Why buy a funeral plan
Why should you consider a Dignity Funeral Plan?
Planning and paying towards a funeral in advance with a Guaranteed Funeral Plan from Dignity offers you many different benefits.
Financial peace of mind
- Freeze costs at today’s prices.
- You will have paid in full for the cremation funeral services covered in the plan, with your family only paying for flowers and other special requests at the time.
- It removes potential worry about how your funeral will be paid for, especially when savings are often needed to fund retirement.
- The money paid into each Plan is invested and managed by some of the most respected financial organisations in the country.
- Buying a funeral plan may help reduce the amount of inheritance tax that may be payable on your estate.
- As an added reassurance, you have a full 28 days to change your mind. You can then get a refund of all the money you have paid. However, a cancellation fee is charged if you cancel after 28 days.
- Once it's paid for, it's paid for.
