  • 3 Tina Wolsoncroft 24th Mar 2023

    For the amount of money being spent I expect someone to answer the phone and not wait up to 24 hours for someone to contact me. One one occasion my call was not returned and I had to drive from Kent to Southend to get a response, I was also not kept updated thoroughly and received unexpected calls from other parties at difficult times. I was also contacted by email which was not discussed or agreed by me and on occasions I had to correct previous arrangements made. This all left the family feeling uncertain as to how the day would proceed.

    I found everyone in your Southend office most helpful caring and respectful. I visited my aunt Jessie to say my own personal goodbye and everything was beautifully prepared. The funeral was conducted in a most  respectful way. Thank you for all your thoughtfulness. 

  • 5 Ann Noon 23rd Jan 2023

    Thank you so much to Malissa and the team for everything they did for us and our beautiful mum. We are extremely grateful and would fully recommend your services to everyone. 

  • 5 Tina Connor 17th Jan 2023

    Very helpful, caring staff, everything went to plan. Thank you.

  • 5 Regina Wales 16th Jan 2023

    Everything was made very easy with the help of the staff

  • 5 Cynthia Sackman 7th Jan 2023

    We were looked after extremely well by all the team.

  • 5 Jacqueline Olver 4th Jan 2023

    From start to finish the communication was made easy. The discussion to arrange our mum's was sensitively handled and helped us to feel we would have what we wanted at such a difficult time. They called to check everything again before the day and the actual day went as well as it possibly could. I would definitely recommend them.

  • 4 Frederick Wright 3rd Jan 2023

    All really good - from original meeting to actual cremation. The only point I would add is that where we did not require the car that was part of the Silver Funeral Plan I feel the service sheets costing £78 could have been 
    provided free of charge.
     I appreciate these were outsourced but Coop did not have   to pay for driver and petrol. 

  • 5 Annette Curtis 3rd Jan 2023

    The service I received for my late dear mother was excellent from start to finish. I couldn’t of wished for anything better. The kindness and care was very professional. Thank you so much.

    The co-op did a wonderful funeral for my Grandmother. It was a lovely send off.
    Many thanks

  • 3 Natalie Snow 19th Dec 2022

    Pretty basic service, not that impressed with the contact, I know it was a direct cremation but id still expect the same level of care -when I phoned to instruct the undertakers, I didn’t even get a “sorry for your loss” 

    The ladies in the local office were friendly but still, I booked a telephone appointment and had to wait over half an hour past the time when I then phoned them .  

  • 5 Collen Baffana 12th Dec 2022

    If you are looking for a first-class service, look no further. Incredibly supportive and excellent guidance if experiencing funeral planning for the first time.

  • 5 Beryl Smith 29th Nov 2022

    Malissa and everyone at the Co-op Southend treated Brian and me with care, empathy and professionalism.
    The Funeral Director on the day, Jamie, went the extra mile quite literally to ensure that Brian’s service wasn’t rushed. I can’t begin to say how much that meant.
    Thank you Co-op Southend.

  • 5 Wendy Clover 22nd Nov 2022

    We would like to thank everyone from Southend Co-op Funeral Directors for the kind, caring and professional way that they took care of our mum’s funeral.  From the moment we walked into the Funeral Parlour we felt we mattered, and that all our requests were met with sympathy and respect, and that they had time to listen to us in between all our tears!  On the day of our mum’s funeral the cars were immaculate and the hearse drivers were extremely kind, sympathetic and very professional.  They looked extremely smart too, and the whole family felt we could not have asked for anything better.  Thank you so much to all concerned for everything in helping us get through our very emotional and extremely sad day. Thank you so much.

  • 5 Gina Prebble 22nd Nov 2022

    In such sad circumstances we met with Malissa who was very professional and knowledgable showing us great kindness, respect and  sympathy in helping us throughout the arrangements of my brothers funeral which we cannot thank her enough. 

  • 5 Les Daley 22nd Nov 2022

    Very Professional gentleman.

  • 5 Margaret Mathews 14th Nov 2022

    As a family we couldn't have asked for better service. Steve, Malissa and Phoebe were so restful, helpful and caring. The small personal touches did not go unnoticed and we all felt as though our wonderful dad had the send off that he deserved. We thank the team for all they did for us and the care they took with dad.
