How to compare funeral plans

Here are a few key factors to keep in mind when comparing funeral plans.

Money jar illustration

Transparent pricing

Look for plans with clear, all-inclusive pricing to avoid hidden costs. Some providers exclude essential services like the removal of medical devices or ashes delivery, leaving families with unexpected expenses. Make sure you understand exactly what is covered and ask for a detailed breakdown of costs.

Change your mind illustration

Flexibility and cancellation options

Life is unpredictable, and your needs may change over time. Choose a provider that offers flexibility, such as the ability to update or cancel your plan without penalties, even past the mandatory 30-day cooling-off period. This ensures your plan continues to meet your requirements in case your situation evolves.

Five star emblem illustration

Provider reputation

Check customer reviews on platforms like Trustpilot and independent ratings from sources like Fairer Finance. A highly rated provider is more likely to deliver a reliable, compassionate service. Consumer experts like MoneySavingExpert can also provide impartial advice on funeral plan providers.

Compassion illustration

Customer care

Funeral planning is a sensitive process, so excellent customer service is essential. Look for providers that are responsive, compassionate, and willing to answer all your questions. A supportive team can make a significant difference when making such an important decision.

Payment options

Compare payment plans to find one that suits your budget. Some providers charge extra for spreading costs over time, so be sure to factor this into your decision. You may want to opt for a plan that offers affordable instalments without additional fees.
