to find out about Simon Stanborough & co's latest wheeze?

Their contact page is here http://blogs.mirror.co.uk/investigations/contact.php

I dialed the 01202 835600 advertised on the 'Pension Lending' website. The chap who answered was 'Daniel from MoneyMeans'

He is more than likely this gentleman, but what I can't understand is why they would insist in using the same number on several different pension related websites, then answer the phone as Moneymeans??? I can't image these scammers being all that bright.

Please! What with all Loan Pension & Sky Insurance Scam Artists in Poole & Bournemouth  we're becoming known as the "Costa del Crime"! Please do not publicise these any more or the media will be alerted. They are already jamming the council's phone lines!

Who is your Pension with?

Pension Amount (Approx, £?)

Have you got an annuity against the pension?

Any other comments?

------
Yes, I have two:

1) The www.pension-loan.co.uk website is owned by:
PETITIONS DIRECT LIMITED
[residential address removed]
Companies House Number: 06777475

Yet this is not declared anywhere on the website. Professional financial organisations tend to declare their address and company details on their front or about us page. Why is this being hidden?

2) ICO Data Protection Register Entry Details show Petitions Direct Limited has Registration Number: Z1641830

Data Controller: PETITIONS DIRECT LIMITED

Address:
[residential address removed]

Transfers: None outside the European Economic Area

Yet the Whois information shows the hosting server for www.pension-loan.co.uk to be in the USA:
IP Address:66.197.229.60 Reverse-IP | Ping | DNS Lookup | Traceroute ASN: AS21788 IP Location: - Pennsylvania     - Scranton     - Network Operations Center Inc

Why has the correct registration submission not been made to the ICO?

3) The Whois registration states: Registrant type:
       UK Individual

   Registrant's address:
       The registrant is a non-trading individual who has opted to have their
       address omitted from the WHOIS service

Yet Petitions Direct Ltd is registered as trading by Companies House. Why was this information not input honestly?

Thank you

Roger
