If you have the capability, it pays to do a comparison of price and services dependant on who you are. Please know that funeral homes don't need to be licensed, trained, qualified or registered by a governing compliance body that oversees professional conduct. Evidently the experience varies with this business dependent on what you mean to them. This review will reach the right ears that need it.
I have made an official complaint submission to NSW Fair Trading. Michelle is Machiavellian in nature, misleading and explicitly clear with her communication of what we were entitled to do with respect
