Stephen Barber, on Trustpilot 16 Aug 2025
An affordable, no-nonsense funeral plan.
Stephen, on Trustpilot 11 Aug 2025
After researching various companies I recently decided to sign up with Distinct Cremations for a payment plan for myself and am very satisfied with my choice. Communication and information was excellent and the staff I spoke with on more than one occasion were very polite, courteous and professional, answering all my questions. (P.S. Not to be confused with another company of a similar sounding name!)
Catherine Johnson, on Google 5 Aug 2025
Both my parents had plans with Distinct Cremations and both have now died. In both instances the service I received was considerate, prompt and made things as simple as possible. I was talked through the necessary paperwork, which involved the coroner in one instance, and was kept fully informed throughout the entire process up to and after the cremation. A plan with Distinct Cremations took away a lot of admin and decision making and I would recommend them wholeheartedly.

Ella Rose Ann Clarke, on Feefo 26 Jul 2025

Sara June Smith, on Feefo 24 Jul 2025
Service was caring and sincere we could not have asked for more. Exceeded my expectations on every aspect
Christine Broadbent, on Trustpilot 23 Jul 2025
My step-father, who recently passed away, had a pre-paid funeral plan with Distinct Cremations. Maxine, our coordinator, was so caring and compassionate. She guided us and offered support from the time my step-father passed away, to the days leading up to his funeral. She made a very sad and stressful time so much easier with her empathetic and kind support. I cannot reccommend Distinct Cremations enough.
Ms Susan Cook, on Trustpilot 22 Jul 2025
When my mother passed away in April at the age of 105, I turned to Distinct Cremations to take care of the arrangements. I had heard how caring and attentive they were, and they truly lived up to that reputation. Their communication was personal, sensitive and efficient, and every detail was handled with dignity and respect. It gave me peace of mind at a difficult time. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
