I purchased a funeral plan several years ago with Age Concern taken over by Dignity. Due to a recent death in the family and the problems faced I decided that a direct cremation with ashes returned to my daughter was kinder when she faced my passing. I was surprised I had to cancel my current plan and pay a cancellation fee. To have the plan I wanted, I had to start a new plan with a different department. Surely an amendment to my plan would have been more appropriate, a conversation with one person, no two, with an admin charge if necessary, and any refund to follow. No problem with the staff, just in my opinion the system is wrong.

A great service

We found Hinckley very helpful and very clear as to what we both wanted for our Funerals. The follow up from Dignity was first class with all the information. It could not have been better very pleased with the service so far and would highly recommend.

Arranging a Funeral Plan

I spoke to Heidi at the Teddington branch and she was really helpful and informative. Despite talking about a funeral plan she made the experience quite positive.

Very efficient and highly recommended!

I visited Hutesons in Barton-upon-Humber to set up a funeral plan. The staff there were all really helpful and friendly but especially Caleah who was the one helping me set up my plan.
She was very kind and patient and took the time to explain everything fully. She covered every aspect of arranging a funeral, including things I never realised I might need, and made sure I was happy with everything every step of the way.
I left feeling very happy with the plan I had arranged and feeling very confident in this company due to the thorough and efficient service they provide.
I would highly recommend them!!

The service was excellent

The service was excellent. Everything was explained to me, and they fulfilled all the wishes I had. They were very caring and put me at ease. I can't praise enough the service I had and would like to thank the funeral planner and the funeral director Chris who was understanding and professional.
