      Complaint Type:
      Service or Repair Issues
      Status:
      Answered
      Issues with Memorial Park Funeral Home & Cemetery not correcting my contract the same night that the contract was written. Paid down $630 & $370; $98.62x5($493.10); $58.47x5($292.35); TOTAL $1785.45. We had lost our only brother in July 2022, & was still grieving. Around Oct 31, 2022, we 6 sisters setup a family burial site at Memorial Park on ********** in *******, **. I dialed my 7th sister ****** in on my call with ********************* so that she would be the last of the sisters to take advantage of the deal that he told us was expiring on Nov 1st. *********** did not assign me the space that he promised. When I told *************** on that night that I only wanted the burial spot & not the 1 on top, didnt want the burial spot for my son, & definitely didnt want 2 different autopay coming off my credit card each month. He said that since it was getting late, he promised he would fix the contract correctly the next day & send me the corrected contract. That never happened. Each time I tried to contact him, there were different issues. Sometimes he would say that someone was out of *********** needed to be involved with the change, or someones child was sick, or someone close to him had passed & he was dealing with that, or sometimes his vms would be full & I couldnt leave a msg. At a point, he said his boss said this had been going on too long & he wanted him to resolve it for me. I was contacted by Memorial Park asking about service I received, & they said someone would call me back about my issues. I have called them repeatedly & sent Online messages. I recently got a call/text from *********************** 10/27-10/30 saying that he could resolve, if I make 2 monthly ************** by Nov 30. He asked me to call him back by 10/31. I called back & got vms, with no callback. Last contact attempts were on 10/31 with **** ******* who said someone would call me back, & I tried ****** again. Just wanted burial space with family. This has been very stressful for me. *******************

      My mother in law passed away November 2020. About 3 months prior to her passing, she pre-paid for her funeral expenses. She overpaid for services she didn't want, but we were assured her estate would be refunded. It took several months after her passing to receive the refund. It has now been 9 months since her passing, and she has no grave marker which was pre-paid for along with her other funeral arrangements. We have been asking for reasons for the delay and not receiving any concrete answers. The most recent excuse being that the design we approved was for a marker that was larger than what was paid for. When we asked why we weren't told of this discrepancy and how long had they known about this issue, we couldn't get an answer. We are extremely disappointed in how everything has been handled which contrasts dramatically in the service we received in November 2019 upon my father in law's passing.
