I responded to a website ad by Legacy Wills and was quoted £29.99 for mirror wills  I suspect that when taking details in a phone session more costs will arise but it seems to be too good to be true.

I've paid -not much to lose - and got the terms and conditions.which look reasonable.  Standard practice is that they store the wills for an unspecified cost but will send them to us for a £50 charge.

Wills will be very straightforward -we own the house, only beneficiaries will be our daughters.

Thoughts on this very welcome.

I've recently used wills.services to create my will to make sure I've got everything covered for my partner and son. I paid £29.99 for mine but also noticed that they had a free will option for NHS staff, which I thought was a lovely gesture.

Based on my own experience, I don't think there is anything wrong with using online will providers as long as you have some support along the way for peace of mind you've included everything you need to. 

What sort of support have you had? Frankly the only experience that is valid is that of your loved ones after you have died as that is the time any deficiencies in your will are discovered by which time it is to late.

If they are pretty standard, straight forward wills then I don't see the issue myself. The most important thing is to make a will in the first place.

Many people think their wills are standard and straightforward. Then they are asked some of the 'what if' questions, and they realise that it's more complicated than they thought.

You.or your relatives, will only know if it is correct when you/ they try to use it.
