In the end, the choice is yours whether you decide to buy a funeral plan, but, depending on what you're looking for, they could solve a few problems for you. By deciding what you want and paying for it in advance, you can prevent your loved ones from having to pay thousands for your funeral when they will be grieving your loss, as well as from needing to sort out the particulars of your ceremony when they may not be sure of what you'd have wanted. Buying a funeral plan also lets you keep the price you see today, even if your plan is not activated for many years. This protects your family from potential future price rises and from having to pay the difference. Aura secures your money in a trust managed by independent trustees, ready to be used when the moment arises, and fully ring-fenced specifically for your funeral. If you'd like to learn more about the benefits of funeral plans, we'd be glad to talk to you about your options. You can call us at your convenience, or simply request a quote on our website.
Anxiety surrounding paying the cost of a funeral is all too common, and something we see frequently in our line of work. Given the rising cost of funerals in the UK, it's hardly surprising. We hope it brings some comfort to know that, with a starting price of £1,695, Aura funeral plans are significantly cheaper than the UK average funeral cost found in the SunLife 2024 Cost of Dying Report of £4,141. The good news is that our prices don't change depending on where you are in mainland Britain. We'd be more than happy to assist you with your options; we're very experienced in organising the kind of plan that will honour you at a price that works; just give us a call and we can get started.
A natural worry people have when considering a funeral plan is how easy it would be to either change or cancel it after the fact. We are proud to say that our funeral plans are designed to help you go with the flow, meaning that if something comes up that requires you to amend or cancel your plan, you can do so easily. We won't charge you any extra admin fees in either case, and you'll only need to pay if you upgrade things, for example, by changing an unattended ceremony to a service with guests. What's more is that if you do need a refund for any reason, you just have to let us know and we can arrange one for you without any hassle. If you'd like to ask us anything about this, or if you'd like to change or cancel an existing plan, you have only to contact us; we are waiting for your call.
It's perfectly normal to wonder how things will work once you've passed away, especially if you're not here yourself to let us know about that. That's why during the plan purchasing process, we ask you to nominate a responsible person (usually a close friend or family member) who can be our point of contact when the time comes. We will work with this person to organise your ceremony, and to take care of the paperwork, and we will also provide them with a handy guide that details all of the steps they will need to take. This means that the process will be seamless, and that, as soon as they let us know it's time, we can use the money you've prepaid to put everything into action.
There are lots of options out there for funeral plans in Britain, so we know that it's vital to offer something different. We're very grateful for the recognition we've earned from both independent experts and from our own customers alike. Fairer Finance has made us the only national provider of cremation services to have two 5-star rated plans, while our customers' reviews have made us the top-rated one on Trustpilot, with a 4.9-star rating. If you're curious to see whether we could give you a service worthy of these ratings, why don't you call us so that we can organise something for you that really does you justice, whether you're based in Harrogate or anywhere else in mainland Britain?
