Recent reports suggest that Iberian Funeral Plans may have ceased trading, leaving customers uncertain about the security of their pre-paid funeral plans. While we are still gathering information, this situation highlights the risks of purchasing plans from unregulated providers. If you have been affected, we sincerely sympathise and want to help.
Regulated Funeral Plans Offer Protection
If you have purchased a plan from a regulated provider, there is no cause for concern. In Spain, Portugal and Cyprus there are only two funeral plan providers currently operating that are regulated:
- Avalon Funeral Plans
- Golden Leaves
These companies are fully authorised and regulated in the UK, ensuring that your investment is protected by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS). This is the same scheme that safeguards up to £85,000 in UK bank accounts, guaranteeing either an equivalent funeral plan or financial compensation at the current market value in the unlikely event of a provider’s failure.
An unregulated funeral plan does not have this.
What Can You Do If You Have an Iberian Plan or Another Unregulated Plan?
If you hold a funeral plan with Iberian Funeral Plans or any other unregulated provider, we strongly recommend acting quickly to secure your arrangements.
