  Golden Leaves best buy – or not?

Golden Leaves Funeral Plans have been at the forefront of Pre-paid Funeral Planning since 1984 when such plans first became available in the UK. Golden Leaves are a founder member of the National Association for Pre-paid Funeral Plans. Many thousands of people in the UK and expatriates abroad have now planned and paid for their funerals as part of a sensible and responsible approach to organising their lives.

Golden Leaves Funeral Plans are now available throughout the UK, Europe and other countries.  They have quite a wide variety of plans: Simple*, Standard, Premium, Green, International and Bespoke.  Not all providers offer international plans, but several do.

All Funeral Directors accepted to provide Golden Leaves services must first satisfy a number of stringent requirements. Not least, they must demonstrate outstanding service records in the communities they serve and must be affiliated to accredited professional associations. Golden Leaves’ UK appointees are members of the National Association of Funeral Directors (NAFD) and/or The Society of Allied and Independent Funeral Directors (SAIF) or the Funeral Standards Council (FSC).

The Prepaid Funeral Review says “Golden Leaves are a good funeral plan provider: like the rest, they have good and bad points and could be perfect for your next door neighbour, and not at all suitable for you!  Free independent advice is available on the important decisions involved in selecting the right funeral plan for your particular location and requirements.  If you are not in a hurry, GO HERE and download our funeral plan questionnaire.  It will help you consider which benefits are most important to you – and all the plans on offer their own unique set of features.

When you are ready to go ahead, send it back and we will review it against our features and benefits database and recommend what we believe to be the most appropriate plan for you.  All we ask is that if you decide to accept our advice, you buy the plan through us.  In the unlikely even that you find the recommended funeral plan cheaper elsewhere, let us know and we’ll try to renegotiate the price for you.   We’re on 0800 0588 240 if you’re in a hurry.

*Like many providers, Golden Leaves offer a basic “Simple” funeral plan which does NOT include what are called “disbursements.”   Be aware that these types of plan do not include the cost of crematorium, ministers or doctors fees.   That doesn’t make it a bad plan, but it does demonstrate the need for Independent Advice when choosing a prepaid funeral plan.
