In reply to Anna Blay. Hi, Anna. That's great with Hybrid Publishers. We did state in the blog:

Most partnership publishers are unscrupulous – we can’t attest to them all, but the ones we know of (through clients who’ve been burned, and come to us) are shameless.

Not all partnership publishing is as you describe. We at Hybrid Publishers work closely with our authors to produce a successful book, without the need to take all the risk with a book that may not be commercially viable. See what our authors have said about us on our website under Author Submission.
We are a member of SPN.

In reply to Maria Stefanidis. Yes, we agree, Maria. There are opportunistic people out there who'll exploit an author's inexperience for their own gain.

Thanks for this. I didn’t know much about partnership publishing, appreciate your clear stance.

The information provided was everything a writer needs to read before hastily committing to a partnership publishing. Some publishers simply prey on vulnerable and struggling authors and once they receive their money they wash their hands of them. No author should be demoralized in this way or suffer financial loss on account of such con publishers.
