Re: i saved literally thousands with a pre paid funeral plan
If that was correct Jem, the world would be a predominently better place as each person tries to make amends for their previous wrong doings.But that is not the case, it seems there is more hate in the world!
Also, there are more people alive today than who have previously died, where are all the extra souls coming from?

Re: i saved literally thousands with a pre paid funeral plan
Who the hell would pay over 10,000 for a funeral?,only those who are rich or daft..I payed up front for My Cremation at a cost of just £3,450... that was for everything including a viewing in the chapel of rest at My Local Funeral Directors..All My Family has to do when the time comes is make a phone-call,the rest has all been decided/sorted.

Re: i saved literally thousands with a pre paid funeral plan
We have decided to speak to our local funeral director and he said he will beat any funeral plan for cost, funeral plans take into account the inflation over the years and obviously the insurance company has their cut.Having said that I would be happy with just a basic funeral not a state funeral
so we talked at length and decided we don't want any chapel of rest viewing, thereby cutting out embalming etc. we are having no fancy coffins with it made out like a bed, just a body bag in a basic box.I have requested no black or flowers, I don't see it right that flowers have to die because I have, having said that my wife likes cut flowers.
You will be amazed how much you will save.
Am I a skinflint, I guess I don't like wasting money when unnecessary, let them drink it and enjoy my wake.

Spend your money on toy boys toy girls gambling holidays in the sun or what ever.
Does it matter if you are dead who pays as long as its not you.

Re: i saved literally thousands with a pre paid funeral plan
Both my hubby and I did a funeral plan, all the details of what we want are down, requiem mass, favourite hymns. Being cremated then in the plot chosen. All paid for, the family only have to buy the flowers as I think it will be the last present from them to us.I don't want my family more upset than they will be. Son will not let me mention this funeral plan, he gets emotional and off out the door, now I never mention it. So like May its only a phone call and everthing will be sorted for them.

Re: i saved literally thousands with a pre paid funeral plan
I'm not even going to think about funerals. there was an advert on TV today saying you shouldn't leave your family to pay for your funeral.I plan to!! My kids will get a house each and a load of money and several vehicles so the least they can do is pay for my funeral.
