Citizens Advice responds to action on funeral costs

1 Mehefin 2018

Gillian Guy, Chief Executive of Citizens Advice, said:

“People planning a funeral are being exploited at one of the most emotional and stressful times in their lives.

“Huge upfront costs and unclear fees are far too common, with thousands of pounds of ‘extras’ often added to bills. 

“We help hundreds of people each year who come to us unable to understand fees or who simply cannot afford the cost.

“The CMA’s study on funeral prices and services is a positive step, and it’s essential for the authority to take swift action if they find it’s needed.”
