How much does a Southern Co-op Funeral Plan cost?

We can supply you with a free no obligation quotation detailing all of these costs. Please note, an additional administration charge of £250 applies to all our funeral plans.

Will there be anything else to pay for at the time of the funeral?

A Southern Co-op Funeral Plan fixes the funeral services paid for with no hidden charges or conditions. Subject to terms and conditions.

Will a Southern Co-op Funeral Plan cover costs if I die abroad?

The Southern Co-op Funeral Plan does not cover funerals that take place aboard. If you plan to go abroad, you should ensure that your travel or medical insurance policy includes full cover for repatriation costs. Once repatriated to the UK, the funeral plan can then be used to arrange the funeral as normal.

How do I pay for a Southern Co-op Funeral Plan?

Payment for a Southern Co-op Funeral Plan can be made online safely via Worldpay using a credit or debit card as a one off payment. We also offer an easy payment scheme to spread the cost over, 12, 18 or 24 months through monthly instalments, securing the cost for a fixed monthly payment. Instalment charges apply to 18 or 24 month options.

If I die prior to completing the instalment plan, is my funeral plan still valid?

In the event of death within the first 24 months of an instalment plan - the purchased price will still be honoured as long as any outstanding balance is paid in full. If a death occurs after 24 months of an instalment plan - the plan will be honoured without any further payments being required. Subject to terms and conditions.

How will the person arranging my funeral know what to do when the time comes?

It is important to let the next of kin or executor know that you have arranged a Southern Co-op Funeral Plan and where the funeral plan certificate can be found. You also have the option to add a nominated representative whom can act on your behalf and be included in any relevant communications. At the time of need, they must contact us and we will organise the funeral arrangements.

If you change your mind and want to cancel a funeral plan outside our 30 day cooling-off period, the amount returned will be the monies paid into the funeral plan, minus any applicable administration and cancellation fees. Subject to terms and conditions.

Can I change a Southern Co-op Funeral Plan if my wishes change?

Yes, you can alter your funeral plan arrangements at any time. Any products and services added will be charged at the current price.

When do I need to register a death by?

By law, all deaths in England and Wales must be registered, normally within five days (unless by prior arrangement with the registrar).

What does the Registrar need to know?

  • Date and place of death
  • The person’s full name (and maiden name, if applicable)
  • The person’s date and place of birth
  • Their occupation
  • Their last address
  • Whether they were in receipt of a State Pension or other benefits
  • Full name, date of birth and occupation of a surviving or late spouse or civil partner

Where do I register the death?

It is advisable to go to the registration office in the area in which the person died, as you will receive the documents you need on the day. If you use a different register office, it will take longer to get the documents you need which could delay the funeral arrangements. Registering the death will involve some simple questions and the process normally takes about 30 minutes at the registration office. It is likely that you will need to make an appointment in advance.

Who can register a death?

There are a number of people who can register a death;
  • A relative
  • Someone present at the death
  • An occupant of the house where the death occurred
  • An official from the hospital where the death occurred
  • The person making the arrangements with the funeral directors
