Not sure if this is the right section

Does anyone have any experience of Pure Cremations? Have they been part of the CMA investigations into the funeral sector? and would you recommend them?

I’ll be interested in any replies to your question, granny, as it’s something which were both wanting when our time comes.
On the face of it, it looks ideal, have you heard otherwise?

With all these pre-paid funeral firms is your cash secure or could they go bust before you die & leave you out of pocket?
they say it's secure, davebro, the money's put into a trust till needed.
Isn't that the same as direct cremation that many funeral directors offer nowadays? I`d be inclined to just put a bit of money away myself if I needed to save for that rather than giving it to a company. Just my opinion though.
Yes, sj, that’s the same thing and what we’re contemplating doing. We don’t want a funeral plan now, but we do both want a direct (or pure as it’s sometimes called) cremation.
Sorry granny, I didn’t answer you. I think what we’ve been looking at is different to what you’ve been contemplating doing, or your brother in law is.
We’re not wanting an advance funeral plan, we just want as simple and cheap a way of getting rid of our remains as possible.
Always check the prices offered by your local funeral director, they have been doing direct to crem funerals for many years and will use the nearest crematorium.
In fact my local funeral director charges £1300 for a traditional funeral, with the cheapest coffin, hearse and service early morning or late afternoon (our local crem is cheaper off peak).
Yes, I used Pure Cremation (the company with that name) three years ago. There was no "funeral plan" involved, just a one-off payment. They were excellent...couldn't have been better, in fact. I will be using them again when necessary...but hopefully not for a long while!
I have a bit in my will stating that there will be no funeral service and I am to have a direct cremation.

some doubts being raised then -

"I understand that this discussion is from a year ago, but the topic of choosing a funeral service provider remains relevant. When making such an important decision, it's crucial to gather information and consider all options.I still recommend researching Pure Cremations and seeking out recent reviews and testimonials to get a current sense of their services.If you're interested in eco-friendly alternatives, https://greenfarewells.com/aquamation/ provides Aquamation, a sustainable option that's gentle on the environment. Ultimately, the goal is to find a service that meets your needs and aligns with your values. "
