Don't panic if something happens ! Trouble with funeral services

When my father passed away, I had him laid to rest at a funeral home that advertised affordable prices for family funerals and also requested a funeral estimate. The advertisement said "family funeral from about 400,000 yen," but the person in charge, who claimed to be a planner, told me "we can't do this plan for your house," and then added more options. The price list was in the hand of the person in charge, and we could not see it clearly. When we were surprised that the total cost was almost 3 million yen, the planner recommended a set plan of 2.5 million yen for a family funeral, and we had no choice but to sign the contract. We were dissatisfied with the high cost, which was different from what was advertised. ( 60s )

< A word of advice >

Even though funeral services can be expensive, costing several million yen depending on the size, there is not enough time for consideration and preparation. Therefore, it is important to gather information in advance. You can prepare calmly by using advance consultation services, deciding in advance the general details you wish to have, and finding a funeral home to request.
It is not always possible to receive services at the advertised price. Take more than one person to a meeting with the funeral home, review the estimate carefully, and confirm anything that is unclear.
If you are in trouble, please contact your local government consumer affairs center, etc. ( Consumer Hotline 188 ).
