Everything fine. Customer advisors excellent,
Explained things really well.
It was just difficult living in market Harborough that it is just a subsidiary office and I found it difficult to make the payment. Not a criticism just what it is today.

Simple & easy funeral planning.
I found the experience of choosing the funeral plan easier than I expected.
The advisor “Jayne” very helpful and although I was a bit confused as to what to expect but I was put at ease with the adviser and was pleased that she was very patient & explained everything that I needed to know.
Overall I am extremely happy and satisfied with the service that I received.
