"My mother recently passed away and when I was going through her papers I found a certificate for a funeral plan that was commenced in 1978. I tried to find out more details about the fund but could not find anything on the internet as the company does not exist anymore and was taken over by another company. In my internet searching I came across the eziFunerals website where I found that you could request, for a small fee, them to search for missing funeral plans. To my surprise they called me today with the fantastic news that they had located my mother's funeral plan. Thank you for the time and effort they put into this search for me. A job well done!"
"eziFunerals offered a quick and efficient service that ultimately saved the Estate around $2,500 without any discernible loss of quality of the funeral itself and the service provided. It puts you the consumer in the driver's seat at a time when you may be upset and distracted and vulnerable to the sales tactics of the major funeral providers."
"eziFunerals provides options in a seemingly option starved industry. Each private director that was alerted and responded to me was different in approach, had a good balance of care and information and assertion."
"Thanks to eziFunerals for taking all the pressure of arranging a funeral for a loved one. The whole experience put the whole family at ease during such a sad time."
"Simply Amazing."
"Got what needed to be done in an efficient and professional manner."
