  • It maybe legal for Skye Loans to 'Piggyback' on another company but it's still illegal for them to collect money or administer their loans. It has be the company they are 'piggybacking' on that collects and administer their loans for them. Skye Loans are acting illegally. Don't pay them a penny.

    Skye appear to be piggybacking on another companies licence, which is perfectly legal. Skye are therefore a legitimate creditor and you need to deal with them.

    Please don't listen to this clown. This is the worst possible thing you could do.

    Stop spouting off manure to people which could get them into serious difficulties and cost them thousands of pounds.

    Hi I have a secured loan which was taken over by Skye loans. Can you advise me a bit more on them not being regulated by FCA and what this actually means. Are they fraudently taking my monthly payments. Thanks in advance

    Not a lot.

    You don't need to be regulated to buy up existing mortgages. Skye Loans Ltd are simply the legal owners of certain mortgages and act as 'cash managers' for the beneficial owners of these loans who appear to be Luxembourg based.

    You are correct about not needing to be regulated to own 2nd charge mortgages, but the rest of your post is nonsense.

    As Skye Loans are not regulated, they are still entitled to own 2nd charge mortgages but it is illegal for them to administer those mortgages or collect on them.

    They seem to be committing fraud

    No, it's what it says in Skye's accounts.

    Please provide everybody with the details of which Act of Parliament or Regulation that states this.

    It should be here somewhere.

    Then report them to Action Fraud.

    Let us know how you get on.

    P.S. I now see from your post #7 that you were, back in March, "in the process of taking this crooks to court to recover payments made to them, I have also reported them to Fraud Line."

    So how have you got on? It's been nine months or so.

    Point 1/
    FCA state that to service any financial product you need to be regulated by the FCA, you need to be licenced, I thought this to be self explanatory.
    Skye Loans Ltd are not regulated and have no licence to service their mortgage portfolio, which they are doing without license. This is an illegal act.

    Point 2/
    I have reported Skye Loans Ltd to Action Fraud, and if you do the same, you will find out this organisation are not fit for purpose.

    Point 3/
    I have decided not to sue Skye Loans Ltd. If you take a look at their accounts, it would not be financially viable to do so. I have decided to sue the FCA instead for 'breach of duty owed'.
