- Rating 4.012 February 2019Service was very efficient and very dignified. The items included in the package were given in a very misleading way leading to an additional charge of £250.00 which the two of us present were to say the least very unhappy about. I would recommend the service but warn to not accept anything other than a full written quote to show what is included, as they can say anything after the event.
- Rating 5.08 February 2019I would like to thank all the staff at Embersons on behalf of myself and my sister as we thought their service was excellent. They attended to all our needs and did a first class service during the few weeks over Christmas when our mum passed away. They were caring, considerate and exceptional attention to detail. They even provided regular welfare checks for me and my sister to see how we were coping after mum's death. Their service was excellent and we thank you again for all that you did.Response on behalf of J W Emberson Funeral Directors8 February 2019Thank you for taking the time to send your online review to us.
