Actually it is really just for funeral costs. Do you think funeral plan is best? What happens if I die before I have paid it all though?This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
Why not merely save and stipulate in Will that this account is for funeral. Set up RS with HSBC/FD returning 5-6% interest?Debt is a symptom, solve the problem.0

Not having a lot of disposable income to pay out each month, I am worried that if I WAS to die earlier than I hope, there would not be enough to cover the expenses.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -

Are you a single homeowner? Proceeds from the sale of your property could cover funeral costs.
I have a husband & I want to ensure he or other family members have instant access to money to cover funeral costs. So far it looks like British Seniors are best, but just wondered if anyone knew anything better.This is a system account and does not represent a real person.

Yes, but if my husband is still alive....he is 12 years younger than me, so he could still be, ...he will not be wanting to sell the house.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0
