Buying a Funeral Plan
There was a recent article from the BBC about funeral plans. It had claimed a recent report commissioned by Dignity said that thousands of people are buying a funeral plan that dose not meet their needs. Relatives are left with extra costs once a loved one has passed.
It says “unscrupulous sales practices in the market was significant and growing.”
The article goes onto say that some of the sales tactics that sales reps are adopting include pressure tactics through phone calls and home visits to consumers 50+. This is harassing them into buying a funeral plan.
It went onto state “That buying a funeral plan from a reputable provider can provide good value for money, as it locks in current prices.”
These tactics by unethical sales agents are something we do not condone this at Clydebank Co-operative Funeral Directors. These people do not act in the best interests of the consumer or funeral directors like ourselves.
