Experience of Marketguard?

I have come across this company who appear to offer insurance against rate rises. Does anyone have any experience of them or know anything about their products?

Thanks.

    Set up in 2008. Not a UK company. Offering a product that no-one else does.

    That really sounds appealing....not.

    At the moment fixed rates are very cheap.
    Anyone worried about rising rates who has a decent length term should simply consider a fix.

    I can assure you I have no links with them. I simply searched on Google and that was the page that came up.

    Anyway, since starting the thread, I have done some research and as suggested by all the responses here it looks like a waste of time (and more importantly money!).
