Tower bonds from Castle Trust

Does anybody have a view about 'Tower Bonds' -- or, indeed, other prodcts from Castle Trust (who, I believe, are based in Suffolk)? They seem to be offering slightly higher-than-average rates for bonds and ISAs.

Grateful for any steer.

    Are you aware you could lose 100% of your investment? It's not a savings account.

    If you're prepared to risk that much of your money wouldn't a S&S ISA be a better option where you would have much lower possibility of loss depending on your risk profile?
    Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.
