Funeral Planning

Pre-planning a funeral means taking care of funeral service details in advance.

You can make decisions regarding the type of funeral service, venue, music, flowers, guest list and so on. All your wishes are complied on a file. At the time of need, a call to the funeral home is all that is required. All your wishes will be carried out as planned.

Benefits of Pre-Planning Your Funeral

Protection and Peace of Mind

Pre-planning your funeral allows you to make sound decisions regarding the service. Here there are no decisions made out of emotions.

We will keep a record of all the important statistics required for legal paperwork. Giving you the peace of mind that everything will be completed in a systematic manner.

Lightens the Financial Burden

When you plan a funeral service in advance it allows you to choose your service according to your preference level. It also allows you to be aware of the funeral costs.

Funeral pre-funding can also be arranged. This way you can take care of the funeral expenses today, or choose to make the payments according to your budget.

Pre-Planning a Funeral Offers You Flexibility

If your preferences change at any time you can change your funeral plan. We understand that circumstances and personal preferences change over time and accordingly funeral wishes can also be changed.

Your Choices are Respected

Funeral pre-planning gives your the assurance that every detail has been taken care of just the way you want.

It also allows you to discuss your wishes with your family and consider their thoughts in your planning.

Options to Plannig and Pre-Pay Funeral Costs

Legacy Funerals are an agent for Sureplan Friendly Society Ltd.  Sureplan is a mutual life insurance company that is a specialist funeral fund provider. Sureplan has over 80 years of experience, commencing in 1935. Originally called The Public Service Death Benefit Society of Queensland.

Sureplan understand that members provide funds for their funeral expenses to relieve their family of much of the associated financial stress. That is why they guarantee to pay their funeral benefit within one working day of receiving independent confirmation of their death.

Depositing money into a Funeral Bond instead of a savings account for example, gives your family peace of mind. When the time comes Sureplan simply needs to be advised of the passing together with the name of the funeral director being used. From there they will organise for the claim to be processed without the family needing to complete any paperwork. Your family can immediately commence with funeral planning arrangements as claims are paid within 24 hours of the confirmation of death.

When considering a funeral bond it is imperative that you read the information contained in the Product Disclosure Statement.

Funeral Bond with Sureplan:

Sureplan’s funeral bond is called Sureplan Gold. It is a conservatively managed bond that allows you to put aside funds for your funeral expense. You can either invest a lump sum, or save using regular deposits from as little as $50 per month.

Sureplan Gold customers are not locked into a contract to pay monthly premiums. You choose how much to pay, and are free to change your savings program at any time. And crucially, as you do not have to make compulsory payments (as with other funeral insurance plans and cover), you will not lose any money if you fall into arrears – the funds will always be there for your family.

Sureplan Gold has some important benefits over traditional savings and investment funds. These include pension maximisation, reducing aged care costs and speedy claims. To view a detailed description of the Sureplan Gold Funeral Bond please follow this link.
