Completely above board, super polite and really helpful. I didn’t need a new plan since I already got one sorted, but if I hadn’t, I’d definitely be keen - could save a fair bit of cash.

Got a sales call about prepaid funeral plans, they rang my mum who’s 81. She told them she’s not allowed to chat about stuff like that, it’s a rule from her daughters! We keep warning her cause she gets loads of these calls all the time. Problem is, mum’s started giving out my number to them! Anyway, I told those people to remove mine and mum’s details from their list as we really don’t want or need their offers - they said they’d do it. We’ll see if they actually do.

These folks keep ringing me non stop. When I do pick up, they’re straight into their sales spiel about funeral plans. I tell em I’ve already got it sorted, so I’m not interested. They sound polite enough, but no matter how many times I ask to be taken off their list, the calls just keep coming. If I don’t answer and let the answering machine get it, they just hang up. Lately, they’ve been calling almost every day, always about the same time too.

Brilliant firm named Choice Future Planning sorted out my funeral arrangements and was with me every step of the way. A lovely bloke called Dale Conway was the one who helped organise everything and took care of all my requirements.

I informed him that I was facing terminal cancer, and I made it clear how appalling it was for him to ring me in the morning to pitch a funeral plan. He suddenly claimed that if he had known about my situation, he wouldn't have bothered me. When I retorted and mentioned that he might be tormenting others as well, he simply disconnected the call. Now, who do we turn to with this complaint? Who's actually going to take any steps to address this? It feels as though we are utterly powerless in halting these unsolicited calls, as both Caller ID and the Telephone Preference Service prove to be next to useless in dealing with such intrusive practices. What’s our course of action?

I am thoroughly fed up with this firm’s incessant calls. I've repeatedly asked them to cease contacting me, yet here we are. Just today, I’ve had two calls-first, a young lady and then, within mere minutes, a chap rang me up. Seriously, what part of 'please do not phone me' is it that they fail to grasp?

Some woman called Pam rang me and was proper rude. I told her I'd just got in from work and had been to the docs because I wasn’t feeling great. She didn’t even care and just kept pushing her spiel. I said it was really not the time, I felt unwell and wasn’t interested, but she just said “you don’t even know what I gotta say yet.” I told her it was horrible to be hassled about funerals like this and she just said “what’s so awful about it?” I told them to remove me from their list and hung up. Not a single bit of politeness from her!

I received a rather peculiar phone call on Thursday, the 3rd of March, 2016. The caller identified himself as Dale Conway from Dignity Funerals, and he was rather insistent about getting me to take out a funeral policy. He maintained that it would be wiser not to burden my family with the costs later on. He quoted me a rate of £29 a month, assuring me it was a fixed price. He seemed to want an immediate decision and requested my bank details right then and there. I made it clear that I wasn’t comfortable sharing such information over the phone, and abruptly, he hung up on me. Quite the strange encounter, indeed!

I was utterly dismayed to get an alarming phone call from this number. They claimed to represent First Choice Funeral Plan, asking for my wife directly, who is battling terminal cancer. This was the last thing she needed to hear right now. I'm baffled as to how they obtained her number in the first place. After reaching out to First Choice for clarification, they were evasive about disclosing the third party involved. I strongly urge everyone to exercise caution with First Choice's methods. Consider yourself warned about this number: 0191740037.

Choice Future Planning teamed up with Dignity to offer pre-paid funeral plans. Everything seemed proper and above board, just not something I was keen on since I’ve already got enough saved up for my funeral.

i have checked this number on loads of review websites and most of the feedback is negative, but funny enough on the 19th of January there’s a comment that’s positive on a few of them. honestly, it wouldnt shock me if someone from Choice Future Planning has been posting those themselves.

A firm specialising in outsourcing is shedding light on the escalating expenses associated with funerals in the UK, highlighting ways to safeguard yourself and your family from potential financial strain. I found their team exceptionally courteous and genuinely eager to assist. Just a thought, perhaps those of you receiving unsolicited calls might reconsider sharing your phone number for surveys and competitions? Personally, I participate in these surveys, and when I engage with those on the other end, I often discover they offer quite a bit of valuable help.

06/01/2016, a nice person calling about prepaid funeral plans. I said I wasn’t looking to sort that out any time soon, plus their timing was awful as my dad had just passed away not long ago. Then I just hung up on them.

I must say, this company's tenacity is quite remarkable! Despite being registered with the Telephone Preference Service and other similar measures, I find myself inundated with calls from them-19 times in a single day, no less! I’ve taken to ignoring my phone altogether now, opting instead to ring 1471 to jot down the numbers. It's become such a hassle that I’ve had to request my clients reach me on my mobile instead!

Initially, the caller was quite courteous, but as the discussion progressed, he became increasingly aggressive. When I mentioned that we had explored various options and concluded they weren’t suitable for us, he suggested we must have been considering the wrong ones. After kindly expressing my disinterest and thanking him for his time, he refused to back off. Ultimately, I had to inform him that I would hang up, which I did. He simply wouldn't accept my refusal.

I received a rather intrusive call from a chap attempting to pitch me a funeral plan. His approach was quite off-putting, implying it would be irresponsible to burden my family with such matters. I made it clear that it was none of his affair and promptly hung up on him. Quite disgraceful behaviour, if you ask me!

My partner had the misfortune of encountering an exceedingly rude and relentless woman on the other end of the line. It took a tedious seven minutes to finally extricate ourselves from that unsolicited call, all while maintaining our decorum and steering clear of any harsh words. It does boggle the mind why the telephone provider permits such individuals to possess a phone line in the first place. Surely, they ought to shoulder some of the accountability for this hassle!

I keep getting these annoying phone calls where they either hang up or can't fathom the word 'NO.’ Honestly, I'm about done with their incessant surveys. I've requested them to take me off their call list, but it seems my pleas have fallen on deaf ears. So, to shake things up, I've started dragging out the conversation, hoping to run their phone bill up a bit. Perhaps if we all join this little game, they’ll finally start to get the hint!

Really pushy trying to sell a funeral plan, even after me saying loads of times I wasn’t interested or needed one. They kept going on, even when I said I’d end the call, so I had to hang up in the end. Feels like someone more vulnerable could easily get pressured by them.

I've been approached about a pre-paid funeral plan, and the next time they ring, I can just imagine them probing me on how I came across their details. It's not your everyday cold call, that's for sure! It seems like they have some sort of specifics in their data, pinpointing particular demographics to reach out to. Quite the tactic, wouldn't you agree?
