I haven’t purchased anything from the farewell guide so I find it crafty to be asked to give a review to a service not received.

It's a difficult time so it was great to have the information all available and accurate. The funeral itself related to my father in law so maybe easier for me as I wasn't so emotionally involved but still found the site an invaluable resource

Guided all the way
Used this amazing system to guide us when my father died. It offered several local providers and we were able to book with one we had assumed would be outside our price bracket but wasn’t. The helpful tips on the site enabled us to make sensible choices. And being able to make those choices without the pressure of being in the room with a provider was very much better for our family.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience. We are truly honoured that our service was able to support you and your family during such a difficult time.
It is wonderful to hear that the platform helped you compare local providers and even book with a funeral director you thought might be outside your budget. That is exactly why The Farewell Guide exists to give families clarity, choice, and confidence without the pressure of making decisions in a room under emotional strain.
We are so glad the helpful tips on the site made a difference and allowed you to make sensible choices that felt right for your family. If you ever need support again or have suggestions for how we can improve, we are always here.

I was introduced via a friend that used the farewell guide and honestly I cannot tell you how much they helped us. We found a funeral plan that suited us, it was simple, we weren’t badgered and we knew what was on offer for our budget. Then got a couple of call backs from advisers and we are all sorted for the future. Thanks

What a great idea to help find a funeral company. I found it easy to use when looking to plan ahead. So many things I hadn’t considered and it’s made it less stressful than ringing around to find a provider and having to repeat over and over what I wanted and what I could afford.

Such a valuable support during our time…
Such a valuable support during our time of need. Firstly I have read the reviews and I am shocked consumers do not get benefit from this FREE to use site. It offered me and my sister, a planner to share and then we could reach out to get in touch with trusted funeral directors. Also allow us to make financial plans before appointing a director. The mind boggles as to what more a free site can do for people. We found a wonderfully kind funeral director and they called us back on a Sunday - this is the only online INDEPENDENT funeral site that we found. Thank you!

We built The Farewell Guide to bring clarity, choice, and trust to funeral planning, and your words remind us why that mission matters. We are so glad it made a difference for you.
With heartfelt thanks - The Farewell Guide.

Hi SK,
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your experience did not meet expectations.
We have only recently seen this review, as we are not a Trustpilot member and were not notified when it was originally posted. When we flagged the review, Trustpilot requested further information from you to help us investigate, but we did not receive a response.
Unfortunately, we do not have a record of a user under the name SK in our system, which makes it difficult to verify whether the enquiry was submitted through our platform.
If you did use our service, we would genuinely appreciate the opportunity to understand what happened and make it right. Please feel free to contact us directly on 01270 447774 or email hello@thefarewellguide.co.uk.
We would be happy to walk you through how the service works and assist you personally.
While contacting a funeral director directly is always your choice, it can limit your ability to compare services, pricing, and approaches.
The Farewell Guide is designed to give users transparency and choice, and to help them fined trusted funeral directors, share funeral wishes with loved ones and collaborate on planning.
Research shows that 99 percent of people do not know their loved ones’ funeral wishes, and 70 percent go with the first funeral director they speak to, often without comparing options.
We are proud to be the only free independent funeral planning and comparison site in the UK, and we have supported over 12,700 people this year alone. We are growing month on month because people value the clarity, compassion, and control our service provides.
As a free service to consumers, we are limited in how much time and outreach we can dedicate to each case, but we genuinely try our best to help every user. We simply hope to offer support and transparency at a time when people are often vulnerable and overwhelmed.
We would truly cherish the opportunity to make this right and hopefully turn that one star into five.
Warm regards - The Farewell Guide
Absolute waste of time
Absolute waste of time. Never heard back from a single business. The farewell guide emailed to ask if I had found a company, I replied to say I had no responses and then never heard from the farewell guide again either!

Hi Valerie,
Thank you for your feedback. We are genuinely sorry to hear that your experience did not meet expectations.
Your funeral contact request was submitted as “at-need,” which is intended for funerals required immediately. However, it appeared to be a request for your own funeral, which flagged it internally as potentially a prepaid funeral enquiry for the future. We attempted to verify this with you to ensure the correct support was provided.
We called the landline number you originally provided over five times, including after your review was posted when you supplied us with a mobile number, and left a voicemail.
When you flagged your review, you shared a mobile number, and we followed up again with further calls and voicemails. Sadly, we have not heard back from you. It’s possible you may have missed our calls, especially if the landline was not regularly monitored.
As a free service to consumers, we are limited in how much time and resource we can dedicate to individual follow-ups, but we genuinely did try to reach you and support your enquiry.
We understand your frustration, but we do feel that describing our service as a “complete waste of time” is a bit harsh, especially given the efforts made to assist and clarify your request. We are actively reviewing our processes to ensure better communication and outcomes for all users. I am afraid we were not a member of Trustpilot and have only just seen your review.
If you would like to speak with us directly, we would welcome the opportunity to help and allow you to see how we work as we are such a great company and I hope you get to see that. Please contact support@thefarewellguide.com or call 01270 447774.
Warm regards - The Farewell Guide
