My late husband chose Pure Cremation as he didn’t want any fuss or funeral because of warring relatives. Initial contact was long and drawn out as the lady who took my call was training. I was asked for personal information about my husband’s death and the lady said “smashing” which I thought was highly inappropriate and upsetting. The second time I spoke to them it was extremely repetitive and monotonous to say the least. It took a long time to get a registrars appointment because of Easter and they needed the green slip from them in order for him to be cremated. Altogether the time was really long before I got my husband home, from his passing on 19.3.24 to 22.4.24.

We chose an attended cremation and it was lovely. We decided to sing some hymns, have poem , and a short pray. We decided on this type of funeral service so we could have a joyous memorial service at my sisters home town, 100 miles away and then bury her ashes in Mum and Dads grave. She had come to live with us to be looked after several years ago. I do feel this as a perfect solution not only because of the distance but it was less traumatising for my young grandchildren who wanted to say good bye.

Amazingly helpful and friendly service. Generally very good at keeping you up to date with the process, and very supportive. My only (small) criticism would be down to a delay in letting me know about returnin my wifes ashes, due to a bout of illness in one of their departments. Whilst I understand that this can happen, it was a bit disappointing to be promised a phone call, and for it not to happen.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We are concerned to hear about your experience, we understand how vital communication is at such a sensitive time and we would expect all promised contact to be made. We have raised this with a senior manager to look into and they will be in contact shortly. Kind regards, Pure Cremation Team

Very friendly staff. Felt like a bit more communication would of been nicer. Also, got the wrong wrap design on the ashes. The lady that delivered the ashes was amazing. So nice and understanding. Overall a really good easy and straightforward service.

The guys who collected my late mother were very professsional as has the rest of the team that I dealt with. My advice to others is to book an appointment with the registar as soon as possible to obtain the death certificate, have a web cam that will allow you to position it above any documents Pure Crem require rather than trying to move a laptop with a built in camera around to do the same thing. I would suggest that Pure Crem need need to rethink the design of their cremation urns. My mother's wish was to join my late father in a single urn and it was not an easy transfer and caused some issues but I got there in the end. Making it easier would take away any distress.

Kept up to date most of the time but although told I would be informed when my loved one was in your care, instead I had to ring to find out and what made it worse had been in your care for 5 days.

Very good, apart from putting wrong address to Farnborough instead of Chelsea London. Also taking longer than expected to get his Ashes back to Chelsea, than the 5 days after cremation that was quoted more like 10 days. Fortunately I hadn’t made any arrangements for his arrival.

Pure cremation took a lot of the hassle out of dealing with a difficult time. They kept me up to date with progress regularly and the cremation was completed in a timely manner. I was, however, a little surprised that they demanded immediate payment. Whilst I was able to cover the cost, I am sure many people might need to juggle funds to cover the cost. I found this element stressful.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, it's great to know that our support made things a little easier at such a difficult time. Looking after a loved one comes first. If your loved one passes away at home, in a nursing home or hospice we will not ask for any money before we set out. We do require full payment before booking the cremation. In all other cases, we ask for full payment before bringing your loved one into our care. Kind regards, Mia

Communication good at the start of the process but arranging the return of the Ashes very disappointing.

Does what it says on the tin. Surprised they do not have a representative in the East of England otherwise. Very happy with the service given.

Very impressed everyone I spoke to was very professional and helpful. My only concern is the time it took for the phones to be answered on the day I was reporting the death.

Would definitely recommend Pure Cremation if you want something relatively stess-free. My wife was diagnosed with terminal cancer at the end of September and we discussed what she wanted after she passed away. She didn't want a "traditional funeral" as they are too expensive and nobody likes attending, so we decided to go for a direct cremation. Saw the adverts on TV and social media for Pure Cremation and decided to use them. Did all the relevant "paperwork" online which was simplicity itself. Received the information pack a few days later followed by a telephone call welcoming me. Sadly my wife passed away at the end of October at home, and after confirmation had been given it was a case of calling them to let them know. We were told that the team would be sent to collect my wife, and we would receive a call letting us know what time they would arrive. Sadly we heard nothing so my Son called to be told they were 4 minutes away. Not good as they would have turned up at the door before the family were prepared. The team that collected my wife, treated her with care and respect. When they placed her into the van, once the rear doors were closed softly they both walked away from the van, turned and bowed. They drove away very very slowly until we could no longer see them. I was kept informed as to what was going to happen to my wife, including the date of the cremation. I received a call the day after confirming it had taken place and that they would be in touch once the ashes were very to be returned. I received a call from the driver telling me he would arrive between 10.30 and 10.45 today, which he did. Again, he was very professional and treated my wifes ashes with care. If I am honest, based on the price, I expected a white transit van (the one used carried the Pure Cremation logo etc), for a couple of people to rush in, pick up my wife and put her in a body bag, "throw her" into the van and speed off to the next "job". Nothing is further from the truth. In my opinion, and based on past experience of funeral directors, Pure Cremation are far superior. So much so, I will be arranging mine later today. There are 2 reasons that I can't give 5 stars. Firstly, the issue with not receiving the telephone call referred to above. Secondly, and more importantly, my wife's name is Tracey, and my contact was called Tracy Robinson. I would have hoped that they would think that this was a bit insensitive and allocate someone else. However, Tracy was fantastic.

Firstly, please accept our sincere apologies for not calling when promised. However, taking out a plan after experiencing our care for a loved one is the highest compliment that we can receive. Thank you for these kind words. Kind regards, Chloe

The whole service from start to finish was professional and caring. They arranged a package suitable for my mother and kept us informed of when Mum was collected from the hospital before cremation. My only advice to customers is when calling to check on the very first call when there is availability for the funeral at your chosen location bedore you pay as we had to wait over a month for the funeral which fortunately worked out very well for us in the end with all the things we needed to organise for Mum beforehand. Otherwise this was exactly what Mum would of wanted. Thank you Pure Cremation, it was a beautiful send off.
