5 Reasons Why You Need a Funeral Policy

5 Reasons Why You Need a Funeral Policy

---

Our funeral policy is a vital product to have. The main aim of this type of policy is to eliminate the financial burden when a family member passes away. You pay a small monthly premium to our underwriter. In return, we administer the policy on your behalf and avail ourselves to serve you and your family, in event of a loss, by performing a dignified, deserving funeral.

Funerals are COSTLY. Not having funds available can be devastating. In this blog, we will discuss 5 reasons why you need to take a funeral policy for you and your family.

Firstly, let’s look at why you need our funeral policy:

1. You get peace of mind. If something happens to you, you know that your family will be free of financial obligation. The last thing anybody wants is to have their family suffer when they pass away. You can rest assured knowing that you will get the funeral that you deserve.

2. We assist from the first call. As honorable service providers, you will get help arranging the funeral. This means that you will have experienced people on call to help you with everything. Arranging a funeral can be stressful and a lot of work. If you do not know exactly what you need to do, it can be difficult. Our professional help and guidance enables you to focus on healing and being there for your grieving family.

3. Convenient payment method. We like to remind our members, upon joining our policy, that it should be something to just sign up for and thereafter forget about. This is because our members and all those who know about us have an automatic sense of security knowing that their arrangements are in the right hands. We also have a monthly debit order facility in place, which eliminates the hassle in scurrying about to make manual payments. 

4. It is affordable. Funerals are really expensive, and that's before providing for catering. With a proper, dignified service costing an average of tens of thousands of Rands, it can be difficult to gather such an amount of money in such a short space of time. With our funeral plan, you pay from as little as R61 per month. This helps spread the costs and accounts for price inflations over time. 

5. The calibre of your service provider. Service is something that we not just pride ourselves on - we're meticulous about it. From the manner in which our team present themselves to our unique, luxury fleet of service vehicles, we do not cut corners. Our partner firm, the esteemed T.G. Govender and Son, is a name that has been highly regarded in undertaking circles, for over 50 years. 

So Consider This

There are many reasons why you need to have a funeral policy. It is the responsible thing to do. The sad reality is that everybody will eventually pass away. There is no such thing as living forever. You need to make sure that you are prepared for your passing, and although it is not a nice topic to discuss, let alone face, it is unfortunately something you need to be prepared for.
