Avalon Funeral Plan Reviews – our verdict.

Funeral Plan Quotes

In reviewing Avalon funeral plans, we have been pretty critical of the administration in the past. Things do seem to be on a much more even keel administratively these days but we do still get more complaints about Avalon than anyone else. They are not keen on releasing prices to enquirers who don’t want a sales visit. We believe that people should be able to read brochures, prices and terms and conditions quietly before making up their mind whether they wish to even discuss things with a salesperson.

Looking at Avalon Trustee Company Ltd accounts, the company seems to have been trading at a massive loss, which is never a good thing. But we are not accountants, and apparently the reason for it is the number of plans paid in instalments, so things should even out. According to their 2016 accounts, the fund intended to pay for funerals is in adequate shape and that is the main thing. The company seems to be owned primarily by Nirvana Holdings Ltd, which in turn seems to be owned by a company called Tamaflow Limited which we believe is Irish.

The fact that Avalon Funeral Plans have been accepted as members of the Funeral Planning Authority reflects the efforts of the new management to turn the company round.    However, membership of the Funeral Planning Authority is not the same as being formally regulated. That is the impression given by FPA members.  But the FPA is a still a good thing!

We can still normally improve on any UK offer Avalon Funeral Planning may make. We will still add the bonus package should there be a better value alternative for you.  But we really are pleased to note the improvements.
