Quick, easy, painless. Fantastic!!

Spoke with Adam this morning and I'm all sorted. My kids don't need to worry.
Excellent service, Adam was great.
A no frills funeral with the funeral director of my choice.
Payment was easy, in full, over the phone. A worry off my mind and one less thing for my kids to fret about when I'm gone.
Cannot praise Golden Charter enough.
5 stars for Adam *****

No compassion given

Phoned today wanting to cancel my funeral plan that I have already paid half of. However I can only stop the payments and they are holding the remainder of my money until I pass and then my family can use it. I require this money in return as I have fallen in hard times and struggling, as I have been rather ill amd unable to work. No sympathy given. Don't recommend if its compassion you are looking for.

So Simple, So easy, I’m Sorted

I’m still here, but couldn’t have been easier to just go in to a local funeral parlour and explain what I wanted. My wishes weren’t questioned so no frills, no fuss and family can collect the urn if any are still around. The point is it’s all with my lawyer, who knows my wishes. I gave x4 stars but if all goes to plan I can change to x5 from beyond;) Paid within a year, no issues, no contact unless I wanted to. I’d no intention of just leaving and hoping someone else would pick up the tab, that’s just not on. I’m sorted.

Called today to set up a funeral plan on behalf of my Uncle he was quite apprehensive of doing this over the phone however he had no need to worry as the process was very straight forward. Tracy Hill was the customer support advisor i dealt with and she explained everything simply and in great detail. The plan was paid for in full over the phone so now my Uncle has peace of mind that his funeral needs have been taken care of. Would recommend this company to family and friends.

My experience with Golden Charter

My experience with Golden Charter was very positive. I was dealt with by Adam who was very knowledgeable, informative and very pleasant to deal with. I have as a result taken out a Policy with the company. My family have used Golden Charter in the past and I highly recommend them.

Appalling customer service if you have any issues. Unhelpful abrupt advisor who has no idea how to speak and deal with customers and needs serious retraining. Would be the last place I would recommend for a funeral pity my dad had a policy with golden charter

Unfortunately we needed to cancel our funeral plans (arranged about 10 years ago!), due to physical struggles and not waiting till we die as not classed as terminally as no quality of life, so off to Switzerland for dying with dignity. Wow so efficient company, spoke with Charlene, no quibble refunded within a couple of days. So much appreciate thank you and your team.

When I contacted this company, they were TOTALLY professional throughout!

When I contacted this company, I was answered by, Mariama! She was extremely professional and friendly, and helpful! She offered to send out information to me, and this duly arrived! However, she had already issued an email with all of the information that I required. It was for myself, so my wife and I read it through, and agreed, that this WAS for me! She called me back yesterday as she had promised, and I ostensibly agreed to take their services on the spot! Mariama was totally professional throughout the call, I couldn’t praise, or indeed, recommend her highly enough!

Changed my plan with absolutely no hassle.

Having taken out a plan several years ago prior to my retirement, many things have changed. I contacted them to change the plan to a direct cremation, John was very understanding and explained what they could offer. Within days my bank account received the difference as promised. The service Golden Charter offers is excellent with full explanation of the service.

funeral plan does not pay for the cremation

As an executor of my mum. I'm here to share with other families. My mum took out a cremation funeral plan 2014. It turns out the actual cremation is not covered in the funeral plan. Emailing this company gives no response.
Edited
From a customer service view, more than an hour to not answer a call is not acceptable.
No human contact from the 2 emails sent.
Edited
Finally, my call is answered.
I am not permitted to speak directly to the complaints team.
Laura (from GC) will locate my email complaint and forward it to their complaints team for review.
Watch this space.

Thank you for your review.

I believe our customer resolution team has now responded to the concerns you have raised.

Your mum purchased our Base plan. This funeral plan only included funeral director’s services and did not include an allowance towards any third party services, such as crematorium costs.

The additional information held on your mum’s funeral plan record confirms this, advising that the “family will pay for third party costs at the time of need”. This was also noted on the application form signed by your mum.

We are very sorry that our call wait times were so long when you called. We have been experiencing a higher volume of calls than expected recently and are doing our best to ensure we can answer calls more quickly.

Extremely poor service in a sensititive situation

Extremely poor service in a sensitive situation. Despite submitting all completed forms over two months ago, no payment has been received, causing unnecessary stress at a difficult time. Communication is slow, wait times are long, and the process shows little care or efficiency. Not recommended.
