I found everyone I met at Thatcham Funeral Care excellent. Your branch in Tadley was equally helpful. The director on the day (Mike Allison's Cremation 6.2.24) was just wonderful - thank you Jo. Kindest regards to all. (Leanne ,Katie, and Jo. Anne Allison

    The funeral was extremely well done and very personal to Mum. Jo was discreet and professional with one of my family contacting me to state how friendly she was.
    Everything was done according to our wishes and was checked with me and my brother before proceeding.

    Thankyou.

    Leanne who managed the whole process of my Mother's funeral was both very professional and caring in supporting my family through this sad time. From her guidance through options to helping put in place personal touches, we are hugely grateful to the whole team for making it a really good send off for Patricia. We highly recommend Thatcham Funeralcare.

  • 3 Jill Self 19th Sep 2023

    They corseted me a lot of stress, by taking my dads headstone without permission, there were lots of little hip ups on the way   And for the victor he was shocking 

  • 5 Janet Starrs 11th Sep 2023

    Very good care done everything we wanted cannot fault them

  • 2 Graham Parsons 11th Sep 2023

    The actual service was fine. However the attention to detail from the office staff & the lack of communication between themselves was poor. Also the phone calls from CO OP trying to sell "other services" was most unwelcome. "CO OP IT'S WHAT WE DO", yes poorly.

  • 2 Ann Clarke 29th Aug 2023

    There are things that need some attention. 
    The web site needs updating so that visitors do not visit 31a  as directed on the web. They  then do not get a response because in fact you have moved next door.There is a notice on the door  but there is still confusion
    There needs to be someone in the office at all times and someone to answer the phone at all times. To be put through to another branch should not be necessary and to have to be put through to a call centre in Manchester is not acceptable. It is obvious to me that the organisation is under staffed

    More explanation should be given about what is included in the plan chosen. The cheaper option  is too basic and does not even include the printing of the service sheets.There seems to be no flexibility between the two options because of policy
    This means that it is difficult to plan the occasion to suit the  individual needs.The contact sheets for organising your own flowers is not up to date as some of them no longer exist.

    When visiting the office one should always be offered a seat which is common courtesy. As an elderly person I would have appreciated that.

    I did not meet the person  (Darren)who was to be in charge at the crematorium  until the actual day.I would have been more confident had I met him before. He should have had his jacket cleaned before the occasion as it was grubby.

    Apart from all that the service went as I expected -- but then I had planned it
    The task was completed  in a timely fashion

  • 5 Emma Fox 29th Aug 2023

    Absolutely outstanding service

  • 5 Martyn Kemp 31st Jul 2023

    Leanne went above and beyond to help us as a family in a horrible situation, but Leanne really put our minds at rest ans we would highly recommend this company 

  • 5 Teresa Smith 31st Jul 2023

    Very respectful & professional 

  • 4 Christine Ballard 24th Jul 2023

    Very caring and supportive at a difficult time. We were kept informed and any questions answered quickly. 
    Would definitely recommend them 

  • 5 Sally Hawkins 24th Jul 2023

    I am so pleased with the way the funeral girls treated us with Justin's funeral, they was very kind, understanding and answered any questions that I asked. I would recommend them to anyone. I can not remember the young lady who was dealing with the arrangements first, but she was amazing. She was on leave on the day of the funeral, and the next lady was fantasticas well. Sally Hawkins, partner of Justin Pottinger-Smith.

  • 5 Paul Pierce 22nd Jul 2023

    Very easy to organise the funeral and staff were helpful and understanding.
    They returned personal effects of the deceased quickly and in a soft pouch with card attached.
    I received invoices through the post quickly.

  • 5 Diane Rosier 10th Jul 2023
