Methodology
Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through our fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2).
8 of the 24 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 16 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 0 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere.
The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in GBP (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 74 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded.
The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): The FCA Register's authorised funeral plan providers joined to each provider's own published plan tiers, giving a board nobody publishes: price per tier, what the tier includes against a fixed checklist (collection hours, coffin, hearse, attended or unattended, ashes return, third-party allowance and whether it is CPI-linked or capped), the TRUE cost of paying monthly (the instalment charge as an APR-equivalent, which is where a GBP 1,799 plan becomes GBP 2,400), the cancellation fee, and the gap between the plan price and the same provider's at-need price from dataset 1 - the single figure that answers whether a plan is worth it.
Plus the count authorised, the count publishing a price versus quote-only, and repriced-since.
A firm selling plans that is NOT on the Register is published as the warning it is.
74 candidate sentences on these pages were refused by a reviewer; each refusal and its reason is recorded in the review ledger.
