Came across a company (The Consulting Co.) where students pay a fee (£1450) and you will get a 8-week internships. You'll work on real projects and get career support after.
My question is, is there any point paying for such experience? Paying to work sounds very weird but consulting is so competitive nowadays, you will need to have some experience to boost your CV.

Not familiar with the company, but paying for experience seems like a scam to me. Unpaid internships are one thing, but I have never heard of paying.
