Disappointingly not. In fact recent government commissioned studies recommended not regulating this further for fear of driving customers to more unscrupulous lenders (presumably ones without flashy offices and good marketing - not actually more expensive ones, which are hard to find). It's pretty disgraceful. Thankfully it is beginning to be flagged up as more of a problem as some of the better newspapers are beginning to do some proper investigative reporting.
