Excptional Customer service

Customer service, and communication this company's employe showed me was outstanding . Over a few months they gave our family time to ensure we had the right plan and the right company, they didnt spam us with silly emails saying your offer is running out, just 1 thoughtfully worded text message from whi i spoke with Shaun, as a reminder that they still had our enquiry open were happy to discuss any question if we had them . A very usefull conversation was had that re assured me of no hidden fees, and even small details like asking if I was recovering from a recent operation we'll.. genuinely after working in customer services for over 25 years this guy has shown me the best example I have ever seen . He listened, asked questions, laughed with me and generally new what it was he was doing, albeit a sales man he did more than sell us a funeral plan, he sold us trust that we have made the right choice .. I suppose with something like this only time will tell if the service we have bought reflects what we have been sold . However our very positive experince at this early stage has me hoping mum will have a respectable and peacefully send off when the time comes.

Karen, to whom I spoke, explained everything to me, answered questions, was calm and gentle at all times, and knew exactly what was what, which gave me every confidence that I had chosen the right funeral company, Memoria. l am so happy and relieved that this matter has now been attended to so satisfactorily!

Advert is a bit misleading

Advert is a bit misleading. It could show ( upfront) the price of an immediate cremation service, and the price of a future cremation.

That said, the customer service was excellent 👌.

Very professional …

My wife and I had been thinking of a prepaid funeral plan for both of us for a while but kept putting it off. We finally decided to sort once and for all and came across Memoria Funerals online and contacted them via their online form.

Gill called me the next day. She took time to go through the types of plans available and emailed all of the information over for the plan we had chosen. Gill called me again today at the agreed time to finalise everything.

Gill is a lovely, compassionate and understanding lady who puts you at ease on a topic which isn't always easy to talk about.
