| It will be years before I need
a funeral - why should I plan now?
You can certainly wait to make your plans if you feel you
have time. Two things are guaranteed in life – you will
need some form of a funeral one day, and it’s getting
more costly each year. So even if you don’t need to
plan it now – it makes sense to fix its cost by paying
for it now.
Can I plan a Church service as well
as a service at the chapel?
Within reason you can plan whatever you want. Many of our
Planholders select their favourite hymns to accompany the
service. Others have a song that means a lot to them or a
piece of music they know they will be remembered by.
What if I die away from home or on
holiday?
We recommend that your travel policy includes full repatriation
cover.
What happens if I die before
I complete the instalment payments?
Your funeral will be arranged in accordance with your Plan.
The balance will be paid by your
executors or from your estate.
Can I arrange a Plan for someone
else?
Yes. Confidentiality is assured. All correspondence will be
sent directly to the person arranging the plan.
Will there be any further cost
for my executors?
Once paid for, the services of the Funeral Director detailed
in your Plan are guar-anteed to be covered (in accordance
with the Terms & Conditions). Disbursements may necessitate
a further payment from you at the time of need, but Golden
Leaves will guarantee any increase in the costs of Disbursements
to the RPI (Retail Price Index). Your executors may wish to
pay for additional services at the time of the funeral.
What if my circumstances change?
You shouldn't worry about taking the decision to make your
plans now, we know that
circumstances change with the years so are happy to take direction
from you should you wish to make changes to your initial Plan.
Although certain additions may increase the cost, you can
be certain that the details you want will be respected in
the service you get.
What if I want a Burial?
If you are planning to include a burial as part of your Funeral
Plan, please consult the 'Burials' page. (this applies to
the UK only).
